Q

what is the purpose of cyanoacrylate

A
  • placed over wound site
  • polymerizes in the presence of moisture
  • forms a PROTECTIVE COATING
17
Q

what are the adv and disadv of cyanoacrylate monomer?

A

adv

  • good biocompatilbity (only butyl and isobutyl forms)
  • good tissue adherence
  • biodegradable–>wound heals and it breaks down
  • provides hemostasis
  • bacteriostatic
  • easy to apply (to small surfaces)
  • shortens operation time

disadv:

  • difficult to apply to large wounds
  • is toxic in methyl form
18
Q

what is n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate and what is it used for?

A

a tissue adhesives, not cytotoxic –> can be used instread of stitches and parrier from food/debris during the healing period

19
Q

what are the absorbable sutures?

A

PGA
PDO
catgut

20
Q

what are the non-absorbable sutures?

A

silk
polyester
nylon

21
Q

what is an important benefit of an alloplast?

A

do not pose the risk of transmitting disease

22
Q

what is guided tissue regeneration?

A

undesired cells excluded from repopulating a defects or injury site by placing a physical barrier; desriable cells can enter

23
Q

describe cell induction as tissue regeneration?

A

growth and differentiation factors are injected; can also create gene vectors and cause growth/diff factors to be produced endogenously

24
Q

describe cells as a scaffolding matrix as a strategy for tissue engineering

A

preformed scaffolds are seeded with cells from a pt; grown in vitro –> increase in # of cells–> start producing matrix; with enough growth, implanted back into pt, cells grow and develop into tissues; scaffold resorbs and leaves no former prescence

25
Q

strategries for tx engineering?

A
  1. injection of cells – right at site of injury
  2. guided tissue regeneration
  3. cell induction –
  4. cells in a scaffold matrix
26
Q

what does SIBLINGs stand for

A

small integrin bindin ligand, N-linked glycoprotein

  • includes bone sialoprotein (BSP),
  • osteopontin (OPN)
  • dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP)
  • dentin-matrix protein 1 (DMP-1)
  • matrix extrecellular pohosphoprotein (MEPE)
  • noncollagenous
  • mediate cell adhesion
27
Q

what does allotropic mean?

A

that an element can exist in different physical forms

28
Q

what materials are used in perio, and for what purpose?

A

used to promote healing

  • ZOE
  • Non-eugenol (zinc polyacrylate, resin)

cyanoacrylate molecule
