hyperemia DEF
increased blood flow
symptoms causes inflammation
injured tissues
leads to redness
what cells undergo margination and pavementing in the walls of the blood vessels in inflammation
neutrophils
what cells are the 1st responders in acute inflammation, what are the names?
leukocytes
pmn
what do pmn’s primarily do during their short life in the acute inflammation cycle?
phagocytosis
of microorganisms and tissue debris
gland that secrets prostaglandins that lead to fever producing substances
hypothalamus
inflammation WBC that typically #4000-10000 reach a point of 10000-30000, what is this referred to as?
leukocytosis
inflammation, what is it called when superficial lymph nodes become enlarged and palpable
lymphadenopathy
what is the name of the protein that can be used as a “marker” for perio disease
C- reactive protein
what does an anti-inflammatory drug do when taken during inflammation
inhibit production of prostaglandin in the hypothalamus
hyperplasia DEF
increase in # of cells
hypertrophy DEF
increase in size
atrophy DEF
decrease in size and function of cells
regeneration DEF
back to normal
repair regarding injured tissue DEF
repair damage greater can’t regenerate left with a scar
healing response 1
minor injury
small clot
no scar
healing response 2
larger trauma
larger clot
scar left
healing response 3
great trauma/ risks infection
wound left open to prevent infection while healing
what is it called when there is excessive scar tissue
keloid
factors affect healing
local and systemic factors in addition to addition to tobacco and drug use
what are the cells that promote bone growth?
osteoblasts
osseointegration
factors that can delay or inhibit bone growth
blood supply edema infection injury nutrition age tobacco use
6 injuries to teeth
