Abrasion
- Wound caused by Friction b/w Object + Surface of Soft Tissue
- Superficial,
- Denudes Epithelium,
- Involve Deep Layers (Sometimes)
Abutment
- Connecting Element
- If in a Fixed Bridge (the teeth Supporting Bridge)
- If in a Partial Removable Denture (the teeth Supporting Partial)
- If in a Implant (the teeth attach to a Crown, Bridge, Removable Denture)
Acute Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis (ANUG)
- A Microbial Inflammatory Destructive Dx. of Gingiva
- Impaired Host Response (chara: Death & Sloughing of Gingival Tissue)
- ANUG occurs when harmful bacteria OVERGROW in the mouth, particularly in the GUM TISSUE. This usually happens due to factors such as poor oral hygiene, stress, a weakened immune system, smoking, or nutritional deficiencies.
Acute Pulpitis
- Severely Painful
- IRREVERSIBLE Acute Inflammation of Pulp @ inside tooth
Aggressive Periodontitis ***
PPLOh - PoMXB ((notes))
- Low, Adolescence
- Rapid
- Incisor/Molar
- Fair
- Narrow/Deep
- Early
- I - Horizontal, M - Vertical
- A. actinomycetemcomitans
Alveolar Bone
Portion of Maxilla and Mandible that Forms and Support TOOTH SOCKETS
Ameloblastoma **
- Benign/Cancerous Tumour of ODONTOGENIC EPITHELIUM
- More common @ Lower下 Jaw
Anachoresis
- Localization of Blood-borne Bacteria @ Pulp
- Thus, Pulp become Necrotic when there’s no Etiologic Fx.
Angle’s Normal Occlusion
Mesiobuccal Cusp of Upper 1st Molar OCCLUDES w/ Buccal Groove of Lower 1st Molar
Angle’s Class I Malocclusion
- Same w/ Normal Occlusion
- Crowding, Rotations, Other Positional Irregularities
Angle’s Class II Malocclusion
Mesiobuccal Cusp of Upper 1st Molar OCCLUDES anterior to Buccal Groove of Lower 1st Molar
The 2 Subtypes of AC II M:
1. Upper Incisors - Tilted OUT (Overjet)
2. Upper Incisores - Labialy
Angle’s Class III Malocclusion
Mesiobuccal Cusp of Upper 1st Molar OCCLUDES posterior to Buccal Groove of Lower 1st Molar
Anterior Deep Overjet
- Extent of Horizontal Overlap of Maxillary Central Incisors over the Mandibular Central Incisors
- Normal Overjet - 2-3 mm
- Overjet >3mm - more likely to suffer injury to their upper incisors
Anterior Deep Overbite
Excessive overlap of Upper Front Teeth (Incisor) OVER Lower Front Teeth when the Jaws are closed. It may be the result from Upward and Forward Rotation of Mandible during growth or from Excessive Eruption of Incisor Teeth
Apexification**
- Procedure that closes End of an Open Tooth Root.
- Required for Treating Permanent Teeth with Incompletely Formed Roots that require Root Canal Therapy
Bacterial Factor
- Most common cause of Endodontic Disease
- Bacterial Invasion from Carious Lesion, Traumatic Exposure or via Dentinal Tubules are the most frequent initial cause of Pulp Inflammation
Bleeding on Probing (BOP)
- For Dx. Periodontal Disease
- Indicate - Gingival Inflammation
- For proper Dx. should combine BOP with Probing Depth, Clinical Attachment Loss
Carbuncle
- Clusters of Furuncles that are Subcutaneously Connected
- Accompanied by Fever and Prostration
Carcinoma In Situ**
Precancerous condition where Abnormal Cells are found ONLY in the SURFACE layer of the ORAL tissues.
Cementum
Specialized tissue that COVERS the ROOTS of teeth. It plays a crucial role in ANCHORING the teeth to the JAWBONE through the attachment of tiny fibers called PERIODONTAL LIGAMENTS.
Concussion of Teeth
Teeth that have received significant hit, but haven’t been knocked out/broken. Cause e.g sports, walking into sth
