A 64-year-old female presented with a small whitish-pink lesion on her pterygomandibular fold. She was unaware of the lesion and experienced no symptoms. Based on the clinical appearance and location near a recent dental restoration, the supervising dentist believed it was likely an irritation fibroma. However, a definitive diagnosis would require an excisional biopsy for microscopic examination. The lesion was small at 3x3x1mm with a sessile base, characteristics consistent with an irritation fibroma. It was determined to be non-concerning and would be monitored without biopsy due to the patient's good health and lack of symptoms.
In Oral Pathology, students were tasked with finding an oral lesion in the clinic and presenting their findings to the class. I found an interesting lesion that was tricky to diagnose. My final diagnosis is based on clinical findings only, as no biopsy was performed.

In this brief lecture I will discuss most common endodontic emergencies that occur while practicing endodontics. The lecture is directed to the mind of undergraduate level.
I hope you enjoy it.
For DH Theory IV, students paired up to present over topics they still wanted to review before taking their boards exam. My partner and I discussed toothbrushing methods, instruments, fluoride doses, and the lymphatic system.
For Dental Hygiene Theory IV, students had to create a virtual table clinic about a trending or controversial topic in dentistry. I chose to present over the different impression methods, digital and traditional. I compared the two methods to see which type of impression provided the best overall patient experience.
A fellow classmate and I volunteered to provide a presentation over oral health and how to take care of dental appliances to CNA’s and LPN’s at a local nursing home. We were able to discuss dental products, nutrition, oral pathology, appliance care, and how oral health can affect overall health. This was a great opportunity, and I enjoyed being able to spread awareness about the importance of oral hygiene.
For Community II, senior students paired up to give a presentation to preschool classes about oral health. Two students made the PowerPoint, and the other eight went from classroom to classroom to present.
For this community assignment, students had to choose a culture in Missouri and discuss how their culture may impact our ability to provide oral health care.
Students taking pharmacology at SFCC were given a case study of a made-up patient to analyze the medications the patient is taking. Students needed to list what questions they would ask their patient regarding their medical history. They also needed to recognize what interactions may occur between the drugs the patient is taking.
For DH Theory III, students must give a presentation on a specific module in the class. The purpose of these presentations is to inform students on how treat patients in a dental setting who may be compromised by a certain medical condition. I was tasked with presenting on sexually transmitted diseases, as well as on chronic kidney disease and dialysis. This is the presentation that I modified on sexually transmitted diseases.

For DH Theory III, students must give a presentation on a specific module in the class. The purpose of these presentations is to inform students on how treat patients in a dental setting who may be compromised by a certain medical condition. I was tasked with presenting on chronic kidney disease and dialysis, as well as on sexually transmitted diseases. This is the presentation that I modified on CKD and dialysis.
In Applied Nutrition, students were assigned with the task of writing a paper about nutritional counseling for a patient with a special condition. I chose to write about a child with type 1 diabetes. This is the PowerPoint presentation that went along with the research paper.
In Oral Pathology, each student was randomly assigned a case study of a patient with an oral lesion. We had to come up with three possible diagnoses for the lesion we were given. From those three diagnoses, we had to determine what the true diagnosis of the lesion was. I will admit that this was a challenging project, but I enjoyed researching different lesions in order to get closer to my final diagnosis.
This assignment for Dental Hygiene Theory I tasked students with researching the dental hygiene field in other countries. I choose to research dental hygiene in Israel, and I was surprised to learn that the Israeli standards of care are quite similar to those in the US.
I read an article about the quality of life of children living with cleft palate and decided to do a presentation for Dental Hygiene Theory I summarizing the article. I thought it was important for our class to know not only what cleft palate is, but also how cleft palate surgery can change a patient's life. With the knowledge provided in this presentation, hygienists can have more empathy for what cleft palate patients go through in their daily lives.
An assignment for DH Theory 1 was to create an annotated bibliography for a research topic of our choice. This project was designed to challenge our critical thinking and decision making skills. I chose to research dental lasers and their effectiveness in the removal of oral lesions. It was interesting to compare different literature on this subject, and I had a lot of fun determining what articles were valid based on the evidence provided.
This case study was part of an assignment for my Introduction to Dental Hygiene Theory class. The patient in this slideshow is not a real person. I had a lot of fun with this assignment and learned so much from it. For example, I learned how to write a dental hygiene diagnosis and a treatment plan.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Pulmonary Thromboembolism - etilogy, types, medical- Surgical and nursing man...VarunMahajani
Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
2. MEDICAL
HISTORY
64 year-old female
Patient is in good health
Medications:
•10mg Atrevastatin
•May cause xerostomia
•Takes for high cholesterol
•40mg Fluoxetine
•May cause xerostomia
•Takes for depression
Vitals:
•Blood Pressure: 130/82
•Pulse: 64 bpm
•Respiration: 14 rpm
•Temperature: 98.1℉
3. DENTAL HISTORY
• Patient receives routine dental cleanings
• This was her first appointment at SFCC
• Recently had a restoration placed on #18
• Brushes teeth 2x daily
• Flosses or uses Waterpik 1x daily
• Uses fluoridated toothpaste and mouth rinse
6. LESION CHARACTERISTICS
• Location: Pterygomandibular fold, distal to #18
• Size: 3x3x1mm
• Shape: Circular
• Base: Sessile
• Color: Whitish pink
• The patient was completely unaware of the lesion and has experienced
no symptoms, such as pain, swelling, or discomfort.
9. LYMPH TISSUE
• The supervising dentist at SFCC believed that the lesion could possibly
be lymph tissue that had come to the surface.
• He was not certain this was the true diagnosis
• Lymph tissue may surface in the mouth as a sign of illness (Ibsen &
Phelan, 2014).
• A referral was written to the patient’s general dentist for closer
inspection and a biopsy if needed.
10. IRRITATION FIBROMA
• An irritation fibroma is a “broad-
based, persistent exophytic lesion
composed of dense, scar like
connective tissue containing few
blood cells” (Ibsen & Phelan, 2014).
• Benign
• Occurs as result of trauma
• Usually a small lesion (less than 1cm)
• Frequently found on buccal mucosa
• Light pink to white in color
• May have sessile or pedunculated base
11. DIAGNOSIS
• Based on the clinical findings, this lesion
is likely an irritation fibroma.
• To confirm this diagnosis, excision and
microscopic examination of the tissue
must be performed (Ibsen & Phelan,
2014).
• Reasons why this is likely an irritation fibroma:
• Caused by trauma
• Patient recently had restoration placed on #18
that could have rubbed/irritated the area
• Small in size/sessile base
• Lesion was 3x3x1mm
• Found on buccal mucosa
• Pterygomandibular fold
• Reasons it is likely not lymph tissue:
• The patient is in good health
RATIONALE
DIAGNOSIS
12. PROGNOSIS
• Both the supervising dentist at SFCC and the patient’s general dentist
believe that this lesion is nothing to worry about.
• A biopsy was not performed due to lack of concern about the lesion and
no patient discomfort.
• The lesion will be monitored and remeasured at each continuing care
appointment.
