Q

Result of injury or manifestation of the normal aging process

A

SCLEROTIC DENTIN

38
Q

True or false

The presence of dead tracts and sclerotic dentin is one reason why teeth that has attrition or abrasion will not have sensitivity because the areas are protected by these two areas especially the sclerotic dentin

A

True

39
Q

MECHANISMS FOR SCLEROTIC DENTIN

A
  1. Increased deposition of intratubular dentin
  2. Tubule occlusion by precipitated mineral (whitlockite)
    crystals
40
Q

Fat droplet depositionk

A

Fatty degeneration

41
Q

Earliest histology change that occurs int e pulp
tissue

A

Fatty degeneration

42
Q

Just like in vacuolization but you have an increase in intercellular fluid but this time, because of _____________ the fibers in your pulp will look like as if they’re knitted.

A

Reticular atrophy

43
Q

thickening or increase in number

A

Pulpal Fibrosis

44
Q

REGRESSIVE CHANGES IN THE PULP

A
  1. Fatty degeneration
  2. Vacuolization of Odontoblastic layer
  3. Reticular atrophy
  4. Pulpal Fibrosis
  5. Denticles/ Pulp Stone
45
Q

Hardened or mineralized structures found within your pulp area

A

PULP STONE / DENTICLES

46
Q

Why are they called denticles?

A

Their structure on a cross section can resemble your
dentinal structure.

47
Q

o In cross section resembles dentin
o Since these are mineralized structures, it appears
radiopaque or white in radiographs.

A

True denticle

48
Q

Doesn’t resemble dentin.

A

False denticle

49
Q

Found free located in the pulp tissue.

A

Free

50
Q

Part of it is in the pulp tissue, part of it is in the
dentin surface

  • dislocation of tooth from sockets
  • presence of sensitivity to percussion, increased mobility but no displacement
A

LUXATION

76
Q

“Loosen”

A

LUXATION

77
Q
  • break in the continuity of dental hard tissues
  • will appear greyish or radioluscent
A

FRACTURE

78
Q

(root has severe abrupt curves along the root)
- deformity of tooth characterized by a sharp bend at the neck or root part of the tooth
- happens when developing tooth undergo some form of traume during developing stage

A

Dilaceration

Q
  • forceful displacement of a tooth from the socket
A

Avulsion

80
Q

True or false

Avulsed teeth depending on the time can not be returned to
the socket

A

False

Avulsed teeth depending on the time can still be returned to
the socket
