Lesson 2
a. Number the boxes to put the text in order
In reply to your letter, dated May 19, thank you for referring the patient Lucia Moreno.
In general, patient has poor oral (1) hygiene but her teeth are well conserved with no evidence of caries. As you
noted, she has an (2) erupted lower right 3rd molar with associated pericoronitis. (3) TMJ relevealed that the
lower left wisdom tooth is also impacted. I would (4) advise removal of both these teeth as they could be the
possible couse of the Otalgia.
As you noted in your letter, the (5) temperomandibular joint does indeed have a small click. I noted that the
patient can only (6) open her mouth approximately 30mm, which is also indicative of TMJ dyfunction.
Radiographs relevaled that there is no internal pathology of the joint. I prefer to treat TMJ dysfunction as
conservatively as possible and I would therefore recommend that the patien prescribed NSAIDs and
benzodiazepinesd as the first line of treatment.
On (7) the term of the soft tissues, I noted that the patient also has a small painless erythematous lession on the
right floor og the mouth. One has to be suspicious of any lesion like this and I would suggest that an excision
biopsy* be performed at the same time as the third molars* are (8) erupted .
In reference to our phone call today, I will be happy to arrange for treatment.
Your sincerely,
David Hoffer
