Q

What is the pathway of molecule within the saliva to form a taste sensation?

A

taste pore—> gustatory microvilli –> gustatory cell depolarization—>CN VII and IX

25
Q

How many deciduous teeth are there?

A

20–shed from 6 months and 20 years of age

26
Q

What is the portion of the tooth above the gum covered by enamel?

A

crown

27
Q

What is the portion of the tooth within the alveolus surrounded by cementum?

A

Root

28
Q

What is the junction of the crown and root?

A

cervix

29
Q

What is the space within the tooth filled with soft tissue, composed of a coronal chamber and a radicular canal?

A

Pulp cavity

30
Q

What is a calcified material surrounding the pulp cavity?

A

Dentin

31
Q

What is connective tissue that joins the cementum to the alveolus?

A

periodontal ligament

32
Q

What is the hardest tissue in the body and made of 98% hydroxyapatite? What is it deposited by?

A
  • enamel

- Tome’s processes of ameloblasts

33
Q

Is enamel renewable?

A

No

34
Q

What is the percent calcium hydroxyapatite of dentin? What are its organic components

A

70%

–Type I collagen fibers and GAGs [secreted by odontoblasts]

35
Q

What are tall cells that line the pulp cavity that secrete a collagen rich matrix from their apical surface known as predentin?

A

odontoblasts

36
Q

What are canals in which odontal processes run called?

How long are they?

A
  • dentinal tubules

- The length of the span of dentin

37
Q

What is the makeup of pulp?

A
  • mesenchyme-like CT
  • blood vessels
  • nerves (via apical foramina in tooth root)
38
Q

What are pulp nerve fibers sensitive to?

A

temperature and pH which is interpreted as pain

39
Q

What structures make up the periodontium?

A

cementum
periodontal ligament
alveolar bone
gingiva

40
Q

What is the region of the tooth where the enamel crown ends and the cementum layer surrounding the root begins?

A

cement-enamel junction

41
Q

Where is the cementum the thickest?

A

apical region

42
Q

What produces cementum? where are they located?

A

cementocytes in the periodontal ligament

43
Q

T-f—-cementum can react to stresses by resorbing tissue or laying down new cementum?

A

True

44
Q

What has the appearance of primary immature bone, contains osteocytes within the lacuna and helps hold the teeth in place?

A

alveolar bone

45
Q

What structure does scurvy largely effect?

A

synthesis of collagen and especially effects the periodontal ligament

46
Q

When does teeth formation occur? how long does it take for a tooth to develop?

A

6 weeks

14 months

47
Q

What is the order of stages for tooth development?

A

bud—>cap—> bell

48
Q

What are the main structures found in the bud stage?

A

49
Q

What stage is marked by the invagination of the dental bud and engulfing of a region of ecto-mesenchyme?

A

50
Q

What 2 main structures make up the cap stage?

A
