Trauma II Flashcards
What are the two ways to perserve pulp vitality
pulp capping
partial pulpotomy
What is the treatment of choice in a tooth with an enamel/dentin/pulp fracture with a closed apex
RCT
What are the condiitons required for a Cvek pulpotomy
- Vital root
- No adverse symptoms
- No radiographic pathology
What is a critical factor for Cvek pulpotomy success
degree of pulp inflammation
Up to _ days between the time of trauma and Cveck treatment there will be little effect on the success
9
The size of the exposure doesn’t affect the success of a Cvek pulpotomy as long as it is less than _mm
4
Cvek pulpotomy has a better chance of success with a (open/closed) apex
open
Inflammed pulp tissue for a Cvek is removed up to _-_mm
1-3mm (until pulpal hemorrhage stops
Steps of a Cvek
- Inflammed pulp tissue removal
- Control pulpal bleeding
- Bacteriocidal irrigant (bleech and chlorhexidine)
- Cover pulp with CaOH and MTA
- GI
- Restore
Inflammed pulp should be removed with (slow speed/high speed)
high speed
To achieve proper hemostasis bleeding should stop after - min
3-5 min if it takes longer the pulp is deemed unhealthy
Which has the capacity to induce hard-tissue formation? Which has a high pH
both
What are the advatages of MTA over CaOH
- Dentin bridge forms faster
- Resistance to bacterial leakage
- Requires moisture to set (good to place over a bleeding pulp)
Which form of caOH is not sensitive to moisture
paste form
What is the success rate of Cvek pulpotomies in PERMENANT teeth
94-96%
What is the most commonly avulsed tooth
maxillary central incisor
What is the most common age to avulse a tooth and why
7-9 because the PDL is loosely structured and the bone is low mineralization
A (rigid/flexible) splint is used for avulsed teeth
flexible
What are the two types of pathology associated with tooth replantation
-Pulpal and periodontal reaction
T/F Prognosis of the avulsed tooth doesn’t change when the time out of the socket increases
f- worsens the longer it is out of the tooth
