Q
2 year with caries in all upper incisors and 6s
pattern of caries here
A
nursing bottle/early childhood caries
14
Q
explain pattern and distribution of decay in nursing bottle/early childhood caries
why are some teeth not in the pattern?
A
lower incisors are spared from decay as they are physically protected by the nursing position of the child’s tongue - the artifical nipple of bottle rests against the palate, while tongue is extended over the lower incisors
maxillary incisors - 1st to experience the cariogenic challenge and suffer the longest cariogenic attack because of early eruption
if habit continues, other teeth (mandibular canines and all 6s) will be subjected to the cariogenic challenge in sequence of eruption
15
Q
5 causes of nursing bottle/early childhood caries
A
- no brushing of teeth - minimal fluride exposure
- child put to bed with a bottle thus allowing prolonged exposure of the baby’s teeth to cariogenic sugars
- as a result of inappropriate use of feeding bottles and cups (contents sugar)
- prolonged breastfeeding
- baby may not swallow all milk or contents of bottle and therefore remnants can swirl around the oral cavity for prolonged timeframes
16

A
proclined upper incisors
retroclined lower incisors
anterior open bite or incomplete open bite
unilateral posterior cross bite
narrowed upper arch
23
Q
how does thumb sucking affect posterior dentition
A
pt thumb and digits are positioned in the mouth in such a way that they result in the mandible to drop open
- this cause the pt’s tongue to be held and occupied in a lower position that what is deemed normal
sucking action initiaited by the muscular forces in the cheek’s narrows the maxillary arch - causing posterior cross bite
24
Q
4 methods of preventing/stopping a digit sucking habit
A
- behaviour management therapy (positive reinforcement)
- plasters, gloves or bitter flavoured agents applied to digits to make habit less satisfying
- URA with a rake
- habit reversal - do another activity when urge to suck arises

30
3 times when you would intervene to stop tooth mobility
if it is progressively increasing
if it gives rise to symptoms
if it creates difficulty with restorative treatment
31
would you expect tooth mobility to inc or dec in a pt with moderate-advanced perio disease following HPT - why?
expect to decrease
expect clinical reattachment via long junctional epithelium
32
pt has mobile lower incisors and refuses XLA
what would you advise? what are disadv?
**splinting** may be appropriate when tooth mobility is caused by advanced LOA, or causing discomfort or difficulty chewing
but splinting does not influence the rate of periodontal destruction and may create hygiene difficulties

72
dentist causes facial palsy as a result of right IAN block
pt has sore right TMJ
how is the facial palsy caused?
if the clinician doesn't hit the bone and inserts the needle too far back, LA is deposited in parotid gland
facial nerve runs through it, due to the dense fascia around the gland the LA will remain for a long time and cause paralysis of the facial muscles that the nerve innervates
73
dentist causes facial palsy as a result of right IAN block
pt has sore right TMJ
3 differences between stroke and facial palsy
* facial palsy occurs as a result of LA administered into the parotid gland and affects the side injected
* stroke causes loss of movement of facial muscles on opposite side
* if it is stroke, the pt can still wrinkle their forehead on the affected side
74
explain the neural anatomy which accounts for difference between stoke and facial palsy
in a stroke there is interruption of supra nuclear fibres from the motor areas of cerebral cortex, before they reach the facial motor nucleus
the upper part of the facial motor nucleus receives crossed and uncrossed fibres and the frontalis and orbicularis oculi still have the ability to function as a result
unlike in facial palsy
75
