Periodontitis Flashcards
Main difference between peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis
Peri-implantitis have bone loss. Both have bleeding, inflammation of the gingiva, increased probing depths, and suppuration,
Stage is based on
Severity, complexity and extent
Grade is based on
disease progression
For deep narrow infra-bony defect,
guided tissue regeneration
Gingivectomy when?
eliminate supra bony pockets and/or gingival enlargements
(contraindicated for deep bony defects)
Osseous surgery
shallow infra-bony defects less than or equal to 3 mm, early furcation involvement and crown lengthening.
What is low-dose doxycline called
periostat
what does periostat do and how?
oral med to assist in resolution of periodontal disease. works by inhibit collagenase. : destroy peptide bonds present in collagen, leading to their degradation
prognosis based on what?
CAL, furcation involvement and tooth mobility
What is appropriate tx for patient with deeper pocket depths on molar-incisor periodontitis (aggressive and advanced)
Sc/rp +antibiotics
most common antibiotics used in crevicular fluid
doxyxycline
What is ferrule? and how many mm required
circumferential band of axial tooth structure in crown preparations that helps prevent tooth fracture.
At least 1.5 mm to 2.0 mm of circumferential coronal tooth structure must be maintained to restore the tooth.
Ideal Crown: root for best prognosis
1:2
Know all phases of perio?
phase 0: emergencey
phase 1: sc/rp, caries
phase 2: Periodontal tissue regeneration, implant placement
Phase 3: Crowns, bridges, dentures
Phase 4: OHI, perio exam
The most common allergens found in toothpaste
