Q

Morphodifferentiation

A

The shape and size of the tooth are determined in this process, which happens during the budy, cap and bell stages. Thus a disturbance in morphodifferentiation may inffluence the size and shape of a tooth but have no effect on the enamel and dentin-forming process.

Q

Apposition

A

The process is active during the bell stage, through the completion of the root, and involves the regular laying down of the enamel and dentin.

Q

Is permanent or primay teeth more prone to abnormality?

A

Permanent dentition is much more prone to abnormality than deciduous teeth. This is partially explained by the position of the permanent tooth bud on the dental lamina when compared to the primary tooth bud

Q

Abnormal Number of Teeth - Reason

A

The presence of an abnormal number of teeth, either more or less than usual, is almost always the result of some type of disturbance during the initiation process (dental lamina and budy stage) of teooth develipment. The disturbance is most often hereditary in nature.

Q

Abnormal Size of Teeth

A

-Normally the teeth of an individual vary in size directly with their general face and body size. Therefore, large, or small teeth, when found in this context, are not considered to be abnormal

  • very rare for all the teeth to be abnormal in size
  • Anomaly is usally limited to a single tooth, or a few teeth of the same type
  • is thought to be the result of a disturbance during morphodifferentiation in the bell stage, with genetic etiologoy

Q

Complete Microdontia

A

-pituitary dwarfism
-all teeth, rare

20
Q

Isolated Microdontia

A

-peg laterals (maxillary lateral incisors)
-cancer treatment during tooth development

21
Q

Abnormal Shape of Teeth

A

-abnormal crown and root shapes and contours is normally involved with disturbances during the morpho differentiation and apposistional stages of tooth development

22
Q

Dens in Dente

A

-tooth within a tooth
-enamel and dentin vaginate inward to the pulp
-common in maxillary laterals and central incisors
-may require endodontics

23
Q

Dilaceration

A

-sharp bend in a root or crown
-interference with eruption path
-crowding, trauma, orthodontics
-common 3rd molars
-endo and exo concerns

24
Q

Flexion

A

-same cause as dilaceration
-only involves root

25
Q

Gemination

A

-single tooth bud attemps to split in two
-imcomplete division
-mandibular and maxillary incisors
-clinically difficult to distinguish from fusion
-complete separation (twinning) is possible
-normal complement of teeth or one extra tooth

26
Q

Fusion

A
  • two tooth buds attempt to join
    -incisors common
    -one less tooth clincally
    -radiographically two pulps
27
Q

Concrescense

A
  • union of 2 roots by cementum
    -due to crowding and resorption of bone between roots
28
Q

Enamel Pearl

A

-pearl-like deposits of enamel at the furcation of molars
-1-2 mm in size
-chronic periodontal infection

29
Q

Hypercementosis

A

-excessive deposition of secondary cementum on roots
-trauma
-post eruption
-infection
-extraction difficult

30
Q

Abnormal Calcification and Apposition – Disturbances in the Formation (Structure) of Teeth

A

This group of anomalies is the result of disturbances that affect enamel and dentin formation during the histodifferentiation and appositional stages. The resultant condition is dependent upon the severity of the disturbance, the stage of matrix or calcification affected, as well as the length of the disturbance

31
Q

Enamel Hypoplasia

A

Incomplete or defective formation of enamel matrix on primary and secondary teeth.

32
Q

Fever-Related Enamel Hypoplasia

A

-horizontal white lines, pits, or grooves
-lack of enamel

-defect enamel formation or lack of calcification
-various types and severity

-bilateral
-chalky white to brown

35
Q

-abscess affects permanent tooth bud (germ)
-white spot to enamel deficit

36
Q

Hutchinson’s Incisors

A

-congenital syphillis

-affected molars have small supernumerary lobes resembling a mulberry/raspberry (mulberry molars)

37
Q

-no underlying support
-amber-grey brown
-fraction and sever attrition
-obliterates the pulp

38
Q

A

-intrinsic stainig
-mom or child taking antibiotic
-band-like grey to green discoloration
-no functional side effect

39
Q
A

An odontoma is really not an anomaly of shape, but rather a benign tumor. An odontoma is a growth of calcified dental tissues, involving structures of both ectodermal (enamel) and mesodermal (dentin, cementum, and pulp) origin. There are two basic types, both of which are thought to result from developmental disturbances of the dental lamina by trauma or infection

40
Q

Complex Odontoma

A

This growth consists of calcified dental tissues and may be attached to a normal tooth, or located separately in the alveolar bone. It does not exhibit any definite dental form

41
Q

Compound Odontoma

A

This type of odontoma also consists of the various calcified tissues of a tooth, but in comparing it to the “complex” type, these tissues are arranged in the shape of a recognizable tooth form. There may be one or more of these tooth forms, sometimes with almost perfect similarity to a normal tooth, and sometimes resembling more rudimentary dental forms

42
Q

Attrition

A

-wearing down and loss of occlusal and/or incisal tooth structure due to frictional contact
-flattening of tooth
-grinding, occlusion porcelain restorations

43
Q

Abrasion

A

-mechanical wearing away of tooth
-toothbrush - high pressure, med to hard bristles
-recession of gingiva

44
Q

Abfraction

A

-appears as abrasion
-“v”-notches in dentin with recession
-shear and tensile stresses at CEJ (clenching)
-distruption of the bond between dentin and enamel

45
Q

Erosion

A

-chemical wearing away/dissolving of enamel
-lemon sucking, cocaine, bulimia
-apple juice, carbonated beverages, sports beverages

46
Q

A

-chipped teeth, broken teeth, and infection at the site of the piercing
