chapter 34 radiography

acts as a detector and shows change

changes asociated with what 4 things can be seen on a radiograph

what can be examined with radiographs that cannot be seen clinically (3)

injury produced by an external force

what can trauma affect? (3)

trauma may restult in fractures of teeth and bone and injuries such as (3)

defined as the breaking of a part

fractures may affect (4)

fractures that affect tooth crowns most often inolve

most common fracture

occurs most often in the maxillary central inciosors

with time, root fractures have a tendancy to enlarge bc of (3)

jaw fractures reslult from (3)

film of choice for eval of manibular fractures

tooth displacement involves (2)

abnormal displacement of teeth

refers to the abnormal displacement of teeth into bone

refers to the abnormal displacement of teeth out of bone

teeth that have been luxated should be evaluated by a periapical radiograph and examined for (3)

complete displacement of a tooth from alveolar bone

is an avulsed tooth seen on a radiograph

what do you look for in a tooth socket?

what two types of resporption are associated with teeth?

process that is seen with the normal shedding of primary teeth

regressive alteration of tooth structure that is observed when a tooth is subjected to abnormal stimuli

seen along the periphery of the root surface and is often associated with reimplanted teeth, abnormal mechanical forces, trauma, chronic inflammation, tumors and cysts, impacted teeth, or idiopathic causes.

external resorption most often affects

how does the apical region appear with external resorption

is external resportion detected clinically?

do teeth that have external resportion exibit mobility?

is there effective treatment for external resorption?

occurs within the crown or root of a tooth and involves the pulp chamber, pulp canals, and surrounding dentin

appears as a rount-to-ovoid radiolucency in the midcrown or midroot portion fo a tooth

endodontic therapy may be used for internal resportion when?

when the tooth is weakened what must be done?

what must be obtained before treatment?

what are the common conditions of the pulp cavity seen on radiographs (3)

diffuse calcification of the pulp chamber adn pulp canals of teeth that results in a pulp cavity of decreased size

pulpal sclerosis is associated with?

does not appear to have a pulp chamber or pulp canals

nonvital adn do not require treatment

what irritants to the pulp my stimulate the producation of secondary dentin which obliterates the pulp cavity

calcifications that are found in the pulp chamber or pulp canals of teeth

appear as round, ovoid, or cylindrical radiopacities, may conform the the shape of the pulp chamber or canal

pulp stones may vary in (3)

do not cause symptoms and do not require treatment

lesion located around the apex of a tooth

on radiographs, periapical lesions may appear

Periapical radiolucencies (3)

localized mass of chronically inflamed granulation tissue at the apex of a nonvital tooth

may give rise to a periapical cyst or abcess

sequela of pulpitis

most common sequela of pulpitis

has a prolonged history of sensativity to hot and cold

treatment of periapical granuloma

another name for periapical cyst

lesion that develops over a prolonged period; cystic degeneration takes place within a periapical granuloma and results in?

the periapical cyst results from?

Most common of ALL tooth related cysts?

what percentage of cysts in the oral region are periapical?

treatment of periapical cyst?

localized collection of pus in the periapical region of a tooth that results from pulpal death

has features of an acute pus-producing process and inflammation
may result from an acute inflammation of teh pulp or an area of chronic infection

features of a long-standing, low-grade puss-producing process

acute periapical abcess is painful; pain may be (3)

the tooth with an acute periapical abcess is sensative to (3)

may be seen at the apical region of a tooth at the sight of drainage

treatment of the periapical abcess incluedes

Is radiographic change always evident with acute periapical abcess?

results from a bacterial infection within the walls of the periodontal tissues that typically results from a preexisting periodontal condition

the most common symptom of periodontal abcess is?

Therapy for a periodontal abcess includes

prognosis for the tooths periodontal health depends on (2)

tooth with an infection in the pulp

tooth with purulent inflammation within the periodontal tissues

Periapical radiopacities (3)

periapical radiopacities can be diagonosed based on (3)

well-defined radiopacity that is seen below the apex of a nonvital tooth with a history of long-standing pulpitis
