Introduction
• Periodontal diseases peak their destructive stages in
the middle age , but many of them have their
inception during childhood.
• The early detection and early treatment are
important from a preventive aspect since, the
prevention of most periodontal diseases are
relatively simple and very effective, providing lifetime
benefits.

• The clinical and radiographic images of gingiva
and periodontium in children and adolescent
differ from those seen in adults, owing to the
significant changes taking place during growth
and development.
• The periodontium during childhood and puberty
is in constant state of change owing to the
exfoliation and eruption of teeth.
• This makes a general description of the normal
periodontium difficult because it varies with age
of the patient. (Baer and Benjamin, 1974)

Gingivitis
• Dental plaque induced gingival inflammation is
the most common form of gingivitis.
• It is characterized by inflammation of gingival
tissues without loss of attachment or bone.
• Local factors contributing to gingivitis in
children
• Crowded teeth
• Orthodontic appliances
12
• Gingivitis associated with poor oral hygiene is
usually classified as
• Initial lesion
• Early lesion
• Moderate lesion
• Advanced lesion

Acute gingival diseases
• Primary herpetic gingivostomatitis
• Recurrent aphthous ulcer
• Acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis (vincent
infection)
• Acute candidiasis (thrush, candidosis)
16
Primary herpetic gingivostomatitis
• Caused by Herpes simplex virus type 1
• Age-Children younger than 6 yrs, but also may be
seen in adolescents and adults.
• Primary infection is asymptomatic
• Location- lesions mainly involve hard palate,
attached gingiva and oral mucosa.
• Manifestations include blister outside the lip so
disease commonly called recurrent herpes
labialis.
17
• Characteristic oral finding:
• Diffuse erythmatous involvement of gingiva.
• Initial stage in characterized by discrete
spherical gray vesicles.
• Lip- excoriation involving lip become
hemorrhagic
• Course is self limited to 7-10 days.
18
• Oral symptoms:
• Generalized soreness
• Ruptured vesicles – focal site of pain
• Infants show irritability and refusal to eat
• Pain upon swallowing
• Extra oral symptoms:
• Cervical lymphadenopathy
• Fever ( 101- 105℃)
• Generalized malaise, irritability
19
Treatment
• Symptomatic & supportive.
• Application of mild anesthetic such as dyclonine
hydrochloride(0.5%)
• Bed rest , soft diet are recommended during the
febrile stage & the child should be kept well
hydrated.
• Pyrexia - paracetamol suspension and secondary
infection of ulcers may be prevented using
chlorhexidine.
• In severe case, systemic acyclovir(200 mg daily for 5
days).
20
Recurrent aphthous ulcer
• Characterized by painful ulceration on the oral
mucosa
• Occurs between school age and adults
• Recurrent ulceration with painful discrete and
confluent lesions.
• Lesions are round to oval crateriform base,
raised and reddened margins.
21
• Etiology:
• Immunological abnormality: mucosal destruction
T-mediated immunological reaction.
• Microbial organism: ∝-hemolytic strept. And S.
sanguis.
• Systemic factors: like nutritional deficiency
22
• Clinical features:
• Occur between second and third decade of life.
• Buccal and labial mucosa tongue and gingiva are
commonly involved.
• Symptoms- lesions are typically very painful.
• Signs- begins as single or multiple superficial erosion
covered by grey membrane, surrounded by localized
area of erythema.
23
Treatment
• Symptomatic treatment
• Topical corticosteroid triamcinolone 3-4 times daily
by rinse and expectorate method.
• Nutritional diet.
• Maintenance of oral hygiene.
24
Acute necrotizing ulcerative
gingivitis
• Characterized by sloughing of gingival tissue
• Uncommon in children
• Predisposing factors:
• Local: poor oral hygiene, pre-existing gingivitis
and smoking
• Systemic: Emotional stress
• Nutritional deficiency –Vit B and C
25
• Clinical features
• Characteristic lesions are punched out, crater
like depression at the crest of interdental
papillae
• Surface of gingival craters is covered by
pseudomembranous slough.
• Linear erythma.

