Q

Guidelines for fundamental decision making

A
  1. ) does the clinical assessment indicate healthy or inflammatory disease?
  2. ) If inflammatory disease is present is it gingivitis or periodontitis?
  3. ) If gingivitis, what type? (Aggressive, localized, etc.)
    - if periodontitis, what type?

25
During NSP the hygienist must make sure
That the pt understand all TX options
26
Informed consent
A patients voluntary agreement to proposed TX
27
Pt can only give informed consent after:
The pt understands the relevant facts, benefits and risks involved
28
The dental professional must inform the patient of these things before they can make an informed consent
1.) recommended TX 2.) alternative TX 3.) the likely consequences of refusing TX. —in a language the patient understands
29
surgical phase of periodontal therapy includes:
Any needed periodontal surgery and placement of dental implants —by needed for all pt’s
30
Surgical therapy is also called
Phase 2.
31
Periodontal maintenance phase includes
All measures used by dental team and patients to keep periodontitis from recurring once the inflammatory disease is under control
32
The point of periodontal maintenance phase is to:
Maintain functioning teeth throughout life and may be needed for there rest of a pts life
33
Difference in periodontitis and gingivitis
Clinical loss of attachment (in periodontitis)
34
Signs of periodontal disease:
Can be observed and are measurable by the clinician
35
Symptoms of periodontal disease:
Features noticed by the patient
36
Hidden signs of inflammation:
Signs that are not visible just by looking in the patients mouth.
37
Hidden signs of inflammation include:
1. ) bone loss 2. ) purulence (exudate) 3. ) bleeding on probing
38
Informed refusal:
A pt has the right to refuse all TX or a portion of the proposed TX —pt always has the right to refuse proposed periodontal care.
39
Questions hygienist can ask to make patients ask more about their care.
Open ended exchange of info and non direct questions (not just yes or no) 1. ) what more would you like to know? 2. ) what are your concerns? 3. ) what is your next question?
40
Chediak-higashi syndrome:
Inherited disorder of immune and nervous systems. | —rare
41
Symptoms of chediak-higashi syndrome
Pale colored hair,eyes and skin | Prone to severe periodontitis
42
Familial and cyclic neutropenia
Hereditary and congenital disorder affecting bone marrow
43
Symptoms of familial and cyclic syndrome
Severe periodontal destruction at a young age | Abnormally low levels of neutrophils.
44
Down syndrome:
Caused by error in cell destruction w: additional 3rd chromosome. 1 in 691 children born with DS. Mild/moderate cognitive effects
45
Most common genetic condition
Down syndrome
46
Symptoms of Down syndrome
Early onset periodontal disease Substantial plaque biofilm formation Deep perio pockets Extensive gingival inflammation
47
Periodontal disease strongly associated with HIV infection
Classified as linear gingival erythema (LGE) but used to be known as HIV associated gingivitis
48
symptoms of LGE
- 2-3 mm band of intense erythema in the free gingiva - May extend into attached gingiva and alveolar mucosa. - may be localized to 1-2 teeth but it’s more common to be generalized.
49
Cytokines
Recruit PMN’s and macrophages to infection site and increase vascular permeability -have potential to initiate tissue destruction and bone loss.
50
Cytokines are associated with
Interleukin 1,6,8 and tumor necrosis factor beta.
51
Prostaglandins
Increase permeability leading to redness and edema of connective tissue. —can trigger osteoclasts
52
What initiates most of alveolar bone destruction
Prostaglandins
53
MMP’s (matrix metalloprotenases)
—In absence of disease: facilitate normal turnover of periodontal connective tissue matrix —in presence of chronic bacterial infection: large amounts released to kill invading bacteria, resulting in enhanced breakdown of connective tissue and periodontium.
54
Increased levels of MMP’s will cause
Extensive collagen destruction
55
Bacterial accumulation: initial lesion
2-4 days after plaque biofilm accumulation. | Gingiva appears healthy clinically
56
Early gingivitis: early lesion
4-7 days after plaque biofilm accumulation. | Edema and redness of gingival marginal tissues can be seen clinically
57
Established gingivitis: established lesion
21 days after plaque biofilm formation. | All clinical feature of gingivitis can be observed clinically
58
Periodontitis: advances lesion
``` Perio pockets formed Bleeding on probing Alveolar bone loss Furcation involvement Tooth mobility Can all be seen clinically ```
59
Phases of management of pts with periodontal disease:
- assessment phase and preliminary therapy - nonsurgucal periodontal therapy - surgical therapy - restorative therapy - periodontal maintenance
60
Assessment phase
``` Health hx Comp. exam Assessment data collection Radiographs Diagnosis of oral conditions TX of urgent conditions Planning of NSP therapy Referral for care of medical conditions Extraction of hopeless teeth ```
61
Surgical therapy
Periodontal surgery Endodontic surgery Dental implant placement
62
Restorative therapy
Dental restorations Fixed and removable prosthesis Re evaluation of overall response to TX
63
Periodontal maintenance
Ongoing care at specified intervals
