Periodontal Phatology Flashcards
(23 cards)
Less evident clinical signs and symptoms
Gingivitis in Smokers
Tobacco noxious chemicals have
2 phases, what are those?
- Gaseous phase - inhaled toxic
irritants/carcinogens - Solid phase
Give atleast 3 Food sources that are rich in prebiotics.
whole grain, honey, banana, garlic, onions, leeks, chicory, and artichokes.
_____________________________________sticks intheir lifetime, currently smokes and can’t stop)
Chronic exposure - smokers; ≥100
increased risk of a number of diseases including heart and chronic kidney disease.
Carnivore diet.
Accumulation -> _______________-> biofilm -> promoting gingivitis to periodontitis
bacterial colonies
____________________orchestrate the host response in periodontitis
Matrix metalloproteinase
MECHANISM OF BONE DESTRUCTION HOST PRODUCE:
● Prostaglandins PGE2
● Interleukin- 1 alpha and beta
● Tumor necrosis factor - alpha
(TNF-alpha) are capable of
producing bone resorption
How can we control immune response?
● Vaccines
● Medicine
● Healthy diet
● Better sleep
● Exercise
Men are known to suffer _____________________ of comparable age. -usually exhibit poorer oral hygiene compared to
females.
greater from gum disease than females
Female releases_____________________________________
Estrogen (predominant sex hormones in
females)
What is Estrogen?
shows immune protective and
anti-inflammatory effects in hormonally active premenopausal women.
Progesterone stimulate the production of the inflammatory
mediator, _______________ and to enhance the accumulation of _____________________ in the gingival sulcus.
prostaglandin E2 and polymorphonuclear
leukocytes
causes inflammation and swelling around the teeth making them susceptible to cavities.
Dihydrotestosterone
produces a chemical called
dihydrotestosterone, which damages the periodontium.
Testosterone
major catecholamines are_______________________________________________________________
epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine.
GIVE ATLEAST 5 FACTORS OF AGING IN PERIODONTAL.
- Gum Recession
- Decreased Blood Flow
- Bone Loss
- Decreased Collagen Production
- Reduced Immune Response
- Medications and Health Conditions
- Tooth Wear and Damage
- Changes in Oral Hygiene Habits
- Dry Mouth
- Periodontal Diseases
____________________________ are the primary mediators of the innate immune response to invading microorganisms.
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes
Low bacteroides
in women than in men
Gut microbiome
Consistent epidemiological data have
highlighted higher periodontitis prevalence in
men as compared to women.
■ Men: ___ %
■ Women: ___%
Men: 57%
Women: 39%
___________ are proteins and proteins are encoded by genes and
so the genetic factor the involvement of genetics in the
pathogenesis of periodontitis was starting to get attention after
the study of cornman and colleagues in ________.
Cytokines ; 1997
Omnivore
protein-rich non vegetarian diet -> neutralize
acid production = less dental caries
Age-related bone loss (___________) can affect the alveolar bone, which supports the teeth.
osteoporosis
