Perio Final Flashcards
(117 cards)
What are the four components of P I C O
P = problem or population, I = intervention (what are you going to do), C = compassion = comparing two or more approaches to the problem, O = outcome (see results)
EB DM is used to sub what kind of problem
Clinical
What kind of study offers the highest quality research
Systemic reviews of random controlled studies
Systemic review
Focused question Search method stated Studies selected by criteria rigorous appraisal database conclusion, may include meta analysis
Traditional (narrative) review
Question broad in scope search method not stated no key criteria selected variable critical appraisal opinion based conclusion
What is the purpose of oral irrigation
An adjunct of method for the arrest and control of gingival infections as it targets the loosely attached bacterial plaque and lowers the bacterial level in the oral cavity through disrupting microbial colonization.
Modes are both power driven and manual (water piks, ultrasonics, and manuals syringes with cannula)
Characteristics of an effective mouth rinse
Non-toxic or toxicity (will not damage tissue)
None or limited absorption (absorbed through G.I. tract; confined to oral cavity)
Substantivity (Peridex, CHX), (ability to bind to the pellicle and tooth surface and be released over a period of time)
Bacterial specificity or high potency
Low induced drug resistance
Definition of controlled drug release agents
Intercrevicular medication that is professionally placed and provides delivery of a drug over a substained period of time
What is the advantage of controlled drug release agents
Drug delivers 1000 times the concentration of GCF but only 1/100 of this is systemic dose reaches the rest of the body
What are the bacteria associated with periodontal disease
Read complex bacteria (most periodontal pathogenic bacteria I gram-negative, non-motile and anaerobic)
What are the three major organisms found in 98% of periodontal diseases
- Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (Aa)
- Porphyromanas gingivalis (Pg)
- Prevotella intermedia (Pi)
Others are: camplylobacter recta eikenella corrodens, fusobacterium nucliatum, spirochetes, bacteroikes forsynthus
What are the dental hygienist role?
Recognize, record, referred
Orthofunction (physiologic occlusion)
Health and comfort, no pathologic changes in the oral tissues
Dysfunction (morphofunctional disharmony)
Often a result of para functional activities = grinding, clenching, activities which stress the system
What is the range of morphofunctional harmony to disharmony
Dependent on the adaptive capabilities of the individuals oral system. When the para functional activities exceed what the system can sustain, dysfunctional results
Traumatic occlusion
Occlusion which has caused injury to the teeth, muscles or TMJ
Primary dramatic inclusion
Heavy occlusal forces exceed the adaptive range in normal periodontium, causing injury to the tissues and bone. The bite causes the injury
Secondary traumatic occlusion
Normal occlusal forces exceeded the capability of a periodontium already affected by disease. (The bite alters tissues already compromised.)
What does EBDM stand for
Evidence-based decision-making
What are the Primary Signs and Symptoms of TMJ Disorders?
- pain in muscles (myalgia)most common
- pain in TMJ (arthralgia)
- painful clicking of the joint in function (crepitus)
- limited range of motion (incoordination of joint)
Additional symptoms of TMJ include?
- uncomfortable bite
- incoordination of the jaw (dyskinesia)
- ringing in the ears
- muscles swelling
- clinical signs of tooth wear, mobility and pulpitis
TMJ disorders
Musculoskeletal conditions that produce pain and or dysfunction of the masticatory system.
- Extracapsular- involves muscle not joint
- Intracapsular- occuring in the TMJ
If you have one or more symptoms of TMJ does not indicate a?
Positive diagnosis
Oral habits
repetitive masticatory activities. tooth-to-tooth or tooth-to-object. Wear faucets