Atout RN, Todescan S. Managing patients with necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis. J Can Dent Assoc. 2013;79:d46.
• Extra oral and systemic symptoms:
• Local lymphadenopathy
• Elevation in temperature
• Increased pulse rate, leukocytosis, loss of
appetite, and general lassitude
• Systemic reactions are more severe in
children, insomnia, constipation, GIT
disorders, headache etc.
27
• Treatment:
• Perform debridement under local anesthesia.
• Remove pseudomembrane.
• Patient counselling should include specific oral
hygiene instructions, instruction on proper nutrition,
• For any signs of systemic involvement, the
recommended antibiotics are:
o Amoxicillin, 250 mg 3 x daily for 7 days and/or
o Metronidazole, 250 mg 3 x daily for 7 days
28
Acute candidiasis (thrush,
candidosis)
• Acute candidiasis:
1. Pseudomembranous
2. erythmatous
• Causative organism- C. albicans ( yeast like
fungus.
• Pathogenesis-
29
• Clinical features:
• Pearly white or bluish white plaque present on
oral mucosa which may extend to circumoral
tissues.
• Painless and noticed on careful evaluation. They
may be removed with little difficulty.
• Patient may complain of burning sensation.
30
• Treatment:
• Infants and very young children
• Nystatin 1ml (100,000U) dropped in to
mouth for local action four times a day.
• Clotrimazole suspension (10mg/ml) 1 to 2
ml applied over affected areas four times
daily
• Systemic fluconazole suspension
(10mg/ml) 6mg/kg body weight
31
Gingival enlargement
• Inflammatory enlargement
• Chronic inflammatory enlargement
• Acute inflammatory enlargement
• Drug induced gingival enlargement
• Vitamin C deficiency associated gingival
enlargement
32
Chronic inflammatory gingival
enlargement
• Long standing gingivitis in young patient
sometimes results in chronic inflammatory
gingival enlargement, which may be localized or
generalized.
• Etiology:
• Prolonged exposure to plaque
• Factors that favour plaque accumulation and
retention.
• Chronically dried gingiva in mouth breathing
33
• Clinical features:
• Characterized by slight ballooning of interdental papilla
and marginal gingiva.
• In early stage , it produces a life preserver-shaped bulge
around the involved teeth.
• Treatment:
• Removal of local irritants
• Oral hygiene maintenance
34
Acute inflammatory enlargement
• Gingival abscess
• Is a localized, painful rapidly expanding lesion that is
usually of sudden onset
• Etiology:
• Irritation from foreign substance
• Tooth brush bristle
• Piece of apple core
• Lobster shell fragment –embedded in to gingiva
35
• Clinical feature:
• Localized, painful, rapidly expanding lesion
• Limited to the marginal gingiva or interdental
papillae
• Early stage: red swelling with smooth shiny
surface
• With in 24 hours to 48 hours- lesion will be
fluctuant.
• Management: Incision and drainage
36
Drug-induced gingival enlargement
• Drug-induced gingival enlargement:
• Anticonvulsant
• Immunosuppressant cyclosporine
• Calcium channel blocker
• Clinical and microscopic features of enlargement
caused by different drugs are similar.
37
• Clinical features:
• The growth starts as a painless, beadlike enlargement
of the interdental papilla and extends to the facial
and lingual margins.
• As the condiiton progress, marginal and papillary
enlargment units and may develop into a massive
tissue fold.
• May interfere with occlusion.
38
Treatment modalities
Mild – < 1/3
of clinical
crown
oral hygiene maintenance and frequent
dental care
Moderate-
1/3 to 2/3 of
clinical
crown
oral hygiene
Antiplaque mouthrinse
4 consecutive weekly office visits for
prophylaxis, 5th week- evaluate the gingiva
If no improvement – surgical correction
Severe –
> 2/3 of
clinical
crown
If does not respond above treatment.
Surgical correction is done -meticulous
oral hygiene is essential .
Surgical procedure:- gingivectomy, laser,
or electrosurgery.
39
Ascorbic Acid Deficiency Gingivitis
• Associated with vit C deficiency
• Involves marginal and papillary gingiva in the
absence of local predisposing factors
• Complains of severe pain and spontaneous
hemorrhage
• Treatment: Complete dental care, improved dental
hygiene, and supplementation with vit C – improves
gingival conditions
40
Eruption Gingivitis
• Gingivitis associated with tooth eruption.
• Tooth eruption usually does not cause gingivitis,
however inflammation associated with plaque
accumulation around erupting tooth.
• perhaps secondary to discomfort caused by brushing
these friable areas, may contribute to gingivitis.
• Treatment: Complete dental care, improve oral
hygiene.
41
Periodontitis
42
• It is inflammatory disease of gingiva and deeper
tissues of periodontium.
• Characterized by pocket formation and destruction of
supporting alveolar bone.
• Periodontal probing for attachment loss and bitewing
radiograph are often used to clinically confirm the
diagnosis.
43
• According to Delaney, in preschool children with
periodontitis, recession, gingival erythema, and
oedema are not usually found unless the child is
neutropenic.
• Bimstein and Colleagues demonstrated abnormal
alveolar bone resorption in 7.6% of 4yr old children
and 5.9% of 5yr old children with high caries.
• In its classification of periodontitis, the American
Academy of Periodontology categorized the early-
onset form under Aggressive Periodontitis.

