4. Definition:
Case History is a planned professional
conversation between patient and doctor which
enables the patient to express his symptoms, fear
and feelings to the clinician so that the nature of
patient’s real or suspected illness and mental
attitude may be determined.
(Malcolm A. Lynch)
5. To Establish Diagnosis
Assessment Of Systemic Compliance
Prevention of any Possible Medical EMERGENCIES
with known medical History
Effective Treatment Planning
6. The purpose of making a diagnosis is to be able to offer
the most effective and safe treatment
■Accurate prognostication.
Diagnosis is made by the clinical examination, which
comprises the:
■History (anamnesis) – this offers the diagnosis in about
80% of cases
■ Physical examination
■ Supplemented in some cases by investigations.
8. The clinician should use ‘LEAPS’:
■ Listen
■ Empathize
■ Ask
■ Paraphrase
■ Summarize.

17. E.g.: Tailors, Beauticians – notching of incisal edges of
upper teeth.
In acidic environment – erosion of teeth.
Musicians - soft tissue trauma ,herpes ,dry mouth,
TMJ pain.
Paint industry- mercury poisoning, lead poisoning.
Mining- silicosis, asbestosis.
Cotton mills – Bysinnosis
Sugarcane industry – Bagassosis.
18.
19. The chief complaint is established by asking the
patient to describe the problem for which he or she
is seeking help or treatment.
Make every attempt to quote the patients own
words
The chief complaint aids in the diagnosis and
treatment planning and should be given the first
priority.
20. It is the record of narrative account of patient’s
problem from the onset to present time listing all
the symptoms, signs, treatment undergone in a
chronological order.
21. If the patient has pain, a useful mnemonic is
‘SOCRATES’:
S – site (localized ,diffuse ,referred, radiating)
O – onset (spontaneous, on stimulation, intermittent)
C – character (dull, sharp, throbbing, constant)
R – radiation,
A – associations (other symptoms),
T – timing/duration,
E –exacerbating and alleviating factors (cold, heat,
palpation, percussion Relieved by ;cold, heat, any
medication ,sleep)
S – severity (rate the pain on a visual analogue scale of
1–10).
22.
23. Time and place of alleged assault/injury.
Was the assailant known to the patient?
Was there any loss of consciousness?
Was the patient under the influence of alcohol?
Were there any other injuries to the body?
Were there any witnesses? (In particular, if
consciousness is in doubt.)
What happened immediately after the assault? Are the
police involved or likely to become involved?
Note any ‘old’ injuries, for example a tooth previously
fractured or previous facial injuries.
24.
25. Primary function of PMH is to avoid
complications during dental treatment.
PMH is usually organized in following sub-
divisions:-

temperature-sensitive strips and sensors are available.
The normal body temperatures are:
Oral 36.6°c;
Rectal or ear(tympanic membrane) 37.4°c;
And axillary 36.5°c.
In most adults, an oral temperature above 37.8°C or a rectal
or ear temperature above 38.3°C is considered a fever
(pyrexia).
A child has a fever when ear temperature is 38°c or higher
64. Normal 120/80 mm of Hg.
Systolic controlled by stroke volume of the heart &
stiffness of the arterial vessels.

121. Ultrasound contains waves with a frequency of more
than 20,000 cycles/second which the human ears
cannot hear.
In medical sonography, frequencies used are
commonly 2-10 MHz
122. Good definition of soft tissue structures in any plane
Useful for areas of complex anatomy such as maxilla or
base of skull
Definition further improved by use of contrast media
Density of tissues is numbered as Hounsfield Number
(HN)
• Water—Zero HN
• Air—Minus 1,000
• Bone—Plus 1,000
123. Doppler effect is a change in the perceived frequency
of sound emitted by a moving source. So it
measures blood flow.
Spectral Doppler wave form and ultrasound image are
combined in Duplex scanning.
Uses
To study cardiovascular system.
To study vascularity of tumours.
To study blood flow and velocity in arterial diseases
124. • Produces clear tomograms in any plane
without superimposition
• Particularly good for soft tissue lesions.
• Better than CT
• No X-ray dose
• Clear definition of bones and teeth
125. It is a non-invasive diagnostic method to
assess the biochemical and physiological
status of a tissue.
It is used in complimentary with CT scan and
MRI.
Short-life radioactive isotope used to identify
biochemical activity, usually glycolysis, to
identify putative tumor size, location or
metastasis
Good for identifying unsuspected
metastases
Helps identify neoplasms when post-surgical
artifact or inflammation obscure CT or MRI
Also available as a combined PET-CT scan
126. Endoscopy is typically performed with flexible fibre-optic
endoscopes, under local analgesia, sometimes with
conscious sedation or general anaesthesia. Relevant
endoscopic procedures
include:
■Nasendoscopy
■Oesophagoscopy
■Bronchoscopy
■Panendoscopy usually refers to triple endoscopy
(nasendoscopy, oesophagoscopy and bronchoscopy)
■Gastroscopy (the oesophagus, stomach and duodenum)
■Sialoendoscopy
■Colonoscopy
127. FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
This indicates that a definitive diagnosis has been
made on the basis of all necessary observations and
laboratory investigations
129. PROGNOSIS
The prognosis is the prediction of the probable course,
duration, and outcome of a disease based on a general
knowledge of the pathogenesis of the disease and the
presence of risk factors for the disease. The prognosis
is evaluated and informed to the patient.
130
130. Comprehensive & valuable write–up of case history
elicits good basic Knowledge of oral diseases so that
the interviewer is able to trace out leads given by
patient during interview. Thereby case history forms
the basis of diagnosis & all the treatment of any
condition. There is no substitute for a good case
history , aiding at correct diagnosis & appropriate
treatment modalities. Thus careful attention paid to a
tactful case undue timewith no
skillful management of
spent
any

oral
history recording
contribute to a
condition.
