Clinical Diagnostic Procedures Ch #4 Diagnosis & Tx Planning Training in Basic Science enables: – Perform diagnostic tests – Interpret test results differentially – Psychologically manage patient during testing – Formulate diagnosis and treatment plan. Systematic Approach to diagnosis 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Ascertain chief complaint Take relevant medical and dental history Conduct thorough SubjectiveObjective- Radiographic examinations Analyze the data obtained Formulate appropriate diagnosis Scope of Endodontics Vital Pulp therapy Nonsurgical RCT Endo Surgery Retreatment Hemisection-Root Amputation Bleaching Intentional replantation Endodontic Endosseous implants Apexification Apexogenesis Transplantation Treatment of trauma Perio-endo pathosis Ortho-endodontics Graduating General Dentist Should be very skilled in diagnosis and treatment planning over a broad base Should know when to consult and refer. Systematic Approach to diagnosis 1. Ascertain chief complaint Diagnosis 1. Chief Complaint – – – – First information obtained Problem expressed in patient’s own words Recorded in non-technical language If referred may be “No CC” Downloaded from: Pathways of the Pulp, 9th edition (on 15 September 2006 07:24 PM) © 2005 Elsevier Diagnosis 1. 2. Ascertain chief complaint Take relevant medical and dental history 2. Health History – Comprehensive for new patients – Update data of prior patients Demographic data Medical History Current Medications Dental History Chief complaint Present illness Demographic data Identify Pt characteristics Medical History There are no absolute C/I to endodontics Endodontics is less traumatic than extraction Older patients are in need of RCT Cases that need precautionary measures When consultations are needed Current Medications List medications as presented by patient Review C/I and precautionary measures Downloaded from: Pathways of the Pulp, 9th edition (on 15 September 2006 07:24 PM) © 2005 Elsevier Dental History Pay attention to state of patient Ask probing questions Establish good rapport and caring attitude. Diagnosis 1. 2. 3. Ascertain chief complaint Take relevant medical and dental history Conduct thorough SubjectiveObjective- Radiographic examinations 1.Subjective Examination Present Illness Pain Tentative diagnosis Present Illness Only if a patient has a sign problem If no sign symptoms go on to objective tests Pain may affect pt;s psychology Dr must be open, caring, and interested to elicit the most info Ask further probing questions Reiterate to the patient what they said in a clear manner. Pain Intensity – Intense irreversible pathosis – Recent, not long standing – Unrelieved by analgesic – Intermittent – Irreversible pulpitis – Acute apical periodontisits or abscess Spontaneous pain – Without eliciting stimulus – Awakens patient – May be relieved by cold – Usually irreversible pulpitis Continuous pain – Lingering type of pain after removal of stimulus – Continuous pain with thermal stimulus= irreversible pulpitis – Continuous pain after application of pressure = periradicular pathosis Tentative diagnosis Careful subjective questions Rule out non-odontogenic causes Urgency of treatment determined Confirmed or denied by hands-on oral examination and clinical tests. 2.Objective Examination Extraoral examination – – – – – – – – – General appearance skin tone Facial asymmetry Swelling Discoloration Redness Extraoral scars Sinus tracts Tender or enlarged lymph nodes Downloaded from: Pathways of the Pulp, 9th edition (on 15 September 2006 07:24 PM) © 2005 Elsevier Intraoral examination – Soft tissue: Lips-Oral mucosa- Cheeks- Tongue- PalateMuscles – Alveolar mucosa & attached gingiva Discoloration Inflammation Ulceration Sinus tract formation – Dentition Discoloration Fractures Abrasions Erosions Caries Large restorations Clinical tests Complex Process Tests of patients response!
