1
New cards

What are some soft deposit types

Acquired Pellicle, Bacterial Biofilm (plaque),Materia Alba,Food Debris

2
New cards

Acquired Pellicle

3
New cards

ha tis aquire pellice function?

Keeps teeth moist

4
New cards

Aquire pellie is what

Protien layer , base layer

5
New cards

How fast does ap reform

at least 30 mintues sometimes faster

6
New cards

Bacterial Biofilm def

A dense, nonmineralized, complex mass of bacterial colonies and other oral

microorganisms in a gel-like intermicrobial matrix

7
New cards

yeast, viruses, protoza, and others

8
New cards

What does biolfilm form to

Adheres firmly to the acquired pellicle, teeth, calculus and restorations

9
New cards

Distribution of biolfilm is found wherw

A stagnation sites anywhere were its hard to distrupt

10
New cards

Machenical distruvtion Mechanical destruction

brushing, chewing, eating, moving the mouth

11
New cards

What are some stagnation sites

Proximal surfaces

ļ‚“ Gingival margin

ļ‚“ Mispositioned teeth

12
New cards

Where do we see biofilm the heaviest

Mandibular arch

13
New cards

Wher edo we see biofil the least

maxillary lingual

14
New cards

What are some factors that increase biofilm formation

Rough surfaces

ļ‚“ Restorations

ļ‚“ Calculus

15
New cards

What is the only way to remove biofilm

mechanical actions such as toothbrushing, flossing, and polishing

16
New cards

Materia Alba

looks like cotage cheese

17
New cards

Materia alba lyes ontop of biofilm

18
New cards

Materia alba def

Loosely adherent,

unstructured white or

grayish white mass of

oral debris and

bacteria which lies over

dental biofilm.

19
New cards

How to remove materia alba

does need mechanical distrubtion it can be removed with vigorous rinsing and water irrigation

20
New cards

What water irragartion can get rid of

21
New cards

What is the Significance of ← listen to audio

22
New cards

Both despoist biofilm and material alba contibe to what

gingival inflammation, continuation and formation of each other

23
New cards

How can the tissue be

returned to health?

remove the deposit and encourage good oral health brishing and cleaning for at least 2 weeks consitant

24
New cards

Food Debris

25
New cards

What is biorfilm formation

begins with pellice forms on the tooth surface begins withinh 30 mins → bacterial attach to pellicle→ bacteria mutiply in colonies→ colonies increase in # and sizes→ collonies join together→ bateria grow and for a new layer of bacteria→ mactrix form

26
New cards

Biofilm components

80% of bioflim is water

27
New cards

Maxtrix formation

28
New cards

What does the salSalivary constituents form

Proteins, Carbohydrates, Lipids that

form a polysaccharide-protein complex

29
New cards

submarginal biofilm will not have ← listen to audio entire slide 14 no question

wont have to salivary components

30
New cards

What are inorganic compenets

Calcium

ļ‚“ Phosphorus

Magnesium

ļ‚“ Potassium

ļ‚“ Sodium

fluroide

31
New cards

The highest level of inorginac compounds are

calcium and phosphorus

32
New cards

What increase the presents of fluriode in the body

Amount present increases with

use of fluoridated water and

topical application

33
New cards

How does dental biofilm form

first gave epithesEpithelial cells and a few cocci

34
New cards

How does dental biofilm form day 1-2 days with no distrubtion

Masses of cocci and short rods form

35
New cards

It takes how long to see gingival change

1-2 weeks

36
New cards

How does dental biofilm form day 4-7 days with no distrubtion

Filamentous bacteria and

leucocytes/fusobacteria appear

37
New cards

What happens ro the dental biofilm form day 2-3 weeks with no distrubtion

ibros and spirochetes are prevalent along

with cocci and filamentous

ļ‚“ Filamentous densely packed tuft like groups

ļ‚“ Gingivitis clinically evident

38
New cards

When does acute gingivis appear

about 2-3 weeks

39
New cards

How can you get rid of actue givitivis

Effective brushing for 3-5 days

40
New cards

Healthy mouth bacteria

cocci and rods

41
New cards

Inflammed bacteria in the mouth

lus filamentous, vibrios, spirochetes

42
New cards

Molbiel bacteria is most causing what? ← listen to the audio for slide 18

43
New cards

Pattern of ogranixation goes from ← listen to audio and make sure to write down

44
New cards

Highly active (motile) bacteria

is a concern

45
New cards

What does the present of white blood cells being present means ← listen to audio

it knows that there is bacteria inn the mouth,

46
New cards

subginigival biofilm

47
New cards

Complex anaerobic microorganism can not sueveive with

being exposes to oxygen use a water flosser, hydrtp prroxide

48
New cards

What weakens to immune ystem and can cause bone distrubtion as well

49
New cards

Nutrients are obtained from gingival sulcular fluid ← audio

50
New cards

Biofilm is a product of what

bacterial growth

51
New cards

Where do hard and crunchy food affect the most on the teeth

the occlusal and incisal third of the crown

52
New cards

What increase biofilm formations

surcose, table sugar

53
New cards

soft diets tend to adhence what

biofilm accumlation

54
New cards

Dental caries defintion

Decalcification of the

mineral components and

dissolution of the organic

matrix of the enamel,

dentin, and cementum

55
New cards

When dematerialization out way reminielartion that makes of reminiscence

dental caries

56
New cards

What is requires to have a dental carie

Susceptible tooth surface, Specific microorganisms, Cariogenic food stuff source, actual sugar, lactovisile, and

57
New cards

For decay its nsugar;ot the amount of sugar, it's eaten at ones but its actual how often you are eating these sugars

58
New cards

reminizaltion takes

3 hours at a neutral pH

59
New cards

You need long stretches of not eating food, which will delay caries

60
New cards

nocariogentic food sourecs are what ex gove ex:

61
New cards

What are the effects of sucrose

get unto plaque

62
New cards

what is biofilm broken doen by

acid-producing bacteria

63
New cards

What causes tooth demineralization

Acid is released into biofilm

64
New cards

The frequents occurance of biofilm and acid makes caries

Repeated/frequent exposure to biofilm acids

cause caries

65
New cards

What sis the critical ph of eneamel

5.5

66
New cards

When ph gets to 5.5 of the enamel the enamel is breaking down

it takes 1-2 hours to return to neutral/normal pH

67
New cards

Frequency of carbohydrate intake effects

A little frequently is more detrimental

68
New cards

What is the singke most important etoligical (cause) factor in most periodontal disease

dental biofilm

69
New cards

What has a direct impact in periodontal diesease

enzymes and other toxic products manufactured or relesased by bacteria and have direct influence on periodontal disease

70
New cards

products of bacterial metabolism can be

toxins, acids

71
New cards

What does high ph of bioflim cause?

72
New cards

What is the role of fluoride in biofilm

High concentrations of fluoride in biofilm can kill bacteria and counteract the effects of biofilm. Having fluoride also helps with remineralization to occur
