Common factors:
1. Margins of the restoration
2. Contour and open contact
3. Restorative material
4. Design of the removable partial denture
5. Restorative dentistry procedure
6. Malocclusion
7. Orthodontic therapy
8. Extraction of impacted third molar
9. Habits and self-inflicted injuries
10. Radiation therapy
3. Definition
Inadequate dental procedures that
contribute to the deterioration of the
periodontal tissues are referred to as
iatrogenic factors
4. 1. Margins
of the
restoration
I. Overhanging restoration
II. Location of the margin
III. Marginal roughness
6. Overhanging
margins
1) Change the ecologic
balance of the gingival
sulcus to an area that
favors the growth of
disease-associated
organisms (predominately
gram negative anaerobic
species) at the expense of
the health associated
organisms (predominately
gram-positive facultative
species)
7. B) Location of the gingival
margin
Subgingival
margins
Equigingival
margins
Supragingiv
al margins
Severe
gingivitis
and deep
pockets
Less
severe
gingivitis
Normal as
in natural
teeth
8. C) Marginal Roughness
Sources of marginal roughness include
i. Grooves and
scratches in the
surface of even
a carefully
polished
restoration ex:
porcelain or
gold restoratian
9. c) Marginal Roughness
Sources of marginal roughness include
ii. Inadequate marginal fit of the
restoration
*subgingival margins typically shows a gap of
20-40 um between the margin of the
restoration and the unprepared tooth surface
that favors bacterial plaque colonization
10. C) Marginal Roughness
Sources of marginal roughness include:
iii. The gap that exposes the rough prepared
tooth structure following the dissolution of
the luting cement at the restoration margins

cervical margin of a 5-year old
porcelain veneer (P) showing a
small marginal defect and a border

(G, gingiva; C, luting composite)
11.
12. 2.
Contour
and
Open
Contacts
I. Overcontoured Crowns
Buccal and lingual contours
Occlusal contours
II. Inadequate interproximal embrasure
13. I. Overcontoured Crowns
Overcontoured crowns and
restorations tend to accumulate plaque
and possibly prevent the self-cleaning
mechanisms of the adjacent cheek,
lips, and tongue
14. a) Buccal and Lingual
Contours
Overcontoured
Undercontoured
Prevent self
cleansing
mechanism of the
cheeks, lips and
tongue
Does not have that
much destructive
effect
15. But under contoured restorations with
absent or shallow buccal deflection ridge
are said to cause gingival trauma due to
injury by rough food
16.
17. b) Occlusal Contours
Established by marginal ridges
and related developmental
grooves.
Normally they deflect food away
from the inter proximal spaces
18. Occlusal Contours
Inappropriate occlusal contours leads to
Food impaction
Plaque retention
Food impaction is defined as the forceful wedging
of the food into the periodontium by occlusal forces
Cusps that tend to forcibly wedge food into
interproximal embrasures are known as plunger
cusps.
19. Occlusal Contours
Factors leading to food impaction made
by Hirschfeld:
Uneven occlusal wear.
Open contact area as a result of the
loss of proximal support or from
extrusion
Congenital morphologic
abnormalities
Improperly constructed restorations
23. Restorative materials are not in
themselves injurious to the periodontal
tissues. One exception to this may be
self-curing acrylics
• Plaque retention capacity of different
restorative materials is different
but yet can be controlled if the
restoration was well polished and was
accessibile to oral hygiene measures
24. The undersurface
of pontics in fixed
bridges should
barely touch the
mucosa.
Access for oral
hygiene is
inhibited with
excessive pontic
to tissue contact.
27. Partial dentures that are worn during
both night and day induce more
plaque formation than those worn
only during the daytime
The presence of removable partial
dentures induces both quantitative
and qualitative changes in dental
plaque promoting the emergence of
spirochetal microorganisms
28. Spirochetes are gram-negative bacteria that are
long, thin and spiral-shaped. some of them are
pathogenic to humans.
There is one species of spirochete that is part of the
natural environment of the human mouth called
Treponema denticola.
