A 20-year-old man who smokes comes to your office for a new patient examination. The patient reports not having been to the dent

ist since he was about 10 years old. He claims to brush but not floss his teeth because his gums bleed when he flosses. He complains that a few of his teeth have recently become increasingly sensitive. After a brief initial extraoral and intraoral examination, the dentist orders a full mouth series of radiographs in order to proceed with the examination. While you are preparing the necessary films and holders, the patient asks you why you have to take so many radiographs. What are some of the reasons you can give him?

They allow your me to look past the tissue of your mouth, such as your gums, and into the deeper areas of your teeth and jaw bone. That way I can look for signs of oral health issues that may be invisible with a visual examination alone.

The nurse should be concerned about the Compartment syndrome which requires emergency measures.

When adjacent bones are separated from the joint, their normal use is disturbed and their shape is distorted.

Trauma can disrupt the local blood supply to structures such as articular cartilage, causing degeneration, chronic pain, and limited movement.

Compartment syndrome is a condition in which structures such as tendons and nerves are compressed in an enclosed space. Fractures of the humerus can also be displaced, but are not the result of a circulatory disorder.

Muscle cramps can occur around the fracture site but do not cause circulation problems.

The humerus is the shoulder bone located between the elbow and shoulder. Its main function is to support shoulder and various arm movements.
