What are clinical signs and symptoms of allergic reactions in the oral cavity? Gingival erythema, BOP, burning sensation, ulcerations a. b. c. d. a. Sore bright red gums Swelling Itching Burning sensation What are lichenoid drug reactions? i. Drug reaction resembling lichen planus (red or white lesions/erosions/ulcerations) on oral mucosa and gingiva. Caused by drugs like ACE inhibitors, beta blockers, diuretics, NSAIDs, etc. Lichenoid drug reactions, also known as Lichenoid Mucositis (LM), is a generalized term used for a wide range of mucosal lesions that closely mimic oral lichen planus. Oral lesions caused by LM have been associated with drug intake, systemic diseases, food allergies, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus as well as many other foreign substances. They appear as gray to white interlacing reticular patterns set within an erythematous background. Lesions are usually unilateral and may exhibit ulceration and/or sloughing of the affected mucosa. b. What can be local mucosal and gingival responses to restorative materials? i. Foreign body reaction, enlargement, erythema, inflammation of mucosa/gingiva ● Purpose: Further enlarges to the final implant size. d. Paralleling Pin or Direction Indicator: ● ● When: Before drilling. Purpose: Guides drilling direction for accurate placement. e. Bone Tap: ● ● When: After osteotomy preparation. Purpose: Threads the implant site for stability. f. Implant Driver: Oral lesions related to dental restorative materials are commonly linked to metallic dental appliances and other restorative materials, presenting as a localized allergic reaction of the oral mucosa. c. What does an allergy towards toothpaste or mouth rinses look like? How can you find out if it an allergy? If known, what history of present illness detail makes this a sure diagnosis? i. Inflammation or erythema of gingiva/mucosa, itching or burning sensation. Begin perio therapy, OHI, avoid spicy foods, avoid alcohol, use baking soda, warm saltwater rinse. Reevaluate in two weeks, if it is gone in two weeks then slowly start reintroducing food and OH products one at a time to identify cause. If the lesion is not gone, biopsy or refer to allergist. An allergy towards toothpaste or mouth rinse would have the following clinical presentation. a. Unilateral blisters b. Erythema of the entire oral cavity with possible extension to the lips, with no injury or changes in medical history. c. Unilateral white lesions that resemble lichen planus. The best way to diagnose an allergic reaction is to question the patient/collect data. The goal is to figure out if the patient has introduced something different to her diet or oral hygiene routine.

INDBE Style Questions The case will involve implant placement in a patient with type 2 diabetes. 1. Based on your knowledge of systemic-periodontal relationships, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who receive implant treatment are more likely to experience what condition? How could you prevent this condition? Increased risk of poor healing, inflammation, bone loss → peri-implantitis. Ensure diabetes (blood glucose levels, HbA1c) is well-controlled prior to placement and continue to monitor during post-op treatment. Patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing implant treatment may be more susceptible to peri-implantitis. Prevention involves: Control Blood Sugar: Necrotizing periodontitis ● Maintain optimal glucose levels. Oral Hygiene: ● Emphasize meticulous oral care. Regular Check-ups: ● 2. Herpetic gingivostomatitis Toothpaste allergy Schedule routine dental visits. (Critical thinking test – I did not cover this verbatim in class, and I want to see who can figure this out on their own. This will likely be multiple choice item, and there will only be one correct answer). What do you think happens to gingival esthetics if the following happens as result of implant placement? a. Implant platform close to adjacent tooth root: bone loss, gingival recession? b. Implant platform significantly facial to ideal implant position c. Implant platform is significantly coronal to bone level d. Implant platform is significantly apical to the CEJ of adjacent teeth: bone loss, recession? a.
