Diagnosis
SPECIAL TEST
-
Study Models - Occlusal anaylsis (facebow and occlusal records), wear analysis
-
-
Hematological Tests - FBC, Vitamins/Minerals adds to data about condition of pt and development of disease
Risk Assessments - Caries Risk assessment, Perio Risk asessment, Pros/Endo risk assessment
Caries
-
-
Caries Risk Assessment
- Caries Hx
- Current Caries Status
- Fluoride Exposure
- Caries activity
- Dietary Habits
- Family caries hx
- Saliva flow
- medical hx
- oral cleanliness
- social behaviour
Low Risk
- No new lesions
- good OHCP
- no poor diet habits
- optimal F- exposure
- no family hx of caries
Moderate Risk
- 1 new carious lesion per year
- irregular OHCP
- occasional snacking
- sealants done
- moderate F- exposure
High Risk
- 2+ new lesions per year
- poor OHCP
- no sealants
- no F- exposure/use
- family hx caries
- dry mouth
-
-
Pathology
-
-
Biopsy
Incisional
- (if LARGE) need a sample from multiple sites and of different tissue types
Excision
- (often definitive tx) suitable for lesions <1cm
Hematological Sample
FBC/CBC
Iron Studies
Folate/Vit B12
CRP
Clotting profile (INR, platelet, APTT, fibrinogen)
Immunoglobiln
ANA
Zn and Cu
Odontogenic Infections
-
Oroantral-Fistula
Epithelilisation of an OAC that has been present for 48/72hrs that has reorganised the communication and caused osteitis to surround bone margins
Tx: Refer for Flap Advancement/Closure
Cellulitis
Diffuse inflammation of soft tissue spaces
• Extensive, firm swelling (diffuse oedema)
• Pain, Tenderness, Erythema (redness)
• Dysphagia & ptosis may occur (depends on site)
-
Spread of Infections
Spread through the facial planes. Common signs and symptoms include dysphagia, swelling, trismus, pain, fever
Non-bacterial infections
-
Fungal
• Candidiasis:
Erythematous/
pseudomembranous/
chronic hyperplastic
• Angular Cheilitis (fungal/staf)
Perio
Advanced Charting
- recession
- bleeding
- suppuration
- probing depth
- furcation
-
-
-
Classification of PD
Extent
Localized <30% of teeth; Generalized >30% of teethSeverity by staging:
- stage I = 1-2 mm
Bone loss to coronal 1/3
- stage II = 2-4 mm
Bone loss to coronal-middle
- stage III - >5mm
w/ tooth loss of <4 teeth, bone loss middle-apical
- stage IV = >5mm
w/ tooth loss of >5 teeth, bone loss to middle-apical
Grades:
Slow/Moderate/Rapid rate of progression
Endo
Trauma
-
-
-
Dental Injuries
-
Symptoms
Subluxation = Mobile, TTP, Bleeding?
Extrusion = Negative to tests, appears longer
-
Intrusion = appears shorter, high metallic sound
-

Special Cases
Medical Complications
Medications
Bisphosphonates – don’t want to do an extraction if it can be avoided because of BRONJ (bisphosphonate related osteonecrosis of the jaw)
Steroids – they need steroid cover (double their normal dose) before their extraction to avoid HPA crisis
Warfarin/NOAC – Reduce healing capabilities in pts with high INR ie bleeding risk. Manage bleeds not IHD!
-
Conditions
Surgical considerations
Diabetes
Impaired healing and more bleeding and also may go into shock. Make sure you have sugar around you in case. Use haemostatic measures to stop bleeding like putting surgical, spongistan or gelfoam into the socket
Cardiac Issues:
Prosthetic heart valves, rheumatic heart diesease, repair or placement of ex. pacemakers w/n 6mnths, hx infective endocarditis, congenital issues (ie palliative shunts)
– need antibiotic cover before the extraction (AB cover doses
– Amoxicillin 2g 1 hour before or Clarithromycin 500mg PO 1hr, Clindamycin 600mg 1 hour before)
Pregnancy – don’t want to give most drugs (paracetamol is ok), try to avoid extractions until after birth if possible
Hypertension/ arrhythmias/angina/ other heart conditions
– don’t want to give too much adrenaline, try to give adrenaline free local or if not don’t go more than 2 cartridges.
Smoking – Nicotine impairs the reparative phase of periodontal disease and promotes futher destruction causing incraesed damage,
– Huge risk of dry socket after extraction
