Relative Contraindications to Periodontal Surgery

A

    B. Recent history of myocardial infarction
    C. Uncontrolled diabetes
    D. Certain bleeding disorders
    E. Kidney dialysis
    F. History of radiation to the jaws
    G. HIV infection
  2. Patients totally non-compliant with self-care.
  3. Patients with a high risk for dental caries.
  4. Patients with unrealistic expectations.
79
Q

what is root SENSITIVITY cause by

A
  1. Exposure of root surfaces (previously covered by gingiva) to the oral environment.
  2. Apically positioned periodontal flaps,
  3. Gingival shrinkage during healing,
  4. Root planning with cementum removal
  5. Dentinal tubules exposed to the oral environment and hydrodynamic forces.
80
Q

Treatment of Tooth Sensitivity:

A

Home Fl gels/rinses for 1 month post operatively (containing potassium nitrate)
At Office- application of topical desensitizing agents containing potassium oxalate or ferric oxalate
Sensitivity usually diminishes in 1-2 months

81
Q

what can cause the tooth to become mobile

A

periodontal surgery as the result of swelling of the periodontal ligament.
OR Removal of calculus bridge.

82
Q

Healing After Periodontal Surgery

A

Blood clot forms at the surgical site.
The blood clot acts as a matrix or scaffolding.
Should be thin.
Firm pressure helps thin the clot, decrease bleeding, and approximate the edges of the flap.

83
Q

Four Potential Sources of Cells in a Healing Periodontal Surgical Wound

A

Gingival Epithelium
Gingival Connective Tissue
Bone Cells
Periodontal Ligament Cells

84
Q

what are the 4 Categories for healing

A

Repair
Reattachment
New Attachment
Regeneration

85
Q

In the category of repair what does not form

A

new bone, new cementum, or PDL during the healing process.

86
Q

what category is Healing of a periodontal wound by the reunion of the connective tissue and root surface where they have been separated by incision or injury – NOT by disease.

A

reattachment

87
Q

Describes the union of a pathologically exposed root with connective tissue or epithelium (where periodontitis had previously destroyed this attachment.)

A

new attachment

88
Q

this results in the regrowth of the precise tissues that were present before the disease or damage occurred. (ie. Reformation of lost cementum, lost PDL, and lost alveolar bone.)

A

Healing by regeneration

89
Q

Can be accomplished with modern periodontal surgical procedures but cannot be regenerated predictably in all sites.

A

regeneration

90
Q

what are the 3 forms of healing

A

Primary Intention
Secondary Intention
Tertiary Intention

91
Q

what form of healing is this Wound margins and edges are closely adapted to each other. Heals Quickly
(Ex. Flap surgery-incisional flap)

A

primary intention

92
Q

what type of graft Obtain their nutrients by diffusion for the first 2 weeks after surgery from the prepared site.

A

free gingival graft

93
Q

Wound margins are not close to each other.
Heals more slowly
A large clot must form over the entire surface
Epithelial cells must migrate long distances.
Can result in more post-operative pain.
(Ex. Gingivectomy-Excisional removal of tissue.)

A

secondary intention

94
Q

Wound temporarily left open with the intention of closing at a later date.

A

Tertiary Intention

95
Q

Window-like openings in the alveolar bone over a root surface

A

Fenestration

96
Q

Root is denuded of bone and portions of the root surface are covered only by soft tissue. Characterized by a long, narrow defect of bone.

A

Dehiscence

97
Q

refers to a fissure in the gingival tissues and may be caused by abnormal frenula, trauma from occlusion, or pierce related trauma.

A

Gingival cleft

98
Q

a severe abscess or multiple boil in the skin, typically infected with staphylococcus bacteria.

A

Carbuncle

99
Q

what are the 2 techniques for removal of aberrant fremun

A

frenoectomy

frenectomy

100
Q

this refers to the complete removal of the frenum, including its attachment to the underlying bone

A

frenectomy

101
Q

this is the incision of the frenum, it usually is done to relocate the frenal attachment so as to create a zone of attacked gingiva between the gingival margin and the frenum

A

frenoctomy

102
Q

is a specializeddentalprocedure, whereby one rootis removed from a multi-roottooth. The tooth is then stabilized and rendered fully functional with a crown or filling.

A

Root amputation

103
Q

This procedure may be successful to maintain teeth where bone loss has exposed the furcation. Treatment also involves treating the pulp of the tooth with root canal therapy and placement of a crown.

A

Root amputation
