The document defines and classifies periodontal pockets. Key points:
- Periodontal pockets are pathologically deepened gingival sulci with destruction of supporting tissues.
- They are classified as suprabony, infrabony, or furcation pockets based on their location relative to alveolar bone.
- Periodontal pockets contain plaque, microorganisms, inflammatory cells and products that drive the pathogenesis of periodontitis through host immune response and tissue destruction.
- Probing depth measures pocket depth while attachment loss measures loss of supporting tissues from their original position. Pocket depth does not always correlate with severity of bone loss.
Phase I periodontal therapy is the first in the chronologic sequence of procedures that constitute periodontal treatment. It is also referred to as cause related therapy or non-surgical periodontal therapy.
Definition of periodontal pocket, classification, Histopathology of periodontal pocket, microflora involved, pathogenesis, periodontal pocket as a healing lesion, microtopography of root surface, treatment of periodontal pocket
In periodontology, classifications are widely used to categorize defects due to periodontitis according to their etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.
Several classifications have been proposed in the literature in order to facilitate the diagnosis of gingival recessions.

The periodontal examination should be systematic, starting in the molar region in either maxilla or mandible and proceeding around the arch. It is important to detect the earliest signs of gingival and periodontal disease.
Furcation involvement is a common sequela of severe chronic periodontal disease. Its effective management has a profound influence on the outcome of periodontal therapy.
Various Plaque Hypothesis are proposed to prove how plaque becomes pathogenic and cause periodontitis. Helpful in understanding pathogenesis of periodontitis especially how Gingivitis change to Periodontitis. All the details have been added and made in easy language to understand.
Useful for BDS and MDS students
ROS is a substractive method of having positive bone architecture. it includes osteotomy and ostectomy procedures. osteotomy is to remove non supporting bone and ostectomy is to remove supporting bone for having positive bony architecture. there is definitive osseous surgery and compromise osseous surgery. transgingival probing is a method of determining osseous topography. various hand and rotary instruments are use for this procedure.

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.

most often occur interproximally
but may be located on the facial or
the lingual tooth surfaces.
2.Vertical (angular) pattern of bone
destruction.
3.Pdl fibers follow angular pattern.
4. Transeptal fibers are arranged
obliquely.
8. 2. According to the number of surfaces
involved
Simple: Pocket involving one tooth surface
Compound: Pockets involving more than one tooth surface
Complex: (spiral ) originating on one tooth surface and
twisting around the tooth to involve one or more additional
surfaces
This type of pockets is most common in furcation areas
9.
10. Symptoms
Localized Pain and sometimes radiating
deep into bone.
Sensitivity to hot and cold
Food impaction
Foul taste in localized areas
11. CLINICALFEATURES
1.Various degrees of bluish red
discoloration.
-Flaccidity.
-Smoothshiny surface.
-Pitting on pressure.
2.Gingival wall may be pink and firm.
3.Bleeding on probing.
4.Onprobing inner aspectof wall is
generallypainful.
5.Pus may be expressedon applying

HISTOPATHOLOGICFEATURES
1.Circulatory stagnation.
-Destruction of gingival fibers.
-Atrophyof epithelium.
-Edema
2.Fibrotic changes .
3.Increasedvascularity, thinning and
degenerationof epithelium.
4.Ulcerationof inner aspect of pocket

