Q

Stage I (____) of gingivitis
clinical signs =
pathological events =

A

(Initial)
clinical = none
pathological = migration of PMNs into CT, plasma leaks, gingival fluid flows in pocket, T lymphocytes predominate

24
Q

Stage II (____) of gingivitis
clinical signs =
pathological events =

A

(early)
clinical = redness, loss of stippling, BOP, exudate
pathological = increase in T lymphocytes, crevicular fluid incr, collagen destroyed, fibroblasts destroyed, length of JE disrupted

25
Stage III (____) of gingivitis clinical signs = pathological events =
(established) clinical = redness, increased PD, exudate formation, tissue swelling pathological = capillaries proliferate, T and B lymphocytes in equal numbers, edema incr
26
Stage IV (____) of gingivitis clinical signs = pathological events =
(Advanced) clinical = similar to Stage III pathological = destructive changes into bone and periodontal tissues
27
necrotizing gingivitis (NG) is associated with...
- smokers - debilitated individuals under stress - poor OH - nutritional deficiencies - immunodeficiency - AKA trench mouth
28
NG symptoms, clinical signs, Tx
``` symptoms = pain, bleeding gingiva, foul breath clinical = punched out papilla, profuse bleeding, fever, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes Tx = gentle debridement over a few days, antibiotics ```
29
Necrotizing stomatitis signs/symptoms
- severe tissue necrosis - extends tongue, cheek, palate - most severe and rarest form of NP
30
necrotizing periodontitis symptoms, clinical signs, Tx
symptoms = fetid odor, metallic taste, fever clinical signs = pseudomembrane (grayish tissue slough), easily wiped away, swollen lymph nodes Tx = control of acute condition with antibiotics, CHS, frequent recall, debridement (w/ anesthesia), possible surgery
31
NP results in _______ and _____
loss of attachment and alveolar bone loss
32
NP without treatment = | NP with treatment =
``` without = chronic phase; recurs; possible periodontal disease over time with = tissue may return to normal, require surgery if papilla not recovered ```
33
dyscrasias/leukemia-associated gingivitis features and Tx
``` features = associated w abnormal function/# of blood cells, exaggerated inflammatory response to plaque, palatal petechia & ecchymosis Tx = NSPT, systemic antibiotics, CHX, OHI ```
