Gum Gardeners Study Club 2.27.17 TEAM PERIODONTICS: WORKING TOGETHER TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE Michael K. Setter D.D.S., M.S.D. WHAT DO PERIODONTISTS DO THAT IS BEYOND YOUR TREATMENT? YOU ARE THE PERIODONTISTS IN YOUR PRACTICE! Hard Tissue Management Supportive Therapies (Night Guard, Occlusal Adjustment, etc.) OBJECTIVE Create a heightened sense of Periodontal Awareness Help more patients Do more Periodontal Therapy Assure thoroughness in Diagnosis and Treatment Dale Carnegie Give YOU the tools to talk to patients THE SMILE IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TOOLS IN INFLUENCING PEOPLE 1

WHERE DOES PERIODONTAL THERAPY START? WHAT WE DO IS IMPORTANT! The First Visit The Examination Re-Care Visit Periodic Exam THE EXAMINATION The Medical History The Dental History The Clinical Examination Possible Physician Consultation The Radiographic Examination THE MEDICAL HISTORY THE MEDICAL HISTORY Findings that would influence the DELIVERY of dental treatment Contraindications IV Bisphosphonates Bleeding Disorders Complications Prosthetic Joints Allergies to Therapeutic Medications THE MEDICAL HISTORY Findings that would influence the OUTCOME of dental treatment Systemic Illness Diabetes Pregnancy Medications Calcium Channel Blockers Cyclosporin Bisphosphonates 2

THE MEDICAL HISTORY Hematologic Disorders Leukemia Bone Marrow Transplants Immune System Disorders HIV AIDS THE MEDICAL HISTORY Findings that would make dental health/disease a risk for systemic health Cardiovascular Disease Stroke Diabetes Pregnancy Prosthetic Joints Etc. THE MEDICAL HISTORY Should You Treat This Patient? How Should You Treat This Patient? How Aggressively Should You Treat This Patient? THE DENTAL HISTORY THE DENTAL HISTORY Present Chief Complaint What Problems Is the Patient Having? History of Chief Complaint Patient s Goals of Treatment Short Term Goals Long Term Goals (KEEP THEIR TEETH?) Relevant Dental Treatment History Past Periodontal Treatment Maintenance Care History THE CLINICAL EXAMINATION 3

THE CLINICAL EXAMINATION Extra-oral Examination Neck Palpation Nodes Peri-oral tissues Lips Intra-oral Examination Buccal Mucosa Palate Floor of the Mouth Tongue THE CLINICAL EXAMINATION Missing Teeth Damaging Movement Caused By Missing Teeth Bone Loss Caused By Missing Teeth Plaque Level Calculus Level Inflammation Level THE CLINICAL EXAMINATION Mucogingival Evaluation Recession Keratinized Tissue Frenum Pulls Periodontal Charting Pocket Depths Bleeding, Exudates Furcations Mobility THE CLINICAL EXAMINATION Occlusal Examination Prematurities Parafunction Fremitus Hard Tissues Caries Defective Restorations Open Contacts Gingival Display/Esthetics EVALUATION OF ORAL HYGIENE Presence or Absence of Food Debris, Plaque and/or Calculus Plaque Index Evidence of Traumatic Brushing and/or Flossing EVALUATION OF SOFT TISSUES Color Contour Texture Integrity of Papillae Spontaneous Bleeding and/or Suppuration 4

PERIODONTAL CHARTING PERIODONTAL PROBING THE PROBE IS THE KEY TO PERIODONTAL DIAGNOSIS; IT S SAID WHEN THE PROBE APPEARS, THE DISEASE APPEARS. AND WHEN THE PROBE DISAPPEARS, SO DO THE TEETH. FACTORS EFFECTING THE ACCURACY OF PERIODONTAL PROBING Pressure (25 grams of force) Angulation Tooth Contour Inflammatory Status Type of Probe Accurate to within ~ 1.0 mm. BLEEDING ON PROBING MEASUREMENT OF GINGIVAL RECESSION 5

