Pre-clinical PeriodonticsPeriodontitis/
attachment loss
Periodontitis
Periodontitis is the inflammation of a periodontium
caused by specific microorganisms resulting in: attachment loss: progressive destruction of the PDL
and alveolar bone with pocket formation recession or both
Attachment loss
Pocket formation Bone loss Or both
The periodontal pocket
• In HEALTHY gingiva, the tip of the probe remains within the junctional epithelium.
• The dense network of collagen fibres under the epithelium gives resistance to probing.
• There is no BOP , the gingiva is pushed by side.
The periodontal pocketWhat makes the perio probe stop in healthy gingival tissues?
What makes the probe stop in gingivitis ?
• In gingivitis, the tip of the probe pushes through the junctional epithelium and penetrates the underlying inflamed connective tissue.
• The probe’s advance is stopped by the dense collagen fibres apical to the inflamed region.
• During & after probing, there is bleeding
The periodontal pocket
Periodontal attachment loss?Measured from CEJ to sulcus or base of the pocket.
Pocket depth? Measured from gingival crest (gingival margin) to base of the pocket
Attachment loss
False pockets (by gingival overgrowth) are not attachment loss.
Also called gingival pocket
Attachment loss versus pseudo pocket
bon e Periodontitis, deep pocket (10mm), periodontal attachment loss (10mm); destruction of gingival fibres, alveolar bone & periodontal ligament.
Attachment loss versus true pocket
Periodontal pocket
PD = 8mmPAL = 8mm
PD = 0mmPAL = 8mm
PD = 11mmPAL = 8mm
PD =8mmPAL=8mm
PD =0mmPAL=8mm
PD =11mmPAL=8mm
recession hyperplasia
Attachment loss versus pocket formation
Different pocket depths with the same amount of attachment loss.
The distance between the bottom of the sulcus (arrow) and the CEJ remains the same despite different pocket depths.
Attachment loss versus pocket formation
Same pocket depth with different amounts of attachment loss.
A: Gingival pocket with no recession.B: Periodontal pocket of similar
depth as in A, but with some degree of attachment loss
C: Pocket depth same as in A and B, but with still more attachment loss.
Attachment loss versus pocket formation
A: Gingival pocket: with no recession – pseudo pocket
B: Periodontal pocket: with some degree of attachment loss
Classification of pockets
Types of periodontal pockets
Types of periodontal pockets
Suprabony pocket = supracrestal = supralveolar pocket
Infrabony pocket =subcrestal = intraalveolar pocket
A: simple pocket: one surface is involved B: compound pocket: more than one surface is
involvedC: complex pocket: (also twisted P.):
originate on one surface and twist to involve another surface.
