Study Notes
Dental Clinical Practice 2: Non-Dental Biofilm-Induced Gingival Diseases
- This presentation focuses on gingival diseases and conditions resulting from non-dental biofilms, as opposed to plaque-induced gingivitis.
Learning Objectives
- List the local etiological factors of dental biofilm-induced gingival diseases.
- Interpret the classification of non-dental biofilm-induced gingival conditions and diseases.
- List the outcomes for periodontal health for plaque-associated periodontal diseases.
- Describe the types of non-dental biofilm-induced gingival diseases.
- Summarize future research needs for classifying and diagnosing gingival diseases and conditions.
Local Risk Factors/Predisposing Factors
- Local risk factors encourage plaque accumulation at specific sites by inhibiting its removal during oral hygiene or creating a biological niche for increased plaque accumulation.
- Examples include: prominent subgingival restoration margins, which facilitate plaque accumulation and hinder mechanical removal; and oral dryness/hyposalivation, leading to reduced cleansing of tooth surfaces, increased gingival inflammation, and reduced biofilm removal. The causes of dry mouth include certain medications, Sjogren's syndrome, and mouth breathing.
Drug-Influenced Gingival Enlargements
- Certain medications, including antiepileptic drugs, calcium channel blockers, immunoregulating drugs, and high-dose oral contraceptives, can affect gingival tissue size.
- Plaque bacteria and the specific medication are necessary for drug-influenced gingival conditions.
- Gingival enlargements may occur but not in every individual taking the drug, suggesting specific characteristics play a role.
- Clinical manifestations of the gum enlargement may differ at various sites/patients, sometimes with little to no clinically visible gingivitis.
Common Clinical Characteristics of Drug-Influenced Gingival Enlargements
- Enlargement patterns differ between patients likely due to genetic predisposition.
- Anterior gingiva is more frequently affected.
- Enlargement often presents within three months of drug use, potentially with or without bone loss.
- No observed association with attachment loss or tooth mortality.
- Clinical and histological characteristics appear indistinguishable.
Classification of Gingivitis
- Gingivitis in an Intact Periodontium: Probing attachment loss and radiographic bone loss are absent; BOP scores vary between localized (≤10%) and generalized (>30%).
- Gingivitis in a Reduced Periodontium Without a History of Periodontitis: Probing attachment loss and potential radiographic bone loss are present; BOP scores again vary between localized (≤10%) and generalized (>30%); probing depths (all sites) are less than or equal to 3mm.
Outcomes of Periodontal Health for Plaque-Associated Periodontal Disease
- Various periodontal health outcomes exist depending on whether the periodontium is intact or reduced and the presence of gingivitis. Variables considered include bleeding on probing, normal gingival sulcus depth, normal bone heights, modifying factors, and predisposing factors.
Non-Dental Biofilm-Induced Gingival Diseases
- Plaque-induced gingivitis is common; non-dental-induced gingivitis is less common but significantly impacts patients.
- Non-dental biofilm-induced gingival lesions can represent systemic conditions.
Gingival Diseases: Non-Dental Plaque-Induced
- Genetic/developmental disorders
- Specific infections (bacterial, viral, fungal)
- Inflammatory and immune conditions/lesions
- Reactive processes
- Neoplasms
- Endocrine, nutritional, and metabolic diseases
- Traumatic lesions
- Chemical/toxic insults
- Gingival pigmentation/melanoplakia
Future Research Needs
- Developing simple tests (e.g., saliva-based) to detect early gum disease signs.
- Identifying factors contributing to gum disease susceptibility.
- Understanding differences among various types of gum diseases.
- Standardizing periodontal probe use to improve diagnostic accuracy and consistency, using the ISO 21672 probe specifications including tip diameter (0.5 mm), structure (cylindrical tine), constant force limiter (0.25 N), scale (15 mm with markings), and taper (1.75°).