14. First : pocket content
1. Microorganisms and their products (enzymes, endotoxins,
and other metabolic products),
2. Gingival fluid
3. Food remnants
4. Salivary mucin
5. Desquamated epithelial cells, and leukocytes.
6. Plaque-coveredcalculus usually projects from the tooth
surface
7. Purulentexudate
15. Significance of Pus formation
Pus is a common feature of periodontal
disease, but it is only a SECONDARY
SIGN
It is NOT AN INDICATION OF THE
DEPTH of the pocket or the severity of
the destruction of the supporting tissues
16. Second: soft tissue wall
Inflammatory changes in the connective tissue wall :
= Destruction of collagen fibers just apical to the junction
epithelium , as this area becomes occupied by inflammatory
cells and edema
=As a consequence of the loss of collagen, the apical cells of
the junctional epithelium proliferate along the root,
extending fingerlike projection two or three cells in thickness
= PMNLs invade the coronal end of the junctional epithelium
When the volume of PMNLs reach 60% of the junctional
epithelium, the tissues looses cohesiveness and detach from
the tooth structure
17. Collagen loss is caused by 2 mecahnisms
PMNLs and
macrophages
secrete collagenase
and other lysosymes
extracelluaraly and
destroy collagen
fibers in gingival CT
(matrix
metalloproteinases)
Fibroblast
phagocytize fibers
by extending
cytoplasmic process
to the ligament
cementum interface
and degrade the
collagen fibers in
the cementum
matrix
18. Collagen loss is followed by Degeneration of the
junctional epithelium and
pocket formation
• The coronal portion
of the junctional epithelium
detaches from the root as the
apical portions migrates
• The apical cells
of the junctional epithelium
proliferate along the root
extending fingerlike projections
19. Migration of the junctional
epithelium requires healthy, viable
cells
Therefore, marked degeneration or
necrosis of the junctional
epithelium retards rather than
accelerates pocket formation
20. Third : Root surface wall
• Collagen fibers embedded in the cementum
(Sharpey’s Fibers) are destroyed
• Cementum becomes exposed to the oral cavity
• Bacterial penetration in to cementum leads to
breakdown of the cementum surface and necrotic
cementum results that will be separated from
tooth by masses of bacteria.
21. • In the course of treatment,
these necrotic areas are
removed by root planing
until a hard smooth surface
is reached.
• Cementum is very thin in
the cervical areas, and
scaling and root planing
often removes it entirely,
exposing the underlying
dentin.
• Sensitivity to cold may
result until secondary
dentin is formed by the
pulp tissue
22. Surface Morphology of Pocket Walls
Five zones can be seen
the base of the pocket
1. Cementum covered by
calculus.
2. Attached plaque
3. Zone of unattached
plaque.
4. Zone where the junction
epithelium is attached to
the tooth.
5. The zone of semi
destroyed C.T. fibers.
(3, 4, 5 called plaque free
zone)
23.
24. -The initial lesion in the development of periodontitis is the
inflammation of the gingiva in response to a bacterial
challenge.
-Changes involved in the transition from the normal
gingival sulcus to the pathologic periodontal pocket
are associated with different proportions of bacterial cells
in dental plaque.
-Healthy gingiva is associated with few microorganisms,
mostly coccoid cells and straight rods.
While Diseased gingiva is associated with increased numbers
of spirochetes and motile rods
25. Early concepts :
assumed that after the initial bacterial attack,
periodontal tissue destruction continued to be linked
to bacterial action.
More recently:
it was established that the host’s
immunoinflammatory response to the initial and
persistent bacterial attack unleashes mechanisms
that lead to collagen and bone destruction.
26. Genetics and Interventional
studies implicating complement
C3 as a major target for the
treatment of periodontitis
J Immunol. 2014 Jun 15;192(12):6020-7. doi:
10.4049/jimmunol.1400569. Epub 2014 May 7.
27. Chronic periodontitis leads to inflammatory
destruction of tooth-supporting tissues
C3 complement is a point of convergence of
complement activation mechanisms,
but its involvement in periodontitis was not
previously addressed.
28. We investigated this question using two animal species
models, namely,
* C3-deficient or wild-type mice
with the local application of C3 complement
In mice, C3 was required for maximal periodontal inflammation
and bone loss.
* nonhuman primates (NHPs)
locally treated with a potent C3 inhibitor.
local treatment of NHPs with C3 inhibitor inhibited ligature-
induced periodontal inflammation and bone loss, together with
lower gingival crevicular fluid levels of proinflammatory
mediators (e.g., IL-17 and RANKL) as compared with control
treatment.
29. Conclusion
This is the first time to prove that:
complement inhibition inhibit inflammatory
processes that lead to bone loss.
These data strongly support the feasibility of
C3-targeted intervention for the treatment of
human periodontitis.
30. Overexpression and Potential
Regulatory Role of IL-17F in
Pathogenesis of Chronic
Periodontitis.
Inflammation 2014 Nov 11. Epub 2014 Nov 11