American Academy of Periodontology. Parameter on aggressive periodontitis. J Periodontol. 2000;71(suppl):867.44
Aggressive periodontitis
• Albander and associates proposed the term early-onset
periodontitis.
• This term is replaced by aggressive periodontitis following
the classification given by American Academy of
Periodontology in 1999.
45
Page and colleagues believe that
there are four different forms of
periodontitis : prepubertal,
juvenile, rapidly progressing and
adult.
COMMON FEATURES OF LAP AND GAP
• Aggressive forms of periodontal disease have
been defined based on the following primary
features (Lang et al. 1999)
Non-contributory medical history
Rapid attachment loss and bone destruction
Familial aggregation of cases
46
Localized Aggressive
periodontitis(LAP):
• Clinical features:
• characterized by “localized loss of attachment and
bone around permanent incisors and first permanent
molars”
47
• Prevelence is 1%
• It is linked to presence of Actinobacillus
actinomycetemcomitans and successful
treatment outcomes correlate well with
eradication of bacteria.
• Treatment : local measures in combination with
systemic antibiotic therapy.
48
Generalized aggressive
periodontitis (GAP):
• It sometimes occurs in adolescents and
teenagers.
• Characterized by generalized interproximal
attachment loss affecting at least three
permanent teeth other than incisor and first
molar.
49
50
Radiographs showing the severe generalized nature of disease
51
• A combined regimen of regular SRP with 2-week
course of systemic tetracycline therapy (250
mg, four times daily) .
• Aa is sensitive to tetracycline, which also has
the ability to be concentrated up to 10 times in
gingival crevicular fluid when compared with
serum.
Treatment:
52
• A combination of metronidazole (250 mg) &
amoxicillin (amoxycillin) (375 mg), three
times a day for 8 days, in association with
subgingival scaling, has also been found to be
effective.
• A more radical approach is to undertake flap
surgery so that better access is achieved for
root cleaning, and the superficial, infected
connective tissues are excised.
• An antimicrobial regimen can also be
implemented in conjunction with a surgical
approach.
Systemic diseases and conditions
with associated periodontal
problems
• Diabetes
• Down syndrome
• Hypophosphatasia
• Neutropenia
• Leukemia
53
Conclusion
• The early detection and treatment of periodontal
problems in children and adoloscents are
important for
1. Incipient periodontal diseases in children may develop
into advanced periodontal diseases in children.
2. Severe periodontal destruction in children may be
related to underlying systemic pathology.
• Education and motivation of children regarding
proper maintainence of periodontal health is the
simplest and most effective way for prevention of
periodontal diseases in the adult life.

  • 3. Introduction • Periodontal diseases peak their destructive stages in the middle age , but many of them have their inception during childhood. • The early detection and early treatment are important from a preventive aspect since, the prevention of most periodontal diseases are relatively simple and very effective, providing lifetime benefits. 3
  • 5. • The clinical and radiographic images of gingiva and periodontium in children and adolescent differ from those seen in adults, owing to the significant changes taking place during growth and development. • The periodontium during childhood and puberty is in constant state of change owing to the exfoliation and eruption of teeth. • This makes a general description of the normal periodontium difficult because it varies with age of the patient. (Baer and Benjamin, 1974) 5
  • 6. 6 Features Children Adults Gingival colour More reddish Coral pink contour Free gingival margin- rounded Gingival margin- knife edge Consistency Flabby due to less CT density and lack of organized collagen fiber bundles Firm and resilient Surface texture Stippling absent in infancy. `Mostly seen by age of 6 yrs Stippling present

