Study Notes
AAP Classification of Periodontal Diseases and Conditions
- Type I: Plaque-induced gingival diseases, primarily related to the buildup of dental plaque.
- Type II: Chronic periodontitis, characterized by inflammation and progressive attachment loss.
- Type III: Aggressive periodontitis, a severe form often seen in younger individuals with rapid attachment loss.
- Type IV: Periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic disease, indicating that systemic health issues impact periodontal health.
- Type V: Necrotizing periodontal disease, featuring ulceration and necrosis of the periodontal tissues.
- Type VI: Abscesses of the periodontium, involving localized infections within periodontal tissues.
- Type VII: Periodontitis associated with endodontic lesions, where periodontal health is affected by dental pulp inflammation.
- Type VIII: Developmental or acquired deformities and conditions impacting periodontal structures.
Plaque Induced Gingival Diseases
- Plaque-induced gingivitis can be influenced by systemic factors, medications, and malnutrition.
- Systemic factors include hormonal changes linked to puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, and conditions like diabetes.
- Medications can lead to drug-induced gingival enlargements or influence gingivitis, such as those associated with oral contraceptives.
- Malnutrition-related gingival diseases include scurvy, stemming from vitamin C deficiency.
Non-Plaque Induced Gingival Lesions
- These lesions arise from specific bacterial, viral, or fungal origins, as well as genetic factors or systemic conditions.
- Bacterial-origin diseases include lesions associated with Neisseria gonorrhea, Treponema pallidum, and Streptococcal species.
- Viral-origin lesions primarily result from herpes infections.
- Fungal-origin diseases involve Candida species and conditions like histoplasmosis.
Gingival Manifestations of Systemic Conditions
- Mucocutaneous disorders linked to systemic conditions include lichen planus, pemphigoids, erythema multiforme, and lupus erythematosus.
- Allergic reactions from dental materials (e.g., mercury, nickel) or products (toothpaste, mouthwash) can also cause gingival issues.
Trauma and Foreign Body Reactions
- Traumatic lesions may arise from chemical, physical, or thermal injuries.
- Foreign body reactions occur when the body responds to foreign materials located within the gums.
Chronic Periodontitis Classification
- Type II localized chronic periodontitis occurs when 30% or fewer sites exhibit attachment and bone loss.
- Type II generalized chronic periodontitis is indicated by attachment and bone loss at more than 30% of sites.
- Type II mild chronic periodontitis is characterized by a clinical attachment loss of 1 to 2 mm.