EVALUATION OF TOOTH MOBILITY *Grade 1: crown of tooth moves 0.2 to 1.0 mm in a horizontal direction. EVALUATION OF FURCATION INVOLVEMENT Grade 2: crown of tooth moves > 1.0 mm horizontally. Grade 3: crown of tooth moves in a vertical direction. *Method for recording mobility proposed by Lindhe EVALUATION OF OCCLUSION AND INTERDENTAL RELATIONSHIPS DENTAL RADIOGRAPHS Please Evaluate tooth #14 for Possible Perio Endo. NEW PATIENT Soft Tissue Management Has Been Completed. 6

What else is going on? DIAGNOSIS Moderate to Advanced Periodontitis Bruxism Occlusal Trauma Root Fracture #14 TREATMENT PLAN Occlusal Adjustment Pocket Reduction Prognosis Overall Good #2,3,14,15 Poor to Hopeless IN THIS CASE Distribution of Bone Loss was Important Early Furcation Loss was Important Mobility was Important Occlusal Examination was Important 7

POCKETS: GOOD CLINICAL RECORDS ARE ESSENTIAL For Diagnosis and development of an appropriate course of treatment. As an objective means to monitor progress of treatment or disease. To minimize liability risks. For processing insurance claims 0 to 3 mm = healthy to gingivitis = Type I 3 to 4 mm = early periodontitis = Type II 4 to 6 mm = moderate periodontitis = Type III 6 mm or greater = advanced periodontitis = Type IV THREE TREATMENT TREES FOR PERIODONTAL THERAPY EXAMINATION TREATMENT RE-EVALUATION MAINTENANCE AND MONITORING THREE TREATMENT TREES FOR PERIODONTAL THERAPY EXAMINATION TREATMENT RE-EVALUATION REFER FOR SPECIALTY CARE MAINTENANCE AND MONITORING RE-EVALUATION RE-EVALUATION SCORE ORAL HYGIENE GOOD/FAIR/POOR OFFER SUGGESTIONS REPROBE AND CHART POCKET AREAS MARK BLEEDING POINTS, SUPPURATION AND SIGNS OF INFLAMMATION RECORD MUCOGINGIVAL DEFECTS ZONES OF INADEQUATE ATTACHED GINGIVA EVALUATE MOBILITY AND OCCLUSAL PROBLEMS RE-EVALUATE THE RADIOGRAPHS ESPECIALLY BONE LEVELS DECIDE TO REFER TO A PERIODONTIST OR TO CONTINUE MAINTENANCE 8

Recommend doing with anesthetic Must do a re-evaluation following scaling and root planing WHAT IS THE PROBLEM TODAY? Periodontal Therapy has become synonymous with: SOFT TISSUE MANAGEMENT COMPANY PROFILE 10

The Restorative Equivalent of: CARIES REMOVAL Hard Tissue Management Beyond Soft Tissue Management is: HARD TISSUE MANAGEMENT Main Periodontal Procedures Dental implants Non-surgical treatments Scaling and root planning Adjunctive/antibiotic therapy Laser therapy Periodontal surgery Pocket reduction procedures Regenerative procedures Soft tissue grafts Crown lengthening Cosmetic procedures Ridge augmentation Scaling Root planing Bone regeneration Mild periodontitis Advanced periodontitis Before soft tissue graft After soft tissue graft Before and after ridge augmentation Before crown lengthening After crown lengthening WHICH PROCEDURES DO YOU DO AND WHEN? 11

