-
Disease of the oral mucosa and tissues?
abcess
cyst
ulcer
-
abcess
localized collection of pus, commonly caused by bacterial infection.
-
Cyst
enclosed pouch or sac containing fluid or semi-solid material
-
ulcer
disruption of the superficial covering of mucosa or skin
-
Vesicles
small elevation that contains fluid
leaves superficial ulcers upon rupture
-
hematoma
localized collection of blood
well defined and turns a dark color with tie
-
lesions above the surface
vesicles
hematoma
-
non-elevated lesions
petechiae
ecchymoses
-
petechiae
pound, pinpoint non-raised, purplish-red spots caused by mucosa or dermal hemorrhage
-
ecchymoses
large, purplish red areas caused by blood under the skin or mucosa
turns a blue to yellow color
-
diseases of the tooth and gingiva
dental caries
pulpalgia
pulpitis
periapical abcess
necrosis
-
dental caries
caused by streptococci
first appears as chalky whit spots on enamel(incipient)
indicates decalcification
arrested if it dosent continue, will be dark and hollowd out
-
recurrent dental caries
when a dental caries occurs where there is already a restoration.
-
pit and fissure caries
Develops in depressions of tooth surfaces
-
smooth caries
usually on the proximal surface
-
pulpalgia
pain in the dental pulp
short sharp shooting pain that's worse when lying down or climbing stairs
-
pulpitis
inflammation of the dental pulp
results from dental bacterial infection or a fractured tooth
dull ache that can progress to severe, pulsating pain
-
periapical abcess
pulp becomes inflamed
smells pus-like
ulcers form in pulpal canal, can spread to the bone
tooth feels "high" when biting, sensitive to the touch
-
necrosis
death of the tissue
may not be in any pain
smells foul, rotten
-
what is the MOST prevalent disease in mankind?
Periodantal
-
periodontal disease
bleeding with brushing, tender, red swollen gums, tooth shifting, tooth elongation, mobile teeth, purulent exudates in between teeth, halitosis.
-
Gingivitis
inflammation of the gingival tissue
-
Marginal gingivitis
most common gingival disease
starts at the tip of the papillea, results in swelling and loss of texture, easy bleeding.
-
Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis (NUG)
AKA trenchmouth, Vincent's infection
redness, swelling, px, accumulation of calculus, bleeding, film and necrotic (white) tissue that can be wiped off leaving a raw red wound.
ulceration leaves a punched out appearance of gingival crest
unpleasent odor and foul taste
-
Periodontitis
Chronic inlammatory condition involving gingival, periodantal membrane and alveolar bone
results in loss of bone, periodantal pocket formation, increases tooth mobility
gingival becomes bluish red
-
periodontal pocket
inflammation forms at the apex of the tooth
Gingiva bleeds easily, calculus forms shelf-like projection
interdental papillae is destroyed
results in loss of teeth
-
periodontal abcess
results from long, continuous irritation.
surrounding gingival becomes inflamed and swollen
-
pericoronitis
inflammation of gingival around a partially erupted tooth
most common with wisdom teeth
gingival flap may become infected
-
recurrent apathous stomatitis (RAS)
canker sores, painful ulcerations
seven to ten day healing time
-
Herpes Simplex
type 1 is oral
type 2 is genital
-
Oral manifestations of HIV
Candidiasis
Hairy Leukoplakia
Kaposis Sarcoma
-
Candidiasis
fungal, red or white in color
-
Hairy leukoplakia
viral tongue infection
white, slightly raised lesions
-
atrition
loss of substance of a tooth from a wearing away process caused by teeth against teeth
