Q

It the probe passes completely through the furcation it would be classified as a _____ furcation involvement.

A

Class III

17
Q

This furcation involvement is the same as class III, except entrance to furcation is clinically visible because of recession of the gingival margin.

A

Class IV

18
Q

What are assessment components requiring calculations?

A

Width of attached gingiva, mucogingival defects and

CAL

19
Q

What is the function of the attached gingiva?

A

Keeps the free gingiva from being pulled away from the tooth

20
Q

What is the formula for calculating the width of the attached gingiva?

A
  1. Measure from the gingival margin to the mucogingival junction to obtain total width of the attached gingiva.
  2. Measure the pocket depth.
  3. Subtract the pocket depth from the total width of the AG
21
Q

To determine the ____, estimate of the periodontal support around the tooth as measured with a periodontal probe

A

Clinical Attachment Level

22
Q

________ is measured from the gingival margin to the base of the sulcus or periodontal pocket; whereas, the
______ is measured from a fixed point—usually the CEJ—to the base of the sulcus or periodontal pocket

A

Probing depths; CAL

23
Q

For ______ the position of the gingival margin may change with tissue swelling or recession.

A

probing depths

24
Q

What is the significance of the CAL?

A
  1. It is a more accurate indicator of the periodontal support around a tooth than probing depth measurement.
  2. It provides an accurate means to monitor changes in periodontal support over time
25
Q

______ is a critical factor in distinguishing between gingivitis and periodontitis.

A

Loss of attachment (LOA)

26
Q

_______ recession is isolated to the facial surface and the interdental papillae. This type of recession does not extend to the mucogingival line.

A

Miller Class I Defect

27
Q

_______ recession is isolated to the facial surface and the papillae remain intact and fill the interdental spaces. This type of recession extends to or beyond the mucogingival line into the mucosa

A

Miller Calss II Defect

28
Q

______ recession is quite broad with the interdental papilliae missing due to damage from disease. This type of recession extends beyond the MG line into the mucosa.

A

Miller Class III Defect

29
Q

______ recession extends to or beyond the MGJ with severe loss of interproximal alveolar bone resulting in open interdental areas.

A

Miller Class IV Defect

30
Q

When are probing depth measurements are completed?

A

With the comprehensive dental exam. It is completed annually on ALL patients.

It is completed at every visit for periodontal maintenance patients

31
Q

At SPC, all new patient exams are completed _____.

A

37
Q

On the PSR probe, the bands are located at ______ mm to ______ mm.

A

3.5 to 5.5

38
Q

What are the three types of supplemental diagnostic tests for patients that have refractory forms of periodontitis?

A
  1. tests related to bacteria
  2. tests that analyze GCF
  3. tests for genetic susceptibility for periodontal disease.