TREATMENTS FOR PERIODONTAL DEFECTS Scaling and Root Planing +- Supportive Therapy Osseous Surgery (Flap Surgery) Guided Tissue Regeneration Gingivectomy Laser Periodontal Therapy SLOW DOWN! Patients first need to understand and own their disease TALKING PERIODONTAL DISEASE Explain periodontal probings before you take them, patients have no clue what a 6mm pocket means Overhear works very well, say numbers out loud Biologic Seal around the tooth; these numbers test to see if you have a leaky seal Leaky seals allow bacteria to invade the gums and nest Nesting bacteria erodes the bone around your teeth and can cause them to loosen and fall out TALKING PERIODONTAL DISEASE Gum disease usually doesn t hurt so it s best (easier, less expensive) to treat early Our goal is to help you keep your teeth for the rest of your life To do that, we need your toothbrush and floss to work for you because you brush 365 days a year 1-3 times per day and we only see you 2,3,4 times Your toothbrush and floss can only reach 3mm and my instruments can t really reach beyond 4mm TALKING PERIODONTAL DISEASE I think it s best that we (do a deep cleaning, increase recalls, refer to a periodontist) in order to keep these pockets at a maintainable level There is no cure for periodontal disease, it has to be managed like blood pressure or diabetes; it never goes away, can go up and down, and can come back once you have it under control TREATMENTS FOR PERIODONTAL DEFECTS Osseous Surgery (Flap Surgery) Improve Hard Tissue Contours (Create Physiologic Architecture) Access for Debridement Pocket Reduction Visual Inspection (cracks, root grooves, etc.) Talking Surgery It s a surgical deep cleaning that removes the nesting bacteria and stitches healthy gums down tighter around the tooth creating a healthier and more cleansible area 12

TREATMENTS FOR PERIODONTAL DEFECTS TREATMENTS FOR PERIODONTAL DEFECTS Guided Tissue Regeneration Similar to osseous surgery but may not be resective Trying to regenerate: bone, PDL, cementum Can use a variety of different methods: Emdogain/Gem 21/PRP Bone Grafts Membranes Bone regeneration Guided Tissue Regeneration Need to have bone in order to get bone Talking Perio The periodontist may try to regrow the bone and gum attachment to the tooth Bone regeneration TREATMENTS FOR PERIODONTAL DEFECTS Gingivectomy Not often performed; mostly cosmetic Pocket formation without bone loss Remove overgrowth Talking Perio Keep your eyes out for gummy smiles TREATMENTS FOR PERIODONTAL DEFECTS Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure Same goals as the other therapies Not resective but regenerative Uses lasers instead of incisions/stitches Uses the patient s own blood cells for healing Before crown lengthening After crown lengthening HOW DO YOU DECIDE ON TREATMENT? Review the Clinical Information (Health, Radiographs, Past Periodontal Charts) Review Oral Hygiene Garbage In, Garbage Out -no surgery unless the patient can take care of it Defect Morphology and Probing Information Determine our Treatment Options Number of bony walls Morphology of Defect What will the end result look like? Cosmetics, Amount of Gingiva, Gingival Levels 13

Successful treatment of recession-type defects is based on the use of predictable periodontal plastic surgery (PPS) procedures. Gingival Recession - Causes Mechanical Trauma Tooth Position Periodontal Inflammation/Disease Frenal/Muscle Attachments Orthodontic Movement Gingival Recession - Causes Trauma-induced Recession Flossing Clefts Red clefts Incomplete clefts Complete clefts 18

Trauma-induced Recession Orthodontic Movement Foreign Body Trauma Piercings Toothpicks Other Oral Habits Often seen with labial movement outside the alveolar housing Hygiene can be compromised from the hardware or narrow clefting Often seen with extraction of a lower incisor Thin Periodontal Tissues at Risk Post-Orthodontic Recession Often seen when teeth are moved outside the alveolus or into thin alveolar bone Most commonly first molars and lower incisors Can see it generalized Grafting Before/After Orthodontics Interdisciplinary Treatment Planning Restorative Orthodontic Periodontal Patient Depending on tooth movement and properties of the periodontal tissues Orthodontic Treatment 19

Tooth Hypersensitivity Plaque Accumulation Is there plaque accumulation due to an irregular gingival margin? Questions to Ask: Diagnosis Is the recession a cosmetic concern? Has the recession been progressing? Can the patient clean the area? Is there localized marginal inflammation? Is there a caries risk with the exposed cementum? Are you planning restorative dentistry? Can the tissues support the trauma? Is the tissue thickness adequate for an ideal result? Questions to Ask: Diagnosis Does the patient have tooth sensitivity? Non-surgical, MGS, restorative Are there other local factors involved? Tooth Wear Tooth Position Rotations Orthodontics Etc.
