Week 3 Flashcards
what is the origination and development of a disease
pathogenesiis
___ is a complex interplay between subgingival biofilm and host immune inflammatory events that develop in the gingival and periodontal tissues in response to bacterial challenge
periodontitis
what results in the breakdown of fibers of the PDL, clinical attachment loss and resorption of alveolar bone
pathogenesiis
T/F: perioidontal pocket is a favorable environment for bacteria to survive
TRUE
what is part of epithelial portion of dentogingival junction
gingival, sulcular, and junctional epithelium
what are the histologic stages of gingivitis and periodontitis
- know this
- initial lesion
- early lesion
- established lesion
- advanced lesion
what develops within 2-4 days of plaque acclumination
initial lesion
what lesion corresponds to clinically healthy gingival tisssues
initial lesion
what develops after 1 week of continued plaque accumulation
early lesion
what corresponds to early gingiviitis (clinically eviident)
early lesion
what corresponds to established, chronic ginigiivitis
established lesion
what marks the transition from gingivitis to periodontitiis
advanced lesion
what are clinical signs of disease
pocket formation and bone resorptiion
types of immunity
innate and adaptiive
what is part of innate immunity that prevents pathogens from invading cells and tissues of body
- saliva
- epithelial tissues
- gingival crrevicular fluid
- neutrophils
what provide a focused and intense defenses against infections that overwhelm the innate immune respsonsess
adaptive immunity
what is part of adaptive immunity
- antigen presenting cells
- t-cells
- antibodies
what is the primary cause of gingival inflammation
plaque!
can you find calculus supragingivally or subgingival?
BOTH
inorganic composition of calculus
70-90% inorganic
