Term
| Part of the tooth that is covered by enamel |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The fibrous connective tissue that surrounds and attaches the roots of the teeth to alveolar bone is: |
|
Definition
| the periodontal ligament (PDL) |
|
|
Term

|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Which type of stroke is used with the perio probe? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The line that is sometimes visable and is located between the free and attached gingiva is called the: |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The line separating the attached gingiva and the alveolar mucosa is: |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| what are the 4 components of the periodontium? |
|
Definition
- gingiva - alveolar bone - perio ligament - cementum |
|
|
Term
-Oral mucosa that surrounds the teeth - protects underlying tissues of the teeth |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- Bone of the mandible and maxilla - Surrounds root of teeth (protection) |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- Fibrous commective tissue - attaches roots of teeth to underlying alveolar bone by sharpy's fibers - bundles of collagen fibers |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- Mineralized connective tissue - Covers external roots of teeth - attachment for periodontal fibers - seals dentinal tubules |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- Gingiva that surrounds/encircles the tooth - most coronally positioned - external wall of the gingival sulcus - keratinized - NOT attached to the tooth - extends apically to the free gingival groove |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- Demarcates marginal and attached gingiva - a shallow "V" shaped linear indentation - seldom present - often corresponds to the bottom of the gingival sulcus |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- cevice (space) between the free gingiva and tooth - in health its shallow, the average depth is about 1.8mm |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- continuous with marginal gingiva - tightly bound to underlying bone - various surface textures, colors, and consistancies - keratinized - has dense collaged fibers ( cause it to resist breaking down) |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Demarcates attached gingiva from alveolar mucosa (visable in mouth, area where gingiva turn from a pink to a reddish color) |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| - movable, loosely attached, smooth, shiny, deep pink or dark red (depending on health) non keratinized, vessels in it may be seen, may contain melanin pigment |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- Gingiva between teeth - occupies embrasure space (area apical to contact) |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- depression between F & L interdental gingiva - connects facial and lingual papillae - the center is NOT keratinized, so it is susceptable to disease |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium - covers outer surface of marginal and attached gingiva - (covers everything you see in the mouth) |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- thin, non-keratinized - it lines the gingival sulcus - inside of free gingiva |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- continuous with sucular epithelium - completely encircles the tooth (cuff like band) - Near the CEJ in health - Triangular in cross section |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| - attachment point of this is on the enamel |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Activation of an instrument is caused by movement of the ______ |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- light, secure pressure - used to locate calculus - relaxed grip - many, long overlapping strokes |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- moderate to heavy pressure - used to remove deposits - firm grasp - few, short, controlled overlapping strokes |
|
Definition
| - scaling or working stroke |
|
|
Term
- instrument that is curved to examine furcations on teeth - does not measure the sulcus/pocket |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- instrument with alternating color bands - thin - 3, 6, 9 and 12 mm markings |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- instrument with a thick end - has markings at 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10mm (no 4 or 6 markings) |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- instrument with a thin end - has markings at 3, 6, and 8mm |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
- instrument with the thinness of the Michigan O - Has the ease of reading with Williams Markings - Used at UDM and for NERB |
|
Definition
| Michigan-O with Williams markings |
|
|
Term
| The periodontal probe should only be reinserted when probing around________ |
|
Definition
