Gingivitis
#8 MF discolored composite
#30 F recurrent decay FGC
The patient has all teeth present except third
molars.
Patient’s chief complaint: Check-up


What is the treatment to accomplish?
Patient’s treatment objectives can be quite
different from those of the dentist

Short-term
◦ Chief complaint
 Relieve pain
 Restore broken tooth

Long-term
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Stay free from pain
Replace teeth to restore function
Have a nice smile
Extract all teeth and get dentures
Don’t want teeth to keep breaking


Determination of goals starts with the
interview and can continue through the
examination process
Use open-ended questions
◦ How well are you able to eat?
◦ How do you feel about the appearance of your
teeth?

You may need to educate the patient about
the feasibility of their options
◦ Patient wants to keep all their teeth – severe perio
◦ Patient wants to replace existing bridge – decay is
too deep

Positive modifiers
◦ An interest in oral health
◦ The ability to afford dental treatment
◦ A history of regular dental care

Negative modifiers
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Time and/or financial constraints
Fear of dental treatment
Lack of motivation
Poor oral health
Destructive oral habits
Poor general health
Diet high in refined carbohydrates






Remove or arrest all decay
Eliminate pain
Provide the correct treatment for each
problem
Select the best material for a restoration
Ensure that the problems are addressed in
the correct order
Provide the ideal treatment
◦ Replace all missing teeth
◦ Improve esthetics
◦ Restore all problematic teeth




Knowledge and experience
Technical skills
Lack of specialists
Treatment planning philosophy
◦ All amalgams must be removed and replaced with
alternative materials
◦ If any amalgam larger than an occlusal must be
replaced, with a crown
◦ Restorations (amalgams, crowns) with open margins
and no pathology are not replaced
◦ 3rd molars should always be removed when the
patient is young


Possible goals of
patient
◦ Extract all teeth CD/CD
◦ Only place required
fillings and crowns and
replace/reline RPD’s
◦ Full mouth
reconstruction


Important in complex cases
Key teeth often serve as abutments for fixed
or removable partial dentures
◦ Retaining key teeth can stabilize prosthesis and
prevent bone resorption


Retention of key teeth can improve the overall
prognosis
Loss of key teeth can limit the number of
options available to a patient

Periodontally stable
◦ Little mobility
◦ First molars, canines

Favorably positioned in the mouth
◦ Spread throughout the arch
◦ Little supraeruption, tipping, rotation

Restorable
◦ No caries below or near the alveolar crest





Interview of patient and evaluation of health
history
Examination of patient
Determine the risks associated with the
patient’s medical conditions and medications
Request medical consultations as needed
Determine which treatment plan
modifications are required for this patient


Limited Evaluation
During the initial visit, you become aware of
acute conditions which should be treated
immediately, before continuing with the
Comp Oral Eval

Resolve symptomatic problems
◦ Pain, swelling, infection, broken teeth, missing
restorations

Typical types of treatments
◦ Extractions, endodontic treatment, perio therapy,
provisional restorations, repair prostheses

Often treatment is a palliative solution if the
long-term status of the tooth is uncertain
◦ Gross caries – instead of extraction or root canal
treatment, do pulpectomy
◦ Instead of replacing lost restoration, place
temporary


All parts of the patient evaluation occur in a
Limited Evaluation – however, they are
generally more “limited”
The findings, both negative and positive take
on more importance due to the urgency of
the situation.

New Patient
◦ Abbreviated health history

Current patient:
◦ Update the existing health history
 Have you had any recent hospitalizations, surgeries, or
major medical problems?
 Are you currently being treated by a physician?
 Do you have any heart or breathing problems?
 Do you have any allergies to any medication, food or
other substance such as latex?
 Do you have any bleeding problems?
 Have you had a joint replacement?
 What medications are you taking (over-the-counter,
herbs and prescribed)?
 (If female) Are you pregnant or taking birth control pills?
 What do you do for exercise?
 Do you have any other health problem that you are
aware of?


Must be thoroughly investigated to insure
that there are no systemic health limitations
or contraindications to dental treatment
If this can’t be determined a phone or written
consult is required before treatment can take
place
◦ Temporary can be placed
◦ Antibiotics and/or analgesics can be prescribed


Comprehensive dental history not needed
Questions related to the complaint are
appropriate
◦ When was the root canal placed?
◦ Have you been treated for gum disease?
◦ How has this problem been treated in the past?



Conversation between dentist and patient is
important to delineate these factors
With the need to expedite treatment, it is
common to make assumptions

Example:
◦ Badly decayed, symptomatic tooth. Patient has
multiple decayed and missing teeth.
 What are some assumptions the dentist might have
about the best treatment for this patient?
 What are some assumptions the patient might have
about the treatment he thinks that he needs?

Patient needs to be made of aware of:
◦ Consequences of the acute phase treatment
◦ Any anticipated future treatment needs

This needs to occur before a plan of care is
finalized

Same example: Badly decayed, symptomatic tooth.
Patient has multiple decayed and missing teeth. In
both instances the patient seems to know what she
wants, and is insistent about it.

What are some long term implications of treatment that
the patient should be aware of for each treatment?
◦ Treatment: Extraction
◦ Treatment: Endodontic treatment

Dentist’s decisions
◦ How critical is this tooth to the overall oral health?
◦ What is the prognosis?
◦ In light of the patient’s other oral needs is it
realistic to invest resources to try to keep it?
◦ What other treatment (endodontic, restorative
periodontal)is required to insure that the tooth is
functional and esthetic?

Patient’s decisions
◦ How much time, energy and money is the patient
willing to invest in saving the tooth?
◦ What is required in the way of follow-up? Is the
patient ready to commit to that?




Resolving an acute problem can be a difficult
for the dentist and patient
The patient must be provided with enough
information to make a decision that will meet
both short and long-term needs
The dentist must develop a pattern for the
process of reaching a consensus
This can be difficult when working in an acute
situation

The BEST treatment alternative is to manage
the patient’s acute problem with definitive
care – extraction or extirpation of the pulp
(initial part of root canal treatment)

In some situations it is prudent to prescribe
medications rather than initiate treatment
◦ The problem or offending tooth cannot be
identified
◦ The patient has systemic health issues that
preclude treatment at the time
◦ The patient has an active infection, and there is
significant risk that profound anesthesia cannot be
attained or that surgical intervention may lead to
further pain or spread of infection
◦ The patient is unwilling to give consent




Prescription of medications does not end with
writing the prescription
The dentist’s obligation is to follow-up to
ensure resolution of the problem
The patient should be appointed for definitive
treatment with you or a specialist before he
leaves
If the patient fails the next appointment – the
responsibility for success or failure is now on
the patient


The problem should be documented in the
Treatment History using the SOAP format
The plan should include the provision of:
Postoperative instructions
Discussion of possible sequelae from treatment
Prescriptions
Guidance on what to do if the original problem
persists or worsens
◦ An appointment for the definitive treatment
◦
◦
◦
◦

The dentist should always call the evening of
the appointment




It can be difficult to provide acute treatment
in an already busy schedule
Protocols for handling acute problems should
be developed to minimize the effect on your
schedule
You can choose to work new patients into the
schedule
Patients of record must be worked into the
schedule

Providing acute treatment efficiently,
compassionately and professionally is one of
the best ways of building your referral
practice.