31. 1) Periodontal local tissues were obtained from chronic
periodontitis (CP) and healthy controls (HC) for real-time
PCR (RT-PCR) detection with IL-17F and IL-17A messenger
RNA (mRNA).
2) Primary human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) were
derived from patients receiving crown-lengthening
procedures.
Elevated levels of IL-17F and IL-17A mRNA in CP gingival
tissues compared with HC group .
There is a correlation between IL-17F and IL-17A mRNA
in CP group with the probing depth
32. 3) IL-17F and IL-17A were used to stimulate the HGF
cells.
4) Production of pro-inflammatory cytokines induced
by IL-17F and IL-17A was detected by RT-PCR.
Both IL-17F and IL-17A could promote the
inflammatory cytokines IL-6, CXCL8, and CCL20
production
This study indicates that IL-17F may be involved in
pathogenesis of periodontitis like IL-17A.
The role of IL-17F in disease pathogenesis needs to be
further investigated
34. Periodontal pockets go through periods of
exacerbation and quiescence
Periods o f quiescence
• Reduced inflammatory
response
• little or no loss of bone and
connective tissue
attachment
Period o f exacerbation
• Bone and connective tissue
attachment are lost and the
pocket deepens
• Bleeding, either
spontaneously or with
probing
• Greater amounts of
gingival exudate
37. The condition of the soft tissue wall of
the periodontal pocket result from the
destructive& constructivetissue
changes.
The balance between the destructive &
constructive changes determines the
clinical features ;
(color ,consistency ,surface texture of the
pocket wall.)
38. Thus pocket wall can be either
Soft & friable pocket wall
Fibrotic pocket wall
39.
40. Probing depth:
It ‘s the distance between the point of resistance
under light pressure at the base of the pocket and
the crest of the gingival margin
Attachment loss:
It ‘s the distance between the point of resistance
under light pressure at the base of the pocket and
the cementoenamel junction
41. Severity of bone loss is generally, but not always,
correlated with pocket depth
Extensive attachment loss & bone loss may be
accompanied with shallow pockets in case of
gingival recession
And slight bone loss can occur with deep
pockets
42. Pocket Probing
The two different pocket depths
are:
Biologic or histologic depth
Clinical or probing depth
43. Biological Depth -Vs -Clinical Depth
• The distance between the
gingival margin and the
base of the pocket can be
measured only in carefully
prepared histologic
sections.
The distance to which the
probe penetrates into the
pocket clinically
clinical depth
Histological depth
46. The only accurate method of
detecting and measuring periodontal
pockets is careful exploration with a
periodontal probe
47. Limitations of radiograph
• The periodontal pocket is a soft tissue change.
• Radiographs indicate areas of bone loss where
pockets may be suspected
• They do not show pocket presence or depth,
and consequently they show no difference
before or after pocket elimination unless bone
has been modified.
48. Gutta Percha points or
Calibrated Silver points can
be used with radiograph to
assist in determining the level
of attachment of periodontal
pocket.
49.
50. Management of periodontal pockets include
I) Non surgical management ; Including:
a) phase I therapy
b) local drug delivery
c) systemic antimicrobials
II) Surgical management ; including :
a) resective surgeries
- gingival currettage
- gingivectomy
- flap operation