  • 41. Eruption Gingivitis • Gingivitis associated with tooth eruption. • Tooth eruption usually does not cause gingivitis, however inflammation associated with plaque accumulation around erupting tooth. • perhaps secondary to discomfort caused by brushing these friable areas, may contribute to gingivitis. • Treatment: Complete dental care, improve oral hygiene. 41
  • 43. • It is inflammatory disease of gingiva and deeper tissues of periodontium. • Characterized by pocket formation and destruction of supporting alveolar bone. • Periodontal probing for attachment loss and bitewing radiograph are often used to clinically confirm the diagnosis. 43
  • 44. • According to Delaney, in preschool children with periodontitis, recession, gingival erythema, and oedema are not usually found unless the child is neutropenic. • Bimstein and Colleagues demonstrated abnormal alveolar bone resorption in 7.6% of 4yr old children and 5.9% of 5yr old children with high caries. • In its classification of periodontitis, the American Academy of Periodontology categorized the early- onset form under Aggressive Periodontitis.

  • 45. Aggressive periodontitis • Albander and associates proposed the term early-onset periodontitis. • This term is replaced by aggressive periodontitis following the classification given by American Academy of Periodontology in 1999. 45 Page and colleagues believe that there are four different forms of periodontitis : prepubertal, juvenile, rapidly progressing and adult.
  • 46. COMMON FEATURES OF LAP AND GAP • Aggressive forms of periodontal disease have been defined based on the following primary features (Lang et al. 1999) Non-contributory medical history Rapid attachment loss and bone destruction Familial aggregation of cases 46
  • 47. Localized Aggressive periodontitis(LAP): • Clinical features: • characterized by “localized loss of attachment and bone around permanent incisors and first permanent molars” 47
  • 48. • Prevelence is 1% • It is linked to presence of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and successful treatment outcomes correlate well with eradication of bacteria. • Treatment : local measures in combination with systemic antibiotic therapy. 48
  • 49. Generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAP): • It sometimes occurs in adolescents and teenagers. • Characterized by generalized interproximal attachment loss affecting at least three permanent teeth other than incisor and first molar. 49
  • 50. 50 Radiographs showing the severe generalized nature of disease
  • 51. 51 • A combined regimen of regular SRP with 2-week course of systemic tetracycline therapy (250 mg, four times daily) . • Aa is sensitive to tetracycline, which also has the ability to be concentrated up to 10 times in gingival crevicular fluid when compared with serum. Treatment:
  • 52. 52 • A combination of metronidazole (250 mg) & amoxicillin (amoxycillin) (375 mg), three times a day for 8 days, in association with subgingival scaling, has also been found to be effective. • A more radical approach is to undertake flap surgery so that better access is achieved for root cleaning, and the superficial, infected connective tissues are excised. • An antimicrobial regimen can also be implemented in conjunction with a surgical approach.
  • 53. Systemic diseases and conditions with associated periodontal problems • Diabetes • Down syndrome • Hypophosphatasia • Neutropenia • Leukemia 53
  • 54. Conclusion • The early detection and treatment of periodontal problems in children and adoloscents are important for 1. Incipient periodontal diseases in children may develop into advanced periodontal diseases in children. 2. Severe periodontal destruction in children may be related to underlying systemic pathology. • Education and motivation of children regarding proper maintainence of periodontal health is the simplest and most effective way for prevention of periodontal diseases in the adult life. 54