Although T. denticola is typically not harmful,but
under certain conditions , it may play a role in the
progression of periodontal disease
It is one of the red complex pathogens .
30. The use of rubber dam clamps,
matrix bands, and burs in such a
manner as to lacerate the gingiva
results in varying degrees of
mechanical trauma producing
transient injuries that generally
undergo repair
31. Forceful packing of a gingival retraction
cord into the sulcus to prepare subgingival
margins on a tooth or for the purpose of
obtaining an impression may
mechanically injure the periodontium and
leave behind impacted debris capable of
causing a foreign body reaction.
33. Irregular alignment of
teeth results in more
difficult plaque control
Several authers
found a positive
correlation between
crowding &
periodontal disease
but others didn’t find
any correlation.
34. Occlusal Disharmonies
Restorations that doesn’t conform to the
occlusal pattern of the dentition may cause
injury to the supporting periodontal tissues
(traumatic occlusion – T.F.O.)
Histological features of the periodontium of atooth
subjected to T.F.O. :
widened PDL space,
Reduction in the number of collagen
content in oblique and horizontal fibers
increase in vascularity and leukocyte
infiltration,
increase in the number of osteoclasts on
bordering alveolar bone.
35. Failure to replace posterior teeth
After the extraction
of mandibular 1st
molar with the
failure to replace :
1) the initial change
is a mesial drifting
and tilting of the
mandibular second
and third molars
2) extrusion of the
maxillary first molar
36. Failure to replace posterior teeth
3) As the mandibular second molar tips
mesially, its distal cusps extrude and act as
plunger
4) The distal cusps of the mandibular second
molar wedge between the maxillary first and
second molars and open the contact by
deflecting the maxillary second molar
distally.
40. ii. Modifying the gingival
ecosystem resulting in
gingivitis
An increase in
Prevotella Odontolyticus
Prevotella Intermedia
Actinomyces Odontolyticus
Aggregatibacter
actinomycetemcomitans
*With the decrease in
facaulitative microorganisms
41. II. direct effect
i. Creating excessive and/or
unfavourable forces on teeth and
supporting structures
Excessive force produce:
necrosis of PDL and adjacent alveolar bone
increase the risk of apical root resorption
Risk factors for root resorption include :
magnitude of force ,duration of treatment ,continous
versus intermittent force .
Direction of tooth movement ??????
42. ii. Orthodontic bands placed on
newly erupted permanents with still
attached junctional epithelium on
enamel will result in apical
migration & proliferation of the
junctional epithelium and an
increased incidence of gingival
recession
43. The mean alveolar bone loss for
adolescents who under went 2 years of
orthodontic treatment ranges from 0.1- 0.5
mm (this is found to be of little significance)
as that also noted for the control groups
The degree of bone loss during adult
orthodontic care may be higher than that
observed in adolescents,
especially if
the periodontal condition is not treated
before initiating orthodontic therapy.
44. III. Other effects
($) Surgical exposure of impacted
teeth and orthodontic-assisted
eruption has the potential to
compromise the periodontal
attachment on adjacent teeth .
However , those teeth have more
than 9o% of their attachment
remains intact
45. ($) It has been reported that the dentoalveolar
gingival fibers that
are located within the marginal and attached
gingiva are stretched
when teeth are rotated during orthodontic therapy
Surgical removal of these gingival
fibers in combination with a brief
period of retention
may reduce the incidence of relapse
after orthodontic treatment intended
to realign rotated teeth
47. Extraction of impacted third molars
often results in
1) the creation of vertical defects distal
to the second molars
However this iatrogenic effect is
unrelated to flap design
*But it’s related to presence of plaque ,
bleeding on probing , pathologically widened
follicle , inclination of third molar , root
resorption of 2nd molar
* it appears to occur more often when third
molars are extracted in individuals older than
25 years.
