– Review the Clinic Form and process for the hard tissue Review from – Review the symbols for hard tissue documentation last week – Review documentation. Hard Tissue – Review ADPIED process Extraoral and Intraoral Clinical Assessment D & W Chapter 16 Wilkins Chapter 13 2 – Purpose is to ensure that a thorough assessment has been completed of the Head & Neck areas to provide client specific Extra Oral & care/ – Any changes or areas that may be suspect may be identified by Intra Oral doing a thorough examination. Assessment – The dental hygienist determines the abnormal findings. An assessment is done to locate what is within normal limits (WNL) and then to identify if it is abnormal. 3 – Lesion: indicates change in structure of an organ or part attributable to injury or disease Assessment – Atypical finding: a finding that is a variation from normal Procedure – Abnormal finding: a finding that could prove to be a serious, possibly even prove to be fatal finding 4 Rationale for Early identification of abnormalities and the Extraoral pathologies and Intraoral May reveal signs of: Examination Thyroid disorders Eating disorders Nutritional deficiencies Sexually transmitted diseases Systemic conditions 5 – Observation: – Palpation: Assessment Skills – Auscultation: Table 16.1 – Olfaction: 6 – Digital palpation Palpation – Bidigital palpation Methods – Manual palpation – Bimanual palpation – Bilateral palpation Table 16-2 – Circular compression 7 Figure 13-1 Palpation of the Lip 8 Figure 13-2 Bimanual Palpation 9 Extraoral Clinical Assessment 10 – Normal face and head findings: – Symmetric – Skin continuous and firm with normal variations of pigmentation Conducting – Atypical findings: Extraoral – Moles, freckles, scars Assessments – Piercings, tattoos – Abnormal findings: – Needle marks from drug use – Trauma caused by domestic violence 11 1.
