What do we do for documentation?
Reference
History
Educational
Medical and legal
What do take for medical history ?

- Aids Clinician
- Verified with interview
What do we take for Dental History ?
Chief Complaints
All dental past and present history
ORal practices
Habits
Why do we do EO/IO?
To know the presence of path
What are the gingival caracteristics?
Color
Contour
Consistency
Texture
What does OH assess?
Plaque
Calculus
Tooth Topograghy
Stain
What are the different types of stains?
Brown: Tobacco and Stainous Flouride
Green: Enamel cuticle, flurorescent bacteria
Orange : Chromogenic bacteria
Black: Ferric Sulfide (With Good Oral Hygiene)
What is Probing depth ?
- Support treatment decisons
- Cannot detect disease activity or predict destruction
What are the furcation involvement grades?
Grade I- Interradicular bone intact
Grade II- Interradicular bone loss
Grade III- Complete loss no communication to otherside
Grade IV- Loss attachment and gingival recession
FITS
What are the mobilty grade?
Grade 0; physiological
1: Slight BL
2: Moderate BL
3: Severe BL, MD and depression
What is Fremitus?
Vibrational movement- only maxillary teeth tested
What is the G.V blacks classifications?
- Class 1: Pits and fissures
- Class 2: Proximal areas Premolars and molars
- Class 3: Proximal incisors and Canine ( No edge)
- Class 4: Proximal incisors and Canine ( with edge)
- Class 5: Gingival third cavities
- Class 6: Incisal and cusp tip
What type of epithelium is the gingiva?
Stratified squamous epithelium
What is the gingival epithelium?
Protection of underlying structures
What are the epithelial layers of the oral cavity?
- Corneum
- Granulosum
- Spinosum
- Basal
- Lamina propria
What are the major cell types within the mouth?
- Kerotinocytes- Responsible for color
- Melanocytes- Dendritic cell and synthesizes melanin
- Langerhans cells- Spinosum, phagocytes: early defense
- Merkel cell- touch cell
What are the sulcular epithelium?
- Lines the gingival sulcus
- Acts as a semipermeable membrane
What is the Junctional epithelium?
- As two layers: Basale and spinosum
- Attached by epithelial attachment
- Basement lamina and hemidesmosomes from enamels
What are the turn over time ?
Palate , tongue, cheek: 5-6 days
Gingiva: 10-12 days
JE: 4.7 days
What does the disease needs to developement ?
Causative Agent
Environment
Host
Bacterial plaque contributes to periodontal breakdown by:
Direct injury to tissues
Indirect activation of host immune and inflammatory systems
What are the host responses?
- Protective: defence mechanism
- Destructive: Tissue destruction
What are the stages of inflammation ?
- Immediate
- Acute
- Chronic
- All is controlled by granulocytes and agranulocytes
