Question
Answer
What type of epithelium is the gingiva made of?   show
🗑
Name two types of gingiva that are keratinized or parakeratinized.   show
🗑
show 1. stratum basale 2. stratum spinosum 3. stratum granulosum 4. stratum corneum  
🗑
show stratum basale  
🗑
show stratum spinosum  
🗑
How is nonkeratinized epithelium different than keratinized?   show
🗑
show *sulcular epithelium *interdental col tissue *Jnctional epithelium (JE)  
🗑
show it is permeable & fluid & leukocytes move from connective tissue into the sulcus; also allows bacteria & byproducts to pass into gingival tissue  
🗑
What is the easiest point of entry for bacterial to invade the connective tissue of the gingiva?   show
🗑
show hemidesmosomes connect epithelial cells to the INTERNAL basal lamina (cell to basal lamina)  
🗑
show hemidesmosomes connect epithelial cells to the EXTERNAL basal lamina (cell to basal lamina)  
🗑
What are desmosomes?   show
🗑
Do epithelial cells contain blood vessels?   show
🗑
show Provides solidity to the gingiva & attaches the gingiva to the cementum & alveolar bone.  
🗑
Name the two components of gingival connective tissue.   show
🗑
show *protein fibers (collagen fibers) *ground substance (made from carboydrate)& gel like substance  
🗑
Name the different types of cells found in gingival connective tissue.   show
🗑
What are gingival fiber groups?   show
🗑
Name the 9 gingival fiber groups.   show
🗑
What do the alveologingival fiber bundles do?   show
🗑
What do the dentogingival fiver bundles do?   show
🗑
show encircle the tooth & connect adjacent teeth to one another  
🗑
show attach gingiva to the bone (causes stippling effect)  
🗑
show extend in a mesiodistal direction link adjacent teeth into a dental arch unit  
🗑
What do intercircular fiber bundles do?   show
🗑
show connect the oral & vestibular interdental papillae of posterior teeth  
🗑
What do transgingival fiber bundles do?   show
🗑
What do transseptal fiber bundles do   show
🗑
What is the biologic width?   show
🗑
What is the length of the biologic width?   show
🗑
What role does biologic width play in dental restorations?   show
🗑
Define periodontal ligament.   show
🗑
Name the components of the PDL.   show
🗑
What are the functions of the PDL?   show
🗑
show *alveolar crest *horizontal *oblique *apical *interradicular fiber groups  
🗑
What do alveolar crest fiber groups do?   show
🗑
show (right angle to long axis of tooth) resists horizontal movements of the tooth  
🗑
What do oblique fiber groups do?   show
🗑
show (apical-diagonal dir.) secure tooth to socket & resists forces that might lift the tooth out of the socket  
🗑
show (only in multirooted teeth) stablize tooth in its socket  
🗑
show The ends of the PDL fibers that are embedded in the cementum and alveolar bone.  
🗑
What is cementum?   show
🗑
show 1. seals & covers open dentinal tubules & protects underlying dentin 2. attaches the periodontal fibers to the tooth 3. forms new cementum & compensates for attrition  
🗑
What are the components of mature cementum?   show
🗑
Name the two types of cementum.   show
🗑
show 60  
🗑
What % of cases does cementum meet enamel at the CEJ?   show
🗑
show 10  
🗑
What is the alveolar bone made of?   show
🗑
show False, alveolar bone is constantly undergoing periods of formation & resorption.  
🗑
Name the components of alveolar bone.   show
🗑
What tissue serves as a covering tissue for the outer surfaces of the body and a lining tissue for body cavities such as the mouth, stomach, and intestines?   show
🗑
show Connective tissue  
🗑
show nonkeratinized layer  
🗑
Epithelial cell junctions are cellular structures that can attach to...   show
🗑
show allow cells to bind together to function as a strong structural unit  
🗑
What is a cell junction that connects an epithelial basal cell to the basal lamina called?   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show Epithelial ridges  
🗑
T/F Connective tissue comprises a gellike substance, fibers, and few cells.   show
🗑
T/F The sulcular and junctional epithelium are keratinized epithelial tissues.   show
🗑
What is the epithelium that forms the base of the sulcus and joins the gingiva to the tooth called?   show
🗑
In the junctional epithelium, epithelial cells attach to neighboring epithelial cells via...   show
🗑
The junctional epithelium attaches to the tooth surface via what?   show
🗑
show Hemidesmosomes and the external basal lamina  
🗑
The biologic width is the distance from the (a) to the (b)?   show
🗑
show (a) tooth (b) bony socket  
🗑
T/F An important function of the cementum of the tooth is to attach the periodontal ligament fibers to the tooth.   show
🗑
T/F Alveolar bone is mineralized connective tissue?   show
🗑
