Foundations of Periodontics for the Dental Hygienist 6TH
edition Jill S. Gehrig TESTBANK full chapter
The periodontium exists in three basic states;
___________, ___________, _____________ - Health, gingivitis, periodontitis
True or False?
"Periodontal disease" is interchangeable with "Periodontitis" - False
Periodontitis is a ____________ infection of all parts of the periodontium including the
____________, ____________, ________, ____________.
Gingivitis is a bacterial infection that is confined to the __________________. -
bacterial, gingiva, PDL, cementum, alveolar bone
gingiva
True or false? Gingivitis and Periodontitis are both considered periodontal diseases. -
True.
● Presents within 4-14 days after no flossing or brushing, depending on host response
● Infection is confined to ___________; no attachment loss, is reversible - Gingivitis,
gingiva
A "______________________" is caused by inflammation resulting in increased
probing depths due to tissue enlargement; also known as a false pocket - Pseudopocket
The most common form of periodontal disease is ______________. Specifically,
____________-induced. - Gingivitis (plaque-induced)
In ________________________, you see;
● Apical migration of JE with little to no pain
● Disease is intermittent, _____________, and episodic - Periodontitis, JE, inactive,
True or false; Gingivitis always leads to Periodontitis. - False. It does not always.
, Bone loss depends on ____________ of inflammation. The two main patterns of bone
loss are ______________________ and _______________. - pathway, horizontal,
vertical
○ Horizontal bone loss is _________ common, _________ to treat
■ Inflammation spreads=
Gingival connective tissue > ____________ > ___________ - more, easier
Gingival connective tissue > alveolar bone > PDL space
○ Vertical bone loss has a _______ progression, is _________ to treat, and leaves
trench-like area of missing bone along the root
■ Inflammation spreads=
Gingival connective tissue > ____________ > _______________ - rapid, harder
Gingival connective tissue > PDL space > alveolar bone
Infrabony pocket:
○ Base of the pocket/JE _______ to the crest of bone.
○ Associated with the _________ bone loss pattern
○ Classified on the basis of the # of osseous (bony) walls. - apical, Vertical,
Suprabony pocket:
○ Base of the pocket/JE is _____________ to the crest of alveolar bone
○ Associated with the ___________ bone loss pattern
● Interproximal = most common place for bone loss and periodontitis - coronal,
Horizontal
Active Disease vs. Inactive Disease Sites;
The majority of pockets in most adults are ______________
●______________ - continued apical migration of JE
● _____________ - stable; JE no longer migrating - Inactive, Active, Inactive
Characteristics of a _________________ Periodontium;
JE is coronal to the CEJ, Supragingival fibers intact, Alveolar bone is intact, PDL is
intact - Healthy
Characteristics of Gingivitis;
JE is ____ the CEJ, Supragingival fibers _______, Alveolar bone is ________, PDL is
________ - at or coronal to, intact, intact, intact
Characteristics of Periodontitis;
JE is ___________ to the CEJ, Supragingival fibers ______________, Alveolar bone
____________, PDL ____________ - apical, destruction, destruction, destruction
Clinical picture of periodontium;
Red gingiva, swollen, possibly BOP - Gingivitis
