Kyle is a transgender patient who prefers male pronouns. He presents to the office for his 3-month recall appointment. His health history is unchanged with a history of current renal (kidney) disease that he has been dialysis treatment for since earlier this year and a history of breast cancer, in remission since 2018.  His dental history includes dry mouth and full-mouth Scaling and Root Planing (SRP) in 2014. Today’s periodontal charting is largely unchanged to compared to past visits, his periodontal condition is stable with very little bleeding and generalized 4mm pocketing in the posterior sextants. When visiting family out of state last month he broke a tooth and had an emergency root canal at a local office. Use this information to answer the following questions. QUESTION: What is the most appropriate explanation for the coronal polishing when the patient ask why it is done?  

Your first patient in the spring has hypothroid and hypertension, both controlled with medications.  The vitals for today are 114/64, pulse 80 and respirations 14.  They haven’t had a dental appointment in a year and had bitewings taken then.  Your head and neck findings indicate a few abnormalities to chart and their periodontal assessments indicates that they have localized recession and generalized 1-3mm probe depths.  They indicate that they clench at night and you find that some of the anterior teeth move less than 1mm when you test mobility using 2 blunt ends of instruments. Since they are low risk for caries and have no dental concerns, you determine that they do not need new radiographs. Use this information to answer the following questions. QUESTION: What would you note for these two sores on the labial mucosa and vestibule (whitish/yellow with red ring)?  

Your patient presents for a prophy today after being away from the dental office for over five years. After updating the medical history, you add that the patient has been diagnosed with type II diabetes mellitus and went to the hospital four months ago for a broken wrist after falling, and has developed an allergy to penicillin. They had an artificial heart valve placed in 2020, and they report taking taking Warfarin, Metformin and a multivitamin daily. Upon completing the risk assessments and periodontal charting, you note that they are at high risk for caries and periodontal disease and have generalized 3-6mm and localized 7 and 8mm probe depths with generalized recession. Based off of this information, answer the following questions. QUESTION: What antibiotic pre-medication regimen does this patient require?  

What is the oxidation number of iodine on iodite (IO2-)? 

Your patient hasn’t been to the dentist in 5 years and has 3-6mm probe depths and a localized 8mm probe depth at an implant. On the full mouth series of radiographs, you see generalized radiographic calculus and 2 implants, one with significant bone loss. The dental hygiene diagnosis is moderate periodontal disease,  ADA III with a .3 level of calculus, and through a periodontal consult with the periodontist at the last appointment the patient is recommended to have 4 quadrants of scaling and root planing and a consultation in the graduate periodontal clinic regarding the implant.  You and a senior student are paired to begin their first appointment of SPR treatment today.  The senior student checks out a variety of ultrasonic inserts and instruments and you are helping to set up.  Use this information to answer the following questions. QUESTION: What insert and power level should be used first for this patient?

Your 72 year old, diabetic patient, with no known allergies, presents for her appointment and it has been a little over a year since you have seen her last. While going through her medical history you find out she had a joint replacement 9 months ago. You find out she didn’t take a pre-medication and and send her home after consulting with her surgeon. Before dismissing her, you complete the head exam and update the risk assessments. You notice a 5×5 mm red, raised lesion on her lower lip that she says she got from biting really hard a few days ago. She returns the next day, she took her pre-med and now you can begin the rest of your assessments. Vitals: BP-120/78, pulse 60, respirations 70.  During assessments she has generalized 5-6 mm probing depths in her posterior teeth and you determine she has a calculus level of .3. She will need full mouth SRP. You will begin the SRP on the maxillary right quadrant at the next appointment and ask her to check her glucose at the beginning of the next appointment.  QUESTION: Which insert would be recommended to start with if the patient has heavy stain and ledges of surpragingival calculus?
