Diagnosis Prognosis And Treatment Plan OF Periodontal Diseases

The signs and symptoms of periodontal disease :
1-Gingival color: Any deviation from the normal color of the gingival may be an indication of a pathological condition.Dark red discoloration of the gingival margin and the interdental papillae is an early sign of a gingival lesion.
2-Texture: If the gingiva becomes inflamed,there will be edema,cellular infiltration,with subsequent swelling.
3-Contour and position: In early gingival involvement,margin of gingiva becomes rounded and bulbous.
4-Bleeding and exudation: Bleeding and exudation are signs of periodontal disease.Both are possible when ulcerations of sulcular epithelium occur, exposing underlying connective tissue.
5-Pockets: A pocket is defined as a deepened pathological gingival sulcus. Measuring the depth of the gingival sulcus alone must not make the diagnosis of pocket,but the condition of the gingival tissue must be taken into consideration.The signs and symptoms of pocket formation are those of gingival inflammation: discoloration,loss of contour,loss of stippling,bleeding, presence of exudates and increased depth of the gingival sulcus.
6-Mobility: Mobility of teeth may be correlated with the degree of the attachment by marginal resorption of bone and to the changes in the attachment apparatus.Inrare cases,mobility may be associated with periodontosis,which is a degenerative disease of the periodontium.
7-Migration: Migration is a pathological movement of the teeth in a labial, distal or mesial direction or in supraocclusion position. Migration is a characteristic sign of periodontal disease.aminaa
8-Bone involvement: This is studied by radiographic examination cup shape resorption of the alveolar crest in the molar region,and cup shape resorption or flat resorption in the anterior region is an indication of an inflammatory penitential involvement which has reached the underlying bone.
9-Periodontal abscess: Periodont abcess is an acute exacerbation of a periodontal pocket.It occurs in pockets with narrow orifices where pus is collected.If the patient suffers from multiple acute periodontal abscess formation,diabetes must be suspected.
10-Gingival abscess: Gingival abscess is a localized collection of pus in the marginal gingiva.It is due to injury by a foreign body as apple core,lobster shell,fish bone,or a bristle of a toothbrush. In contrast to periodontal abscess,it involves the superficial tissues of the periodontium and not the deeper structures.

How can we prevent malocclusion of teeth

Hello,

Like a rat, or rabbit, guinea pigs teeth never stop growing. Read this article to know how to prevent Malocclusion so your guinea pig won't suffer from this painful.

1-Motivation of good oral hygiene through:
-Brushing of teeth after each meal using fluoridated toothpaste.
-Control eating sweets between meals.
-Control eating soft diet in general.
2-Regular visits to the dentist to restore carious teeth and pulp treatment of the deciduous teeth if caries involved the pulp chamber.
3-Fabricating snake maintainers if pulp therapy fails.

Causes of early loss of deciduous teeth

Hello,

There are many causes of early loss of deciduous teeth:
1-destructive caries with its sequela of periapical infection.
2-Ectopic or abnormal eruptive position of the first permanent molar.The latter tooth erupts under-neath the exaggerated distal bulge of the crown of the second deciduous molar with subsequent destruction of the distal part of the crown.
3-Ueven resorption of the roots of the deciduous second molar due to abnormal position of the unerupted second bicuspid.
4-Congenital absence of permanent second bicuspid does prevent the resorption of the roots of the second deciduous molar.In this case the second deciduous molar is extracted and a space maintainer is fabricated.
5-Ankylosed second deciduous molar with or without the congenital absence of the bicuspid

Prevention Of Malocclusion Of Teeth

Hello,

It is very important to protect deciduous teeth because deciduous teeth are the best space maintainers for the permanent teeth.

Early loss of deciduous teeth results in:
1-Lack of forward growth of the alveolar processes
2-Partial or complete loss of the space heeded for the eruption
of permanent teeth.
3-over eruption of the teeth opposite to the early lost deciduous
teeth.
4-Forward or lateral shift of the mandible resulting in anterior
or posterior crossbite
