MRSA - ANS-Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-is a strain of the staph
bacteria that lives on 20-30% of the population but does not cause infection in all who
are colonized with it. MRSA resides on the skin and in the nasal passage, and once you
contract a MRSA staph infection it can be very difficult to eradicate the bacteria.
MRSA antibiotics - ANS-Many antibiotics can be used to treat this condition. Look for
any of these: vancomycin, linezolid, bactrim, septra, tetracycline, minocycline,
doxycycline, and clindamycin.
Prednisone - ANS-Delayed wound healing, poor healing, with increased risk of infection.
This medication affects the immune response.
Ultrasonic insert with plastic tips - ANS-Can be used with implants for removal of
calculus. Also, titanium and plastic hand instruments can be used on implants.
Oraqix duration - ANS-Approximately 20 minutes.
Hutchinson's Incisors - ANS-Congenital syphillus- notched incisal edges on incisors,
also mulberry molars- tiny globules of enamel instead of cusps on first molars.
Class I Occlusion - ANS-(Mesognathic)-normal; mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first
molar is positioned in the buccal groove of the mandibular first molar. Maxillary canine
occluded with the distal half of the mandibular canine and the mesial half of the
mandibular first premolar.
Class II Occlusion - ANS-(Retrognathic) buccal groove of the mandibular first
permanent molar is distal go the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent
molar by at least the width of a premolar. Distal portion of the maxillary canine is mesial
to the mesial portion of the mandibular canine by at lease the width of a premolar.
Division I-retruded mandible with one or more maxillary anterior teeth protruded facially.
Division II- retruded mandible with one or more maxillary anterior teeth inclined lingually.
, Class III Occlusion - ANS-(Prognathic) Buccal groove of the mandibular first permanent
molar is mesial to the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar by at
lease the width of a premolar. Mesial portion of the maxillary canine is distal to the distal
surface of the mandibular canine by the width of a premolar.
Leeway space - ANS-This difference in size, mesiodistally between the two types of
teeth. The contour of the bone covering the narrower roots of the premolars, in addition
to the state of flux of the bone formation in this area, furnishes adjustment for dental
arch measurements, making the middle segment of the arches important architecturally.
Leeway space allows the future forward movement of the permanent molars.
Hairy tongue - ANS-Elongation of filiform papillae (dorsum) clean tongue.
Hairy leukoplakia - ANS-Lateral border, white, corrugated lesions, associated with HIV,
Epstein Barr virus.
Geographic tongue - ANS-Benign, inflammatory condition, irregular patches look like
map.
Anemia - ANS-Impaired O2 delivery, 1st pale tongue, flattening of filiform papillae,
finally painful and red.
Fissured tongue - ANS-Associated with xerostomia, clean tongue.
Median Rhomboid Glossitis - ANS-Raised, red, glossy, slanted rectangular shape on
dorsum due to Candida albicans infection.
Mucocele - ANS-Swelling due to mucus from accessory salivary glands, common, most
mandibular labial mucosa.
Angular cheilitis - ANS-Red fissures at commissures, C. albicans and Staphylococcus
aureus, nutritional deficiency, denture irritation.
4 classic features of infection - ANS-Heat
Pain
Redness
Swelling
Hematoma - ANS-Larger localized bruise, black eyes, mistakenly injecting posterior
superior alveolar vein.
