Question
Answer
the periodontium consists of tissues that support the teeth and is divided into ...   gingival unit attachment unit  
🗑
The Gingival unit consists of   free gingiva attached gingiva alveolar mucosa  
🗑
The attachment unit consists of   cementum alveolar process periodontal ligament  
🗑
Masticatory mucosa is   thick epithelial covering and keratinized cells , underlying mucos is composed to dense collegin fibers  
🗑
gingival sulcus   space between the free gingiva and tooth  
🗑
characteristics of free gingiva   masticatory mucosa slight mobility eptihelium slight keratination no rete peg formation smooth light pink collagenous fibers  
🗑
characteristics of attached gingiva   masticatory mucosa tightly bound thick epithelia layer keratinized rete peg formation light red to dark pink collagenous fibers  
🗑
characteristics of alveolar mucosa   lining mucosa movable and elastic thinner epithelial layer nonkeratinized no ret peg formation smooth pink-red collagenous fibers with some muscle fibers  
🗑
lamina propria    
🗑
gingivitis   inflammation involving the gingival tissues only  
🗑
periodontal disease   infections of the structures around the teeth  
🗑
Periodontal ligament fiber names   apical, oblique, horizontal, alveolar crest, free gingival, transeptal  
🗑
The periodontium include what structures   gingiva, periodontal ligament fibers, alveolar bone, root cementum  
🗑
functions of health gingiva   support, esthetics, protection, phonetics  
🗑
Black triangle disease   open embrasures  
🗑
lamina propria   an underlying connective tissue layer  
🗑
sharpeys fibers   collagen fibers embedded in the cementum of alveolar bone  
🗑
Where does the blood supply of ginvgival tissue come from?   supraperiosteal vessles  
🗑
alveolar bone   thin covering of bone that surrounds the teeth  
🗑
function of attachment apparatus   support, nutritive, formative, sensory  
🗑
Two kinds of cementum   cellular acellular  
🗑
What type of cementum is free of embedded cementoblases and is clear with out structure   acellular  
🗑
What type of cementum has embedded ceementoblasts   cellular  
🗑
where is acellular cementum found   covering the the cervical third of the root and sometimes extends over most of the root, not the apical portion.  
🗑
were is cellular cementum found?   the apical portion of the root, sometimes forming OVER the acellular cementum  
🗑
How does cementum grow   appositon (addition of new layers)  
🗑
The socket in which the tooth rests is called?   alveolus  
🗑
lamina dura   atchement lining of bone around the tooth  
🗑
bundle bone   numerous layers of bone are added to the socket wall, forms the immediate attachment of the PDL with sharpys fibers  
🗑
The bone between teeth with multiple roots is called   interradicular bone  
🗑
alveolar crest group   fibers extending from the cervical area of the tooth to the alveolar crest  
🗑
horizontal group   fubers running horizontally from the tooth to the alveolar bone  
🗑
oblique group   fibers running obliquely from cementum to the bone  
🗑
apical group   fibers radiating apically from the tooth to the bone  
🗑
interradicular group   periodontal fibers between roots of multirooted teeth  
🗑
The main portion of the PDL is composed of   bundles of white collagenous connective tissue fibers  
🗑
