ANSWERS 100% SOLVED AND GUARANTEED SUCCESS!!
An exaggerated inflammatory response to plaque resulting in
Leukemia-Associated Gingivitis
increased bleeding and tissue enlargement
pregnancy related mushroom-like growth, not cancerous or
Pyogenic Granuloma
painful. usually regresses after giving birth
inflammatory response of the gingiva to plaque aggravated by
Diabetes-Associated Gingivitis
poorly controlled blood glucose levels
Medications Most Commonly Anticonvulsants, Calcium channel blockers, Immunosuppressants
Associated With Gingival
Enlargement?
Meticulous plaque control can reduce but will not eliminate gingival overgrowth.
An inflammatory response to dental plaque aggravated by
Ascorbic Acid-Deficiency Gingivitis
chronically low ascorbic acid (vitamin C) levels
Primary Herpetic Gingivostomatitis? initial oral infection with the herpes simplex type-1 virus (HSV-1). form PAINFUL
ulcers
Erythema Multiforme May be due to allergic reaction or infection.
Disease of the skin and mucous membranes. Characterized by an
Lichen Planus
itchy, swollen rash on the skin or in the mouth
manifestation of immunosuppression. Does not respond well to
Linear Gingival Erythema
improved oral self- care or professional therapy.
two flavor additives known to Cinnamon and carvone
cause allergic reactions of the
gingiva?
Acute gingivitis short duration; resolves upon professional and good self-care.
may exist for years without ever progressing to periodontitis;
Chronic gingivitis
resolves upon professional and good self-care
inflammatory conditions affecting the soft and hard gum tissues
peri-implant gingivitis
around dental implants
periodontal diseases involving inflammation of the gingiva in
Plaque-Induced Gingival diseases
response to dental plaque
is plaque induced gingival disease yes, with good patient self-care
reversible?
plaque-induced gingival disease Reveal no changes in height or character of the bone
, radiographs?
Gingival diseases modified by plaque initiates the disease and then specific systemic factors
systemic factors? found in the host modify the disease process. Example: puberty,
pregnancy, diabetes, leukemia
Gingival diseases modified by Onset within 3 months, higher prevalence in children, gingiva on
medications- Gingival anterior sextants most commonly affected. first observed at the
Enlargement interdental papilla.
manifestation of immunosuppression. Does not respond well to
Non-Plaque-Induced Gingival lesions
improved oral self- care or professional therapy
Pain usually is NOT a symptom. Clinical appearance is NOT a reliable
Chronic periodontitis Signs and
symptoms indicator of the presence or severity of chronic periodontitis
Chronic periodontitis most common form, Irreversible loss of attachment bone.
slight chronic periodontitis no more than 1 to 2mm of clinical attachment loss
moderate chronic periodontitis 3-4 mm of clinical attachment loss
Severe chronic periodontitis 5 mm or more of clinical attachment loss
Recurrent Chronic Periodontitis new signs of destructive periodontitis that reappear after therapy
