Term
What is aggressive periodontitis?
Definition
rapid destruction of first molars and incisors
Term
Is the response to therapy good for aggressive perio?
Definition
no
Term
What was aggressive perio previously known as?
Definition
early onset perio because it was throught to just occur in people under 30, while is more common in young people it can happen in anyone
Term
What are the three primary features of aggressive perio?
Definition
1.rapid destruction of attachment
2.no systemic disease
3.genetics
Term
What are the some secondary features of aggressive perio?
Definition
1.low levels of plaque for extent of disease
2.elevated amounts of Aa bacteria
3.elevated prostaglandin E2 and interleukin 1-beta cells
4.lack of clinical signs of disease
5.poor response to therapy
Term
What is important with aggressive perio?
Definition
early detection, thats why we probe 1st molars and incisors in children
Term
Are the treatments the same for chronic and aggressive?
Definition
very similar
Term
Can aggressive always be controlled? What should be done?
Definition
-not always
-try to slow it
-refer to periodontitis
Term
Basic characteristics of chronic perio-
Definition
slow, progressive, periods of episodic destruction, Porphyromonas gingivalis, 35 and older
Term
What are some characteristics of aggressive perio-
Definition
attachment loss is rapid and episodic(acute destruction phases with intermittent inactive phases), Aggregatibacter Actinomycetemcomitans, any age(particularly young)
Term
What are the two types of aggressive periodontitis?
Definition
localized and generalized
Term
When does localized aggressive perio occur? How many teeth are involved?
Definition
-occurs around puberty
-no more than 2 teeth involved other than 1st molars and incisors
Term
Is there a lot of tissue inflammation or plaque present with localized aggressive periodontitis?
Definition
no
Term
What is the classic radiographic sign of localized aggressive perio?
Definition
vertical bone loss around 1st molars and incisors
Term
When does the onset of generalized aggressive perio occur? How many/which teeth?
Definition
-around 30 years old
-interproximal attachment loss effecting 3 other teeth besides classics
-episodic
-minimal plaque
Term
What may the gingiva look like in generalized aggressive periodontitis?
Definition
inflamed, ulcerated, fiery red
Term
What phase of disease does the tissue look like this in?
Definition
the destructive phase
Term
What is the best way to detect aggressive perio? What xrays?
Definition
probing, vertical bitewings(evaluate crestal bone loss)
Term
What disease category do we choose when a systemic condition is the major predisposing factor?
Definition
periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic disease
Term
How long after therapy do we evaluate outcomes?
Definition
4-6 weeks
Term
What are the desired outcomes of periodontal treatment for aggressive?
Definition
-stop further detachment
-decrease inflammation
Term
What are some disorders that are contributing factors for perio disease?
Definition
-genetic disorders
-hematological disorders
Term
What are hematological disorders?
Definition
abnormalities in the structure or function of the blood and blood forming tissues- red cells, white cells, platelets, clotting factors
Term
What is acquired neutropenia?
Definition
abnormally low level of PMN's
Term
What is leukemia?
Definition
abnormal white blood cells that do not function
Term
What is another hematological disorder that can effect the periodontium?
Definition
HIV/AIDs
Term
What are the 2 most common HIV-associated periodontal conditions?
Definition
-linear gingival erythemia(LGE)
-Necrotizing periodontal disease(NUG, NUP)
Term
What is a genetic disorder?
Definition
disease caused by the absence of a gene or by the products of a defective gene
Term
Do genetic disorders appear in each generation?
Definition
no
Term
What is Familial and Cyclic Neutropenia?
Definition
a genetic disorder characterized by abnormally low PMN's
Term
What is Downs syndrome?
Definition
a genetic disorder with periodontal manifestations
Term
What is leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome?
Definition
-defective leukocyte chemotaxis
-peridontitis appears as soon as teeth erupt, early tooth loss
Term
What is papillon-leferve syndrome?
Definition
-hyperkeratonosis of palms of hands and soles of feet and severe periodontal destruction
-by 15 most pts are endentuluous
Term
What is Chediak-Higashi syndrome?
Definition
-impairment of neutrophil chemotaxis
-AGGRESSIVE PERIO, pale skin and eyes (looks like of albino)
Term
What are some tooth anatomic factors for perio?
Definition
-cervical enamel projections
-enamel pearls
-palitolingual grooves
-tooth mal alignment
Term
If these factors are fixed does the disease stop progressing?
Definition
yes it can
Term
What are muccogingival deformity and conditions?
Definition
-a significant alteration of the interrelationships between the gingiva and alveolar mucosa
-caused by bacteria, plaque present
**recession is most common**
Term
What are necrotizing periodontal diseases?
Definition
-inflammatory destructive infection of periodontium
Term
Are NUG and NUP different?
Definition
don't know if they are different stages in same disease or different diseases
Term
What are some alternative terms for NUG/NUP?
Definition
-trench mouth
-Vincent infection
-Acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis

Term
What is NPD related to?
Definition
diminished systemic resistance to bacterial infection
Term
Is the clinical appearance of NPD the same as chronic and aggressive?
Definition
no it is different
Term
What are some signs and symptoms of NPD?
Definition
-painful infection
-ulcerated, necrotic papilla and marginal gingiva
