    Study Notes

    Gingivitis

    • Gingivitis is a chronic inflammatory condition that is most prevalent in the elderly.
    • The main cause of plaque-induced gingivitis is bacteria.
    • Gingivitis is slightly more prevalent in males than females.
    • The prevalence of gingivitis in children aged 3-11 years is 30-50%.
    • At age 12-14, the prevalence of gingivitis rises to 70-90%.
    • The main presentation of gingivitis is bleeding, inflammation, and redness of the gums.
    • The recommended treatment for gingivitis is regular teeth cleaning, good oral hygiene, and antibiotics if necessary.
    • The best prevention for gingivitis is regular teeth cleaning, good oral hygiene, and regular dental check-ups.

    Tooth Anatomy

    • The term for the part of the tooth that faces the opening of the mouth and is visible when someone smiles is the facial surface.
    • The term for the surface of the tooth that faces the tongue or palate is the lingual surface.
    • The term for the contacting surfaces between two adjacent teeth is the proximal surface.
    • The term for the interproximal surface facing anteriorly or closest to the midline is the mesial surface.
    • The term for the interproximal surface facing posteriorly or away from the midline is the distal surface.
    • The term for the biting or chewing surface of the premolars and molars is the occlusal surface.

    Dental Conditions

    • Pericoronitis is a localized infection caused by food particles and microorganisms trapped under the gum flaps.
    • The treatment for pericoronitis is removal of the infected tissue and antibiotics if necessary.
    • Enamel erosion is caused by acid erosion, attrition, and abrasion.
    • Gingivostomatitis is caused by herpes simplex virus.
    • The primary purpose of enamel is to protect the tooth from decay.

    Dental Development

    • The first primary tooth to erupt in most infants is the lower central incisor.
    • The first permanent tooth to erupt in most individuals is the first molar.
    • The correct sequence of permanent teeth eruption is first molar, central incisor, lateral incisor, canine, first premolar, and second premolar.

    Periodontitis

    • The main difference between plaque and calculus is that calculus is a mineralized plaque that promotes retention of bacterial biofilm.
    • The term for the inflammation of mucosal epithelial tissue surrounding the cervical portion of the teeth and the alveolar processes is periodontitis.
    • The primary cause of tooth loss in advanced stages of periodontitis is the destruction of the periodontal tissue.
