Perio radiograph

QuestionAnswer
Is pulp radiolucent or radiopaque Radiolucent
Is the pdl space radiolucent or radiopaque Radiolucent
Is a periapical abscess radiolucent or radiopaque Radiolucent
Is bone marrow space radiolucent or radiopaque Radiolucent
Is bone loss and defects radiolucent or radiopaque Radiolucent
Are metals and amalgams radiolucent or radiopaque Radiopaque
Is enamel radiolucent or radiopaque Radiopaque
Is Dentin radiolucent or radiopaque Radiopaque
Is compact and cortical bone radiolucent or radiopaque Radiopaque
What are the limitations for xray perio assessment 2D, buccal bone hides bone loss on lingual, palatal root makes furcation detection difficult, can't see non calcified tissues
Anatomy visible on radipgraphs Alveolar bone, pdl space, cementum
Radiograph shows disease activity False
What are the 3 signs of early bone changes on a radiograph Fuzziness, widening pdl, radiolucent line
What is triangulation Widening of pdl space on mesial/distal of interdental crest caused by bone resorption (funneling)
Radiographs are useful for all except Perio pockets
Why do finger like projections that extend from the crystal bone into the interdental bone happen? Represent reduction of mineralized tissue adjacent to blood vessels channels in alveolar bone loss
L.A.S.E.R Light, amplification, stimulated, emmision of, radiation
Characteristics of white visible light Multiple wave lengtgslengths, non directional, non-focused
Wavelengths can be focused, very directional Collimated
Very precise color or wavelength Monochromatic
Wavelengths are superimposed on one another synchronized in phrase Coherency
What is a wavelength The distance from wave crest to wave crest
In general the properties of lasers light are much different from those of natural light. Which of the following is false Laser light is usually divergent
Depending on the specific type of laser, laser energy is emitted in very specific portions of the electromagnetic spectrum . Where in the spectrum do most lasers operate In both the visible and infrared portions
What is a photon The elemental quantity, or quantum of radiant energy
When using a laser power density is Measure in watts/cm2
Laser power is expressed as Watts
Dental laser beams are conducted by all of the following except Platinum cable
Assuming both beams have equal power, the smaller fiber Will have High power density
Which of the following are examples of ionizing radiation Xrays, gamma rays, ultra violet rays
Diode lasers seem what tissue targets Melanin and hemoglobin
Optical pumping is used to achieve which step is laser creation Emission of photons
What is the most important effect of lasers on tissues Absorption
Which is better pulse or continuous Different settings for different applications
The emission mode that has true pulsed bursts of laser energy is Free running pulsed
A laser running in continuous modes peak power is The same as it's average power
Thermal relaxation refers to The tissues ability to absorb and dissipate hear to help minimize thermal damage with pulsed laser usage
The ability to speed healing, increase circulation, reduce edema, minimize pain Photobiomodulation/biostimulation
As temperature rises, various effects occur. At approximately 100C , which of the following effects occur Tissue vaporization
Fluorescence of tissue stimulated by laser light is mostly important in Caries diagnosis
The primary biological effect of lasers when performing soft tissue procedure is Photothermal
What are erbium lasers good for Prevent osteocronosis
The disease operates at 810nm
The diodes laser wavelength visible to the eye False
Erbium lasers Are hard and soft tissue capable
When cutting hard tissue with an erbium laser Minimal thermal effects are observed in adjacent tissue when use properly
Nd yag lasers Are 1064 nm wavelength
Diode lasers Use a semiconductor stimulated by electricity to produce laser light
Water is the primary chromophore for diode laser wavelengths, diode lasers run in free running pulsed mode Both are false
Which is not a desired effect of laser interaction on soft tissue Edema
Which of the following do you accomplish with biostimulation All of above
Reasons to perform laser bacterial reduction are All of above
Which of the following is not critical before performing any laser treatment on a patient
