E N D
Definitions • It is a term used to describe pathological alterations or adaptive changes which develop in the periodontium as a result of undue force produced by the masticatory muscles. (OR) • An injury to the attachment apparatus as a result of excessive occlusal force.
Types • Primary • Tissue reaction around a tooth with normal height of the periodontium. • Secondary • Related to a situation around a tooth in which occlusal forces causes injury in a periodontium of reduced height.
Trauma form occlusion and plaque – associated periodontal disease • Glickman’s Concept (1955 –1970) • Chemical that the pathway of the spread of a plaque – associated gingival lesion can be changed if forces of an abnormal magnitude are acting a teeth having sub gingival plaque.
Trauma form occlusion and plaque – associated periodontal disease • Glickman’s Concept (1955 –1970) • Character of the progressive tissue destruction of the periodontium at a traumatized tooth will be different from that characterizing a non-traumatized.
Trauma form occlusion and plaque – associated periodontal disease • Glickman’s Concept (1955 –1970) • Zone of irritation Marginal and inter dental gingiva. • Zone of condensation Periodontal ligament root cementum and alveolar bone.
On Non Traumatized Tooth • First involve Alveolar bone, the P.D ligament, Bone destruction horizontal and uneven.
On Traumatized Tooth • Direct involve P.D. ligament angular bone loss.
Trauma from occlusion played a role in the spread of a gingival lesion into zone of codestruction • Codestruction means: • Loss of connective tissue • Resorption of bone • Increased tooth mobility • Depends upon: • Force of a magnitude • Frequency • Duration
Diagnosis • Probing depth, tooth mobility plaque, calculus, bone height widened periodontal space (X-Ray).
Tissue Reaction Under Pressure • Increased vascularization – increase permeability, disorganization of cells of collagen fibers bundles.
Treatment • Scaling – root planning • Pocket elimination • Occlusal adjustment