48. 2) Another consequence of removal
of third molars include permanent
paresthesia (numbness of the lip,
tongue, and cheek), d.t injury of the
lingual nerve passing distal to third
mandibular molar
50. I. Tooth brush trauma
1. Acute
Erosions & diffuse erythema
Ulcers
Acute gingival abscess d.t.
forcefully embeded tooth
brush bristle
history : Signs of acute gingival
abrasion are frequently noted when the
patient first uses a new brush
2. Chronic
Buccal and lingual recession
and attachment loss
Cervical abrasion
51. II . Chemical Injury
1) allergic inflammatory states, the gingival
changes range from simple erythema to
painful vesicle formation and ulceration.
E.x. mouthwashes, dentifrices, or denture
materials are often explain
2) nonspecific injurious effect of chemicals
on the gingival tissues.
* topical application of
corrosive drugs such as aspirin , phenol or
silver nitrate
52. III. Tobacco use
It results in :
1) oral leukoplakia
2) Increased incidence of gingival recession,
3) cervical root abrasion, and root caries
4) high incidence of severe periodontitis
54. Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy has cytotoxic effects on both
normal and malignant cells
The typical total dose of radiation for head and
neck tumors is in the range of 5000 to 8000
centiGrays (cGy = 1rad)
The total dose of radiation is given in partial
incremental doses (Fractionation where the typical
dose administrated is in the range of 100 to 1000
cGys per week).
this helps to minimize the adverse effects of the
radiation while maximizing the death rate of the
tumor cells.
55. Radiation therapy induces
Obliterative Endarteritis resulting in:
i. Soft tissue ischemia and fibrosis
ii. Hypo vascular and hypoxic bone
iii. Osteoradionecrosis
iv. Dermatitis and mucositis
v. muscle fibrosis and trismus (restricting
access to oral cavity)
vi. Xerostomia (greater plaque accumulation)
vii. Caries
viii. periodontal attachment loss and teeth loss
ix. Greater risk to periodontal infections
56. How to prevent the
complications of radiotherapy?
1. The severity of the
mucositis can be reduced by
asking the patient to avoid
secondary sources of
irritation to the mucous
membrane, such as smoking,
alcohol, and spicy foods.
57. 2. Use of a chlorhexidine
digluconate mouthrinse may help
reduce the mucositis. However,
chlorhexidine mouthrinses having
a high alcohol content that may
act as an astringent, which
dehydrates the mucosa, thereby
intensifying the pain.
58. 3. Fluoride application, effective oral hygiene
measures and frequent dental
examination.
4. Consult the oncologist before any surgical
or periodontal procedure to decrease
incidence of osteoradionecrosis
5. Prophylactic antibiotics to avoid
osteomyilitis
6. Restricted use of local anesthetic with
vasoconstrictor.
7. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for treatment
of osteoradionecrosis
61. Nd:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium
aluminum garnet; Nd:Y3Al5O12)
1. Pitting and crater formation in
cementum
2. Exposure of dentinal tubules,
and cementum “peeling”
3. A reduced attachment of
fibroblasts to Nd:YAG laser
treated cementum was
observed
62. In conclusion the use of the
Nd:YAG laser in periodontal
treatment is restricted to the area
of the soft tissue management. No
safe removal of calculus is possible
using a Nd:YAG laser.
64. After irradiation with the Er:YAG laser
enamel prisms at the rugged surface are
clearly visible, the border between lased
and non lased surface can be seen
65. Calculus is removed from cementum
using an Er:YAG laser, the irradiated
track is visible, the upper layer of
cementum
is removed, too

Editor's Notes
Subgingival restorations promote the accumulation of plaque
Direct trauma on the teeth
Must add proper oral hygiene instructions
First talk about bone remodelling
In newly erupted teeth the attachment is still on enamel. Placement of bands subgingival leads to recession
presence of visible plaque, bleeding on probing, root resorption in the contact area between second and third molars, presence of a pathologically widened follicle, inclination of the third molar, and close proximity of the third molar to the second molar
The use of effective oral hygiene, professional dental prophylactic cleanings, fluoride applications, and frequent dental examinations are essential to control caries and periodontal disease.
