This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: GROUP 2 CONCEPT MAP DRAFT (12 38 PM), continued growth of adhering organisms adhesion of new bacteria synthesis of extracellular polymers causes MICROBIAL SHIFT, CLINICALLY HEALTHY GINGIVA possesses a certain MICROBIAL COMPOSITION, formation of GCF causing extracellular spaces at junctional epithelium to widen, glucans provide skeleton and protective barrier, MICROBIAL SHIFT described as marked increase in gram-negative anaerobic bacteria, Gram-positive facultative aerobic bacteria comprises the DENTAL BIOFILM, Continuation of Junctional epithelium proliferation, HISTOLOGICALLY equivalent to Established lesion, MOLECULAR ADSORPTION/ PELLICLE FORMATION proceeds to BACTERIAL ADHESION BY SINGLE MICROORGANISM, GINGIVITIS can be classified as EARLY GINGIVITIS, Gingival Sulcus CLINICALLY HEALTHY GINGIVA, balance between immune-inflammatory responses in the gingival tissues, PERIODONTITIS characterized by CLINICAL FEATURES, Inflammatory infiltrates comprised of Mostly plasma cells, Red/Bright Red color Not firm consistency Possible bleeding with gentle probing Bulbous interdental Papilla EARLY GINGIVITIS, High levels of Gingival crevicular fluid exudation, "acquired pellicle" which functions as bacterial attachment, definite pathogens such as Tannerella forsythia, Activation of cytotoxic T-cells produces high levels of inflammatory infiltrate, Established lesion presents with Continuation
