A17 Flashcards
Teeth, blood supply and innervation, development
Heterodenty
- Incisors
- Canines
- Premolars
- Molars
Diphydont
the first set of teeth will get replaced - incisors, canines and premolars (except the first premolar)
molars are not present in the first set
Dentes decidui vs permanentes
Decidui : milk teeth, replaced by permanent
Permanentes: las and permanent seet - molars
polyphyodont dentition
multiple sets of teeth erupt through the life (shark)
Thecodont
teeth are implanted in socets set along the margin of the jaw
Diastema
gap between the incisors and permolars
anelodont
limited growth period
elodont
grows throughout life - rodents
Different anatomical structures based on diet
carnivorous
omnivorous
herbivorous
Composition of the tooth
clinical crown - exposed
anatomical crown - covered in enamel
clinical root - below gumline
anatomical root - not covered in enamel
Brachyodont teeth
in Ca and Sus
Corona dentis
- the portion that projects into the mouth
- covered in enamel
Collum/cervix dentis
- located in the gumline
- end of enamel, start of cement
radix dentis
- apex raditis dentis - tip of the root
- encased in cement - softer and more yellowish
Hypsodont teeth
Eq + Ru
Corpus dentis
- there is no corona and cervix
Corona clinica
- free portion which is surrounded at its base by the gums, the exposed part
radix dentis
- short
radix clinica
- embedded portion
infundibulum dentis
- invagination of enamel on the occlusal surface
- lingual surface of some incisors of fe and bo
*
Hypsodont vs brachiodont
Hypsodont
Brachyodont
High crowned
Mineralised layers are arranged in folds
The whole crown is covered by enamel
Anatomical root: not covered by enamel and Short in hypsodont
No radix dentis: boar, incisor of rodents
Grows trough out, worn down
Short, strong
Completes their growth quickly
Surfaces of the teeth
Fascies vestibularis
fascies lingualis
fascies occlusalis
fascies contactus
- mesialis
- distalis
Cavum dentis (pulpare)
branches into each major elevation of the crown and into each root
cavum coronale dentis
cavum radicis dentis
Filled with:
Pulpa dentis
