§ Expulsion may occur

Assessment of Oral Pathological Lesions || || || ||
• Recognition of a pathological change
|| || || || ||
- The first step in the assessment of oral pathological conditions is recognition of a lesion
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
• Methodological approach
|| ||
- Complete patient history
|| || ||

- Assessment of signs and symptoms
|| || || || ||
- Complete head, neck, & IOE
|| || || || ||
- Use of clinical & lab diagnostic procedures
|| || || || || || ||
• Lesion, is a general term defined as "a pathological change in an organ or tissue that
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
__alters_____ normal form or function." || || || ||
Patient Assessment and History part 1
|| || || || ||
• Patient assessment is the cornerstone of dental hygiene practice.
|| || || || || || || || ||
• Fundamental in the early detection of pathological conditions and systemic problems that may
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
pose a serious threat to the patient and or dental team. Patient assessment begins the first moment
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
a patient is observed in the waiting room or dental operatory
|| || || || || || || || || ||
• Determining patient's health status
|| || || ||
- Identification of undiagnosed medical conditions
|| || || || ||
- Evaluation of known conditions progression and/or changes
|| || || || || || ||
• Includes
||
- Medical, dental, and social histories
|| || || || ||
- Head and neck examination
|| || || ||
- Intraoral examination

Diagnosis is the identification of a disease from its signs and symptoms.
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
Diagnosis is not within the scope of dental hygiene practice, recognition of abnormalities and
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
their proper documentation, as well as patient education, are.
|| || || || || || || ||
Signs and Symptoms || ||
• Signs
||
– Objective findings observed by the clinician
|| || || || || ||
– Patient may not be aware of
|| || || || || ||
• Asymptomatic
||
• Example: white patches on lateral border of tongue
|| || || || || || || ||
• Symptoms
||
– Subjective findings perceived by patient
|| || || || ||
• Symptomatic
||
• Not observable by the clinician

Introduction to disease || ||
- A departure from the norm
|| || || || ||
Disease can be defined as a malady, disorder, or deviation from normal health. Disease indicates a
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||

Pathology
(GK. pathos = suffering + ology- study of) - is the study of the essential nature of diseases and
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
especially of the structural and functional changes produced by them. (Must consider, a lesion

caused by a disease is biochemical and functional as well as morphological)
