Periodontology Quiz # 2

Contributed by:

Andrea
SDH  PRCC, MS.
  1. Structures of the periodontium are:
    1. Gingiva
    2. Periodontal Ligament
    3. Cementum
    4. Alveolar bone
    5. All of the above
  2. The oral mucosa consists of:  
  3. The gingiva & hard palates are composed of what type of mucosa?  
  4. Specialized mucosa can be found on what oral structure?  
  5. Is the COL keratinized?  
  6. Which keratinized gingival is located coronal to CEJ and surrounds tooth in a cuff like manner?  
  7. What occupies the embrasure?  
  8. Attached Gingiva is keratinized, and attached firmly to bone. Tightly connected to cementum on cervical 1/3 of the root & periosteium of alveolar bone. What does it lie between?  
  9. What are the boundaries of the gingival sulcus:  
  10. The gingival sulcus is lined with what kind of epithelium?  
  11. Covers the outer surface of the free gingival  & attached gingival: it extends from the crest of the gingival margin to the mucogingival junction, keratinized or para keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.  
  1. Not as thick as outer epithelium, epithelial lining of gingival sulcus extends from crest of gingival margin to coronal edge of junctional epithelium. Lining the pocket. Non-keratinized stratified epithelium without rete pegs.  
  1. Not as thick as outer epithelium, separates PDL from oral environment, determines the base of pocket, most coronal. Forms the base of the sulcus & joins the gingival to the tooth surface (epithelial attachment). Thin non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.  
  1. Gingival connective tissue is also known as:  
  1. Definition of above:  

Gingival Fibers/ Supragingival fiber bundles    

A. Embedded in cementum near the CEJ & fan out into the gingival connective tissue.

Gingivodental fibers    

B. Pass from cementum of one tooth over the crest of alveolar bone to the cementum of the adjacent tooth. Connect adjacent teeth to one another & secure their alignment in dental arch.

Circular Fibers    

C. Rope like collagen fiber bundles located coronal to crest of alveolar bone. Provides rigidity to tissue.

Transseptal Fibers    

D. Encircle tooth, coronal to alveolar crest & are not attached to cementum, connect adjacent teeth to one another.

 

  1. Secrete collagen:  
  2. Is gingival fluid increased or decreased in disease?  
  3. Which one of the principle fibers is only seen in multi-rooted teeth?  
  4. What fibers are not present in undeveloped, young, unerrupted teeth?

  1. Which fibers resist horizontal pressure against the crown of the tooth?

  1. The fibers that resist horizontal movement of the tooth?  
  2. These fibers resist vertical pressures that threaten to drive root into its socket and are located apical to horizontal fibers.  
  3. What are Sharpeys fibers?  
  4. Bone Builders=  
  5. Bone eaters, consumers =  
  6. Create cementum =  
  7. Alveolar bone supports & surrounds:  
  8. Cortical bone:  
  1. Cancellous bone:

  1. Cancellous bone is covered by:  
  2. What is the bony socket, cavity that houses the root:  
  3. Outline of socket:  
  4. Where is the Alveolar crest located in health & disease:

Health 

Disease 

  1. What area of bone lies between the proximal surfaces of 2 adjacent teeth?  
  2. Interradicular bone is found only in what?  
  3. A window like defect in cortical bone resulting in an isolated area of root that’s not covered by bone:  
  4. Cleft like defect in the cortical bone including bone margin:  
  5. Where is bone resorbed?  
  6. Where is bone formed?  
  7. Cementum:  
  1. 1st formed, uncalcified cementum:  
  2. Masses of cementum:  
  3. What % meets at the CEJ?  
  4. What % overlaps the enamel?  
  5. What % has a small gap between the enamel and cementum?