b) regenerative surgeries.
51. Randomized Controlled Trial Assessing
Efficacy and Safety of Glycine Powder
Air Polishing in Moderate-to-Deep
Periodontal Pockets
This study assesses efficacy and safety of
subgingivally applied glycine powder air polishing
(SubGPAP) in moderate-to-deep periodontal pockets
Thomas F. Flemmig,* Daniyel Arushanov,* Diane Daubert,* Marilynn Rothen,†
Gregory Mueller,†and Brian G. Leroux Submitted June 21, 2011.
52. Subgingival debridement was performed in deep periodontal pockets by SubGPAP
using a thin nozzle inserted into the periodontal pocket (A)
in shallow periodontal sites by SupraGPAP using a conventional hand piece aimed
directly into the periodontal pocket (B).
Supragingival biofilm and stain were removed in all sites by SupraGPAP directed
perpendicular to the tooth surface (C).
53. SubGPAP resulted in significantly lower total viable
bacterial counts (as it is more efficacious in removing
subgingival biofilm) in moderate-to-deep pockets
when compared to SRP .
full-mouth GPAP may result in a beneficial shift of the
oral microbiota and appears to be well tolerated
There were no adverse events related to full-mouth
GPAP.
54. Effect of tetracycline HCl in
the treatment of chronic
periodontitis - A clinical
study.
Sinha S1, Kumar S2, Dagli N3, Dagli RJ4.
J Int Soc Prev Community Dent. 2014 Sep;4(3)
55. This study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the
adjunctive use of tetracycline fibers (Periodontal Plus
AB(®)) as a local drug delivery with scaling and root
planing,
as compared with the results of one episode of
scaling and root planing for the treatment of chronic
periodontitis.
56. RESULTS:
Significant improvement was found in all the
variables, including reduction in p.d and gain in C.A.L,
in both test and control groups in 3 months
But Mean reduction in P.D and gain in C.A.L were
more in test than in control group.
CONCLUSION:
Tetracycline fiber therapy along with scaling and root
planing improves the healing outcome, namely,
reduction in pocket depth and gain in clinical
attachment level, when compared to scaling and root
planing alone.
57. In the treatment of periodontal infections
The local application of antibiotics in periodontal pockets
may be a promising approach to achieve
sustained/controlled drug release, high antimicrobial
activity and low systemic side effects.
the effectiveness of conventional nonsurgical treatment is
limited by lack of accessibility to bacteria in deeper
periodontal pockets.
Development of local drug delivery systems provides an
answer.
58. Novel local drug delivery agents used for the
treatment of periodontal diseases are alendronate
and simvastatin delivered as gels.
Alendronate is a novel bisphosphonate is a very
potent inhibitor of bone resorption.
The net effect of alendronate on bone formation
might be explained by its inhibition of osteoclasts,
thus affecting bone maturation and remodeling.
59. Once taken up by bone, alendronate has a prolonged skeletal
retention (half-life up to several years)
Alendronate gel has been found to increase bone formation on
local delivery into the periodontal pocket.
In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic
periodontitis, local delivery of 1% alendronate gel into
periodontal pockets resulted in:
a significant increase in the probing depth (p.d)reduction,
clinical attachment level (A.L)gain, and improved bone fill
compared to placebo gel as an adjunct to scaling and root
planning

