30
Q

As fibers are compressed due to OT, ____ is reduced

31
Q

Compression side results in loss of:

A

fiber orientation

32
Q

Compression side results in increased capillary permeability, rupture of blood vessels and hemorrhage into PDL perivascular spaces ultimately resulting in:

33
Q

T/F: With compression, resorption of alveolar bone proper (root resorption if severe) and widening of the PDL will occur

34
Q
  • increased capillary permeability, dilation
  • edema, disturbed fluid exchange
  • vascular damage with stasis, clotting, thrombosis
  • lowered periodontal resistance
  • accompany tissue effects, usually inor
A

minor trauma from occlusion

35
Q

What happens to the PDL on the tension side?

A

lengthening resulting in increased in PDL space

36
Q

Lengthening occurs on the tension side resulting in:

A

increased PDL space

37
Q
  • increase in PDL space
  • Rupture of PDL fiber bundles
  • Compression of PDL blood vessels and hemmorheage in perivascular
  • Deposition of new alveolar bone and DECREASE in PDL space (if severe, cemental tears)
A

Tension side

38
Q

This act results in RESORPTION of alveolar bone proper and WIDENING of the PDL space (root resorption if severe):

This act results in DEPOSITION of new alveolar bone and DECREASE of the PDL (if severe cemental tears)

A

compression side

tension side

39
Q
  • Crushing (pressure injury)- necrosis at furca, alveolar crest
  • Extravasated RBCs, hematoma, necrosis, & vascular damage
A

SEVERE trauma from occlusion

40
Q

Traumatic occlusal forces applied to tooth or teeth with NORMAL periodontal support

A

PRIMARY occlusal trauma

41
Q

What is the manifestation of PRIMARY occlusal trauma?

A

adaptive mobility (NOT PROGRESSIVE OR PATHOLOGIC)

example: Hyper occlusion

42
Q

NORMAL or TRAUMATIC occlusal forces applied to a tooth or teeth with REDUCED peridontial support

A

SECONDARY occlusal trauma

43
Q

What is the manifestation of SECONDARY occlusal trauma?

A

The PDL is thickest at the ___ &___

A

apices & alveolar crest (0.20mm)

59
Q

What is the measurement of the PDL at the mid root?

60
Q

What is the biggest contraindication to occlusal adjustment?

A

WHen periodontal inflammation has NOT been controlled

(other contraindications include)
- abscence of pre-treatment diagnosis
- prophylactic therapy or sole treatment of periodontal disease
- as primary treatment of bruxism
- severe extrusion or malpositioned teeth

61
Q

T/F: Tooth mobility positively affects the outcome of periodontal therapy and maintenenance

A

FALSE- negatively affects

62
Q

T/F: Tooth mobility will generally decrease once inflammation is controlled

63
Q

Occlusal adjustment is best done in conjunction with:

A

periodontal therapy

64
Q

Hypefunction is a slight increase in occlusal force. This is considered to be a ____ adaptation

A

PHYSIOLOGIC

65
Q

Trauma from occlusion in the absence of inflammation does NOT cause:

A
  1. gingivitis
  2. peridontitis
  3. pocket formation
66
Q

T/F: There is NO EVIDENCE that TOF causes non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Most studies use finite element analysis

67

A
  1. abrasion
  2. erosion
  3. corrosion
68
