Q

What are the three set parameters?

A

1) rate of periodontitis progression;
2) recognized risk factors for periodontitis progression;
3) risk of an individual’s case affecting the systemic health

16
Q

What is the rate of disease progression?

A
  • Change or advancement of destruction as compared from previous visit
  • Slow rate of progression: May be modified by systemic/environmental/ factors
  • Current view
    1. Destruction not continuous
    1. Occurs in short bursts with destruction
    1. Random occurrence over time
    1. Random sites in mouth
17
Q

What is increased disease progression ?

A
  1. Rapid progressive lesions
    * Interproximal areas
    * Areas of greater plaque accumulation
    * Areas inaccessible to plaque control
    *. Furcations
    * Overhangs
    * Malposed teeth
    * Areas of food impaction
  2. U nequal rate of progression of affected sites
18
Q

What are the predictors or disease progression?

A
  • Previous history of periodontitis (risk determinant)
  • Greater risk for progressive disease
    If not successfully treated
    Plaque allowed to accumulate in a treated patient
  • Importance of monitoring and maintenance
19
Q

What are the primary Criteria for grading?

A
  • Direct evidence of progression
  • Indirect evident of progression
20
Q

What are some grading modifiers?

A
  • risk factors like smoking diabetes
21
Q

What are the causes of periodontitis ?

A
  • Pathogenic bacteria
  • Destruction consistent with local factors
  • Oneset and severity determined by: plaque biofilm, host immune response interaction and evironment
22
Q

What are the symptoms of periodontitis?

A

▪ Red or swollen gingiva

▪ Bad taste

* Gingival tenderness or itching

Clinically:
