Treatment planning 2 Flashcards

1
Q

In the stabilisation stage of treatment planning what occurs

A
  • remove unrestorable teeth and teeth with poor prognosis
  • help patient clean around teeth better and remove infection and pain
  • stabilise active caries lesions
  • patient has anterior teeth caries
  • gignval diseases seen form gingival margin
  • restprae caries cavities with temporary or intermediate restorations
    -Provide patient with multiple treatments to address clinical issues they are presenting
  • establish healthy oral environment

Q

How are patients stabilised in endodontics

A
  • Endodontic treatment carried - abscess /sinus pain
  • pain - pulp was exacerbated
  • endodontic needs to be completed to prevent curter infection to root canal
  • stabilise with intermediate restoration such as crown
  • place semi permanenet restoration

Q

how are patients stabilised when extracting teeth

A
  • provisional and immediate dentures
  • if patient goes through multiple extractions
  • then dentures are considered
  • need to provide aesthetic during the healing process
  • If 1 or 2 teeth are extracted then can wait for denture for teeth to heal
  • if full clearance, need to provide immediate dentures

A
  • include caries removal even if it was partial

Q

what other strategies are used in stabilisation

A
  • preventative advice
    OHI, smoking, Fluroide
    comes from leaflet that is available online
  • evidence supported leaflet
    -caries prevention evidence
  • number 1 category - strong imminence
  • ## show the difference between manual and strong powered toothbrushes

Q

When to proceed tot he next stage after stabilisation

A
  • review patient and evaluate how motivated they are
  • ask about diet
  • evaluate oral hygiene
  • evaluate peirodontium
    -PFS
  • Aim- motivated patient, caries free and high PFS

Q

when is a patient recalled for a review?

A
  • shortest review interval is 3 month

Q

what does corrective therapy consist of

A

placement of permanent or definitive restorations
- stabilising the caries
- placement of percent definitive restorations
- last for few weeks/motnhs
- Direct GIC restorations replaced with composite restoration that recreated fall of molar tooth in addition to having accurate anatomy

Q

what does Re- RCT consist of

A
  • recinducting treatment
  • re root canal treatment
  • GP point extruded- infection associated with that tooth
  • Pain emergency phase
  • root canal was re done to get rid of apical infection
  • right hand side - root canal treatment redone - infection has subsided

Q

what are considerations of reconstructions?

A
  • referrals
  • long term meiantence concerns
  • time to complete treatment
  • availabiilty of patient
    -cost
  • no active disease a patient have

Q

what reconstruction processes could be used for advanced perio

A

crown lenghtneign surgery
- severe tooth wear over erupted teeth
- expose more tooth by crown lengthening surgery
- definitive crowns,onlyas
- provided with amalgam reparations
- cam back for review
crowns or onlays tp provide long term functional stable teeth
- fixed bridge, resin retained, conventional
- definitive partial dentures co/cr
- Direct/ indirect veneers - good moisture control sop no bleeding gums
- dental implants
