  25. what happens to the junctional epithelium as eruption occurs, during eruption, full eruption and attachemtn migration?
    • as eruption occurs it attaches to the enamel
    • during eruption it migrates toward the CEJ

  26. when does the junctional epithelium recede?
    when you get disease you get attachment loss
  27. if you get attachement loss of the junctional epithelium what happens?
    disease gets into the PDL and into the bone and causes bone loss

    • anterior line is scalloped
    • posterior line fairly straight
  39. what is the contrast seen at the mucogingival junction?

    • and the alveolar mucosa is darker
  40. where is the mucogingival junction located?
    facial of all quadrants and lingual surface of mandibular arch (no maxillary arch)
  41. do you have a mucogingival junction on the lingual of the maxillary arch
    no
  42. why don't you have a mucogingival junction on the ____ _____?
    • lingual maxillary
    • because the hard palate doesn't have alveolar mucosa
  43. what type of tissue is movable tissue that is loosely attached to the underlying bone, it has a smooth, shiny surface.
    alveolar mucosa
  44. is alveolar mucosa keratinzed or nonkeratinized?
    nonkeratinized
  45. t/f the underlying vessels may be seen through alveolar mucosa
    true
  46. what is a narrow fold of mucous membrane that passes from a more fixed to a movable part?
    frena/frenum
  47. what is the function of the frena/frenum
    check undue movement
  48. where are the frena/frenum located?
    • maxillary and mandibular anterior-lips
    • lingual-tongue
