Study Notes
Classification of Periodontal Disease
- Gingival Diseases: Classified under category I, involves inflammation of the gums without loss of attachment.
- Chronic Periodontitis: Category II; most common form, characterized by slow progression and episodic nature. It can be influenced by systemic diseases.
- Aggressive Periodontitis: Category III; rapid attachment and bone loss with unpredictable progression and high levels of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A.a).
- Periodontitis as a Manifestation of Systemic Disease: Category IV; associated with systemic health conditions affecting periodontal status.
- Necrotizing Periodontal Disease: Category V; involves necrosis of the periodontal tissues, often linked to systemic factors or immunocompromised states.
- Abscesses of the Periodontium: Category VI; localized collections of pus within periodontal tissues.
- Endo-Perio Lesions: Category VII; simultaneous occurrence of endodontic (root) and periodontal issues.
- Developmental or Acquired Deformities and Conditions: Category VIII; includes anatomical abnormalities affecting periodontal health.
Gingival Diseases Overview
- Plaque-Induced Gingival Diseases: Caused primarily by plaque biofilm and can be affected by systemic conditions, medications, and malnutrition.
- Non-Plaque Induced Gingival Diseases: Result from factors like infections (bacterial, viral, fungal), genetic predisposition, systemic diseases, or trauma.
Aggressive Periodontitis Details
- Characterized by rapid attachment loss and bone destruction; severity not consistent with the bacterial load.
- Localized type primarily affects incisors and first molars.
- Generalized type includes additional teeth along with incisors and first molars.
Chronic Periodontitis Specifics
- Manifests as slow, site-specific progression, possibly related to systemic disease.
- Subclassified based on extent/distribution and severity of clinical attachment loss.
Extent/Distribution of Chronic Periodontitis
- Generalized: 30% or more sites with clinical attachment loss.
- Localized: Less than 30% of sites affected.
Severity Classification
- Slight: 1-2mm of clinical attachment loss (CAL).
- Moderate: 3-4mm of CAL.
- Severe: 5mm or more of CAL.
Graft Types in Periodontal Procedures
- Autograft: Tissue harvested from the patient.
- Allograft: Tissue from a donor of the same species but a different genotype.
- Xenograft: Tissue sourced from a different species.
- Alloplast: Synthetic materials designed for grafting.