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. In additoin, gingival anatomic problems, such as lack of attached gingiva , can arise during development and may necessitate early management.
  2. Contour –shape of teeth , their alignment in arch, location n size of area of proximal contact, facial & lingual gingival embrassure. Consistency- gingiva is firm and resilient , wih exception of free marginal gingiva,tightly bound to the underlying bon. collagenous nature of lamina propria and its contiguity with the mucoperiousteum of the alveolar bone determine the firmness of attached Stippling- Best view in dried gingiva, produced by rounded protubence n depressions in gingival surface. Papillary layer of connective tissue projects into elevation, and the elevated n depressed area are covered by strat. Squamous epi.
  3. Younger children have less plaque, and gingiva appear to be less reactive to the same amount of plaque. Uncommon in early primary dentition. Orthodontic applainces r associated with incresed plaque retention and incresed bleeding on probing.
  4. Gingivitis is quick reversible and can be treated with a good oral prophylactic treatment Gingivitis is generally less severe in children than in adults with similar plaque levels.
  5. When gingivitis is establilshed, initial acute response is accompnied by chronic inflammation with lymphocytic and plasma cell accumulaiton, capilary formation, and collagen destruction. This too can be reversed by initial therepy but will require a longer period for gingival tissue to heal and restore lost collagen fibers.
  6. In some patients gingivitis proceeds to periodontitis , which is more difficult to treat. Therefore clinician must be vgilant to detect the early stage of gingivitis and carry out effective measures to prevent the progression of disease.
  7. moniliasis
  8. Remain letent untill reactivated, HSV-1 in trigeminal ganglion, HSV-2 in lumbosacral
  9. With varying degree of edema and gingival bleeding So that parting of lip during speech n swallowing become extreemly painful and difficult. Diagnosis:Rise in serum antibodies HSV-1,in cytologic study ballooning degenrtion of cells, multinucleated gaint cells, hisotpahtological finding- lipschutxz bodies. Lesion culture
  10. neutropenia of childhood is diagnosed between 6 and 24 months of age and is characterized by frequent and multiple pyogenic infections of the skin and mucous membranes.
  11. IgG IgM bind to the mucosal surface of pts suffering from
  12. Sussequently extending to the marginal gingiva anf rarely to attached gingiva and oral mucosa.
  13. Overgrowth of yeast on oral mucose leads to desquamation of epithilial cells and accumulation of bacteria, necrotic tissue. These debris combine to form pseudomb. Which adhere closely to mucosa.
  14. Characterstically – interdental papillae & marginal gingiva become enlarged , tissue is usually erythmatous , bleeds easily. t/t- it slowly resolves when adequat eplaque control is instituted, so gingivectomy is rarely required. Prolonged exposure to dental plaque and factors favour the accumulation and retention of it
  15. Exudative and prliferative features, deep red or bluish lesions are soft, friable with a smooth shiny surface, bleeds easily. Vascular engorgemnt, new capillary formation and associated degenrative changes. Firm , resilient, and pink- greater fibrotic components with an abundance of fibroblan and collagen.
  16. Localized painful rapidly expanding lesion tht has a sudden onset Limitied to marginal or interdental papilla Appers as red swelling with smooth shiny surface. Etiology; bacteria carried deep into the tissue when a forgein substance is forcefully embded into gingiva.
  17. Infiltraiton of PMN , purulent focus in conn. Tissue, edematous tissue and vascular enlargment.
  18. It is well-known consequence of administration of
  19. Covering to considerable amount of crown portion. h/f- hyperplasia of conn. Tissue and epi. Acanthosis of epi and elongated rete pages exiend deep into conn. Tissue, abundance of collagen bundles and fibroblant and formation of new BV.
  20. Conditions can becomeextreemsymptoms covering the crowns of teeth and interfering with the eruption or occlusion.
  21. scorbic acid is needed for accelerating hydroxylation and amidation reactions. In the synthesis of collagen, ascorbic acid is required as a cofactor for prolyl hydroxylase and lysyl hydroxylase. These two enzymes are responsible for the hydroxylation of the proline and lysine amino acids in collagen. Hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine are important for stabilizing collagen by cross-linking the propeptides in collagen. Defective collagen fibrillogenesis impairs wound healing. Collagen is an important part of bone, so bone formation is affected. Defective connective tissue leads to fragile capillaries, resulting in abnormal bleeding.
  22. AP is used as a generic term to describe a heterogenous grp of periodontal disease occuring in younger individual who are otherwise healthy. AP can be viewed as 2 categories of periodontits that may have overlapping etiologies and clinical presentations.
  23. It is also called localized juvenile periodontitis, is characterizd by the loss of attachment and bone around the permanent incisors and first permanent molars Attachment loss is rapid, 3 times the rate of chronic disease. 15- yr old black female pt who had atwin wid similar disease
  24. Metronidazole alone/ in combination with amoxicillin Some reattachment and resolutoin of periodontal defects can occur after antibiotic therapy, but localized surgical intervention is often necessary to manage the residual defects.
  25. It affect entire dentition and is not self-limiting. Not associated with high level of AAC tht occur in LAP but istead has a microbial profile closer to that of chronic disease. Clinical view showing minimal plaque and inflammation. A provisional wire and resin splint had been placed to stabilize the tooth. 22 Yr old black male patient with family history of early tooth loss
  26. Scaling anf root planing
