Module M1 Perio disease

  1. Periodontal disease is an
    infectious disease process that involves inflammation and affects the structures of the periodontium
  2. What are the components of the periodontium
    • 1.Gingiva
    • 2.Periodontal ligament
    • 3.Cementum
    • 4.Alveolar bone
  3. Periodontal disease can cause a breakdown of the periodontium resulting in
    loss of tissue attachment and destruction of the alveolar bone
  4. Tissue ____ the bone so if there is ______ there is bone loss
    • follows
    • recession
  5. Periodontal diseases are the leading cause of
    tooth loss in adults
  6. Almost ___% of American adults have some form of periodontal disease
    75%
  7. periodontal disease may actually increase a patient’s susceptibility to certain systemic conditions such as
    • –Cardiovascular disease
    • –Preterm low birth weight
    • –Respiratory disease
  8. _______ IS THE ETIOLOGY OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE
    DENTAL PLAQUE
  9. Risk Factors (Contributing Factors) for Periodontal Disease
    • Smoking
    • Diabetes
    • Poor Oral Hygiene
    • Osteoporosis
    • HIV/AIDS
    • Medications
    • Stress
  10. What medication is known to cause an overgrowth of tissue
    Dilantin
  11. Signs and Symptoms of Periodontal Disease
    • Red, swollen, or tender gingiva
    • Bleeding gingiva while brushing or flossing
    • Loose or separating teeth
    • Pain or pressure when chewing
    • Pus around the teeth or gingiva
  12. What is the Gingival Sulcus
    The space between the free gingiva and the tooth surface
  13. Periodontal pocket
    a gingival sulcus that has been deepened by disease
  14. All gingival pockets are
    suprabony
  15. Gingival pocket
    • pocket formed by gingival enlargement without apical migration of the junctional epithelium
    • –Known as a pseudopocket
  16. Suprabony pocket
    the base of the pocket is coronal to the alveolar bone crest
  17. Intra or Infrabony pocket
    base is below the alveolar bone crest
  18. What are the three parts of a pocket
    • Inner Boundary
    • Outer Boundary
    • Base Boundary
  19. Inner boundary of a pocket
    the tooth surface (inner wall).
  20. Outer boundary of a pocket
    sulcular epithelium or pocket epithelium (outer wall).
  21. Base boundary of  a pocket
    where the inner and outer walls meet at the base of the pocket
  22. explain the beginning stage of a gingival pocket
    Bacteria produces toxins, enzymes and there is an invasion of the sulcular epithelium
  23. Iatrogenic dentistry
    –Damage caused by the clinician or by the patient.
  24. What are four factors of gingival inflammation
    • Bacterial plaque
    • Host response
    • Iatrogenic dentistry
    • Systemic factors
  25. What is the Role of Calculus and Periodontal Disease
    • Provides a haven for plaque and it is irritating
    • Provides a permeable surface that can store toxic irritants
    • Calculus is covered by plaque
  26. Describe Periodontal Case Type I (PC-1)– Gingivitis
    • Image Upload 2
    • The crest of the alveolar bone is located very close to the crowns, only 1 to 2 mm apical to the CEJ
  27. Describe Periodontal Case Type II (PC-2) – Mild Periodontitis
    Image Upload 4
  28. Describe Periodontal Case Type III (PC-3) Moderate Periodontitis
    Image Upload 6
  29. Describe Periodontal Case Type IV (PC-4) Advanced Periodontitis
    Image Upload 8