60. Simvastatin (SMV) is a specific competitive inhibitor
of 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme-A
reductase.
Pardeep et al [35] showed :
a greater decrease in gingival index and probing
depth and a clinical attachment level gain at sites
treated with scaling and root planing plus locally
delivered SMV gel in patients with chronic
periodontitis.

62. Simvastatin has been shown to stimulate new
bone growth on rat mandibles, but much of the bone is
lost over time
The purpose of this study:
is to evaluate the impactof a systemically applied anti
resorptive agent (alendronate) on simvastatin-induced
bone formation
Conclusion:
The use of a short course of systemic ALN during the
healing period after bone anabolic SIM injections has
the potential to enhance local bone augmentation.
63. Boric acid irrigation as an adjunct
to mechanical periodontal therapy
in patients with chronic
periodontitis: a randomized clinical
trial

10.1902/jop.2012.120467. Epub 2012 Nov 3.
64. The purpose of this clinical trial was to evaluate the effects
of boric acid irrigation as an adjunct to SRP on clinical and
microbiologic parameters and compare this method with
chlorhexidine irrigation and SRP alone in patients with
chronic periodontitis (CP)
boric acid could be an alternative to chlorhexidine,
and it might be more favorable because boric acid
was superior in whole-mouth BOP as well as PD and
CAL reduction for moderate pockets.
65. Photo disinfection of Periodontal
Pockets
Written by Véronique Benhamou, BSc, DDS
March 2009
66. Photodisinfection of Periodontal
Pockets
• Methylene blue dye is gently injected into the
periodontal pocket
The dye binds to the Peptidoglycan layer on the cell
walls of both gram-negative and gram-positive
bacteria
67. Because of a
difference in
thickness of the
peptidoglycan layer in
their cell walls,
GRAM-NEGATIVE
Bacteria take up the
methylene blue stain
FASTER.
68. • Meanwhile, the Periowave nonthermal diode laser
produces photons whose frequency matches that of the
molecule of the methylene blue dye.
• When the photons hit the dye molecules, they initiate the
photodynamic chain of events.
• The oxygen molecules surrounding the dye are caused to
lose an electron, and thus become free radicals.
• The free oxygen radicals are toxic to the bacterial cell
walls and disrupt them, leading to the destruction of the
bacteria.
69. Photodisinfection treatment is not
meant to replace traditional
mechanical SRP therapy but rather
to complement it.
Photodisinfection may also be used during
periodontal surgery to “disinfect” areas that
may be difficult to instrument (such as
furcations), particularly prior to regenerative
procedures
74. The use of a membrane:
1) maintaining space for clot stabilization.
2) Is for the prevention of epithelial migration along the
cemental wall of the pocket thus temporarily separating
them from the gingival epithelium and connective tissue
Excluding the epithelium and the gingival connective
tissue from the root surface during the postsurgical
healing phase not only prevents epithelial migration into
the wound but also favors repopulation of the area by
cells from the periodontal ligament and the bone
75. Bone graft materials are evaluated based on their
osteogenic,
osteoinductive, or osteoconductive potential.
Osteogenesis
refers to the formation of new bone by cells contained
in the graft.
Osteoinduction
is a chemical process by which molecules contained in
the graft (e.g., bone morphogenetic proteins) convert
the neighboring cells into osteoblasts, which in turn
form bone.
Osteoconduction
is a physical effect by which the matrix of the graft
forms a scaffold that favors outside cells to
penetratethe graft and form new bone

79. Conclusion
The scanning electron microscopy and histologic
findings demonstrated the feasibility & effectivity of
ablating pocket epithelium with an Nd:YAG laser
irradiation

81. Conclusions
This study supports the hypothesis that:
manual or ultrasonic instrumentation alone is not
able to expose the sound dentin matrix,
whereas a subsequent acidic conditioning exposes collagen
fibrils and associated proteoglycans.
The immunohistochemical technique revealed that
despite their acidity, both citric acid and EDTA were
able to preserve the structural and biochemical
properties of the exposed dentin matrix
82. Results
- Use of 10% citric acid revealed intense labeling
“marking” for collagen fibrils and proteoglycans
- lower labeling was found after EDTA conditioning.
- unetched specimens showed residual smear layer
on the dentin surface resulting in no evident surface
labeling

Periodontal regeneration of damaged tissue is the
main goal of the periodontal treatment
This review provides an overview of adult human
stem cells and their potential use in periodontal
regeneration
84. One approach to periodontal regeneration involves
incorporation of progenitor cells in a periodontal
defect .
Autologous bone marrow, mesenchymal and
adipose-derived stem cells do regenerate alveolar
bone and periodontal ligament-like structures after
transplantation
85. An ideal source may be human adult dermal
fibroblasts reprogrammed to pluripotency and
to production of enough cells for regenerative
periodontal therapy
Enhanced stem cells techniques will be a way
to achieve the desired periodontal
regeneration
The most severe degenerative changes in periodontal tissues occur adjacent to the tooth surface and subgingival plaque. In some cases, inflammation and ulceration on the inside of the pocket are walled off by fibrous tissue on the outer aspect. Outwardly the pocket appears pink and fibrotic, despite the inflammatory changes occurring within.
Bone fillers : ex; tricalcium phosphate
doesn’t resorb nor does it allow new bone formation but it prevents further bone resorption
