Term
what is a periodontal pocket?
Definition
bacterial invasion into CT
collagen is destroyed
apical migration
Term
are there different types of periodontal pockets?
Definition
2 types, infrabony and suprabony
Term
interdental bone is resorbed more rapidly because

it is more vascular and less resistant to resorption
Term
PMN dominated
Definition
Initial lesion
Term
60 -70% loss of collagen in CT
Definition
Early lesion
Term
chronic gingival inflammation
Definition
Established
Term
attachment loss and bone resorption
Definition
advanced
Term
prostagladins
endooxins
cytokines and PGE2
B-cells
Definition
substances involved in bone resorption
Term
enlargement and coronal migration
reversible
no attachment loss or bone loss
creates pseudopocket
Definition
gingival pocket
Term
JE is coronal to alveolar crest
horizontal bone loss
MOST common
Definition
Suprabony pocket
Term
JE is apical to alveolar crest
Vertical bone loss occurs
Definition
Infrabony pocket
Term
Vertical bone loss can also be described as
Definition
uneven
Term
inflammation spreads from CT sheaths into alveolar bone and PL
Definition
spread of infection in Suprabony pocket
Term
Inflammation spreads directly from gingiva into PLS and then alveolar bone
Definition
spread of infection in Infrabony pocket
Term
Supporting cancellous bone
alveolar bone proper
PL fiber bundles
Definition
order of tissues destroyed in Suprabony pocket
Term
PL fiber bundles
Alveolar bone proper
supporting cancellous bone
Definition
order of tissues destroyed in Infrabony pocket
Term
Infrabony defects are classified by
Definition
how many walls are REMAINING in the surrounding pocket
Term
3 wall defect that wraps around tooth and involves 2 or more adjacent tooth surfaces
Definition
circumferential defect
Term
2 wall defect where buccal and lingual walls remain while mesial and distal walls are destroyed
Definition
Interdental crater
Term
one wall defect where remaining wall is a proximal wall
Definition
Hemiseptum defect
Term
stimulate resting osteoclasts
increase number of osteoclasts and macrophages
inhibit bone collagen information
Definition
Prostagladins (PGE2)
Term
activate inflammatory cells (macrophages)
Macrophages produce and release of cytokines (IL-1)
stimulate PGE2 production
Definition
Endotoxins
Term
Stimulate collagenase production by PMNs
Definition
Cytokines and PGE2
Term
calculus is an important local risk factor for periodontal disease because
Definition
it is porous and can provide a reservoir for bacteria
Term
root morphology
position of teeth in arch
untreated caries
Definition
anatomic factors that predispose the oral cavity to periodontal disease
Term
overhanging restorations
bulky crowns
orthodontics
poor fitting partial denture
Definition
Iatrogenic factors that predispose the oral cavity to periodontal disease
Term
toothbrush trauma
occlusion
chemical injury
habits
food impaction
oral piercings
Definition
Traumatic factors that predispose the oral cavity to periodontal disease
Term
Phenytoin
Cyclosporine
Nifedipine
Definition
Medications associated with gingival hyperplasia
Term
periodontal disease is a risk factor for
Definition
diabetes, cardiovascular disease, low birth weight babies, respiratory disease
Term
which source accounts for the mineralization of subgingival calculus
Definition
crevicular fluid
Term
what reason explains the finding of supragingival calculus on the lingual surfaces of the mandibular incisors?
Definition
presence of whartons duct
Term
which reason makes calculus an important local etiologic factor for periodontal diseases?
Definition
it is porous and can provide a reservoir for bacteria
Term
all of the following anatomic factors may predispose a site to peri0odontal disease except one. what is the exception?
Tooth position
Furcation area
Crown surface
Root surface
Definition
Crown surface
Term
on what surface do palatogingival grooves usually appear?
Definition
Palatal surface of maxillary lateral incisor
Term
what concern should the hygienist be aware of in patients taking bisphosphonates?
Definition
osteonecrosis of the jaw
Term
what evidence exists to support the concept of a genetic predisposition to periodontal disease?
Definition
association of periodontitis with certain transmitted traits
Term
what mechanism explains how increased stress adversely affects the periodontium?
Definition
less compliance with home care of teeth and gums
Term
the hormonal changes associated with pregnancy cause an increased incidence of gingival disease because these changes are associated with an increase in sex hormone levels
Definition
both the statement and the reason are correct and related
Term
smoking affects the peiodontium by which mechanism?
Definition
suppressing of the immune system
Term
periodontal disease may be an important risk factor for all of the following medical conditions except one. what is the exception?
Stroke
Hypertension
Diabetes mellitus
Low birth weight babies
Kidney failure
Definition
Kidney failure
Term
what is true about smoking and periodontal disease?
Definition
smoking cessation is beneficial to periodontal health
Term
what substance may be related to periodontal disease activity and low birth weight babies?
Definition
Prostagladin E2
Term
What bacterium in the mouth has been found to possibly infect and obstruct blood vessels in the heart and brain?
Definition
Porphyromonas gingivalis
Term
what explains why patients with periodontal disease may be at risk for respiratory diseases, especially in hospitals and nursing homes?
Definition
Neglected oral hygiene
Term
what feature describes gingivitis?
Definition
bone loss does not occur
Term
what medication is not involved in causing gingival enlargement?
Definition
Ibuprofen
Term
what periodontal disease is described as having inflammation of the gingiva without loss of clinical connective tissue detachment?
Definition
Dental plaque induced gingivitis
Term
what bacteria is found in high numbers in pregnancy gingivitis?
Definition
Prevotella intermedia
Term
Which periodontal lesion is characterized by chronic gingival inflammation and the presence of plasma cells?
Definition
Established
Term
Today most oral contraceptives do not cause gingival inflammation because of the lower levels of hormones used
Definition
the statement and reason are correct
Term
which periodontal lesion is characterized by chronic ginvigal inflammation and the initial presence of PMNs?
Definition
Initial
Term
During the disease process, the junctional epithelium transforms into
