Introduction Periodontal emergencies are a part of the everyday practice of dentistry. A periodontal emergency is any circumstance that adversely affects the periodontium and requires immediate attention. The clinician must be able to assess the emergent conditions rapidly and accurately in order to provide relief for the patient. Effective management of periodontal emergencies aids in both the patient's physical and psychological wellbeing.

Gingival Abascess
A localized purulent infection that involves the
marginal gingiva or interdental papilla 28 Juni 2018 KP Blok 12, FKG UNIMUS SEMARANG 6 Etiology – Acute inflammatory response to foreign substances forced into the gingiva (food) Clinical Features – Localized swelling of marginal gingiva or papilla – A red, smooth, shiny surface – May be painful and appear pointed – Purulent exudate may be present – No previous periodontal disease – Mobility

Treatment • Primary treatment : drainage to relieve pressure. through the pocket using a periodontal curette or an external incision. • Foreign material removed from the area, the abscess is rinsed thoroughly to remove any remaining debris. • Occlusal adjustment (extruded in the socket). • an acute exacerbation of a chronic condition (extensive attach loss) extraction • Antibiotic if some systemic invol.

Periodontal Abscess
A localized purulent infection within the tissues
adjacent to the periodontal pocket that may lead to the destruction of periodontal ligament and alveolar bone 28 Juni 2018 KP Blok 12, FKG UNIMUS SEMARANG 9 Clinical features ≈ gingival abscess Usually pre-existing chronic periodontitis present. Factors associated with abscess development – Occlusion of pocket orifice (by healing of marginal gingiva following supragingival scaling) – Furcation involvement – Systemic antibiotic therapy (allowing overgrowth of resistant bacteria) – Diabetes Mellitus 28 Juni 2018 KP Blok 12, FKG UNIMUS SEMARANG 10 Periodontal vs Periapical Abscess Periodontal Abscess Periapical Abscess • Vital • Non vital • No caries • Caries • Pocket • No pocket • Lateral radiolucensy • Apical radiolucency • No or minimal mobility • Mobility • Percussion + • Prcussion + • Sinus tract via alveolar • Sinus tract via gingiva mucosa 28 Juni 2018 KP Blok 12, FKG UNIMUS SEMARANG 11 Treatment • Establish drainage (anastesi) • Occlusal adjustment • Antibiotics

Symptoms – Localized red, swollen tissue – Area painful to touch – Tissue trauma from opposing tooth common – Purulent exudate, trismus, lymphadenopathy, fever, and malaise may be present – radiating pain to ear – Systemic complication : fever, malaise
28 Juni 2018 KP Blok 12, FKG UNIMUS SEMARANG 14
Treatment – Debride/irrigate under pericoronal flap – Tissue recontouring (removing tissue flap) – Extraction of involved and/or opposing tooth (occlusal adjustment) – Antimicrobials (local and/or systemic as needed)
Conclusion • In periodontal emergent conditions, patient presents with an acute problem and seeks immediate relief. • Proper treatment of the emergency may provide the practitioner with a life-long patient and may contribute to personal satisfaction for the treating clinician.
