Dental Flashcards
What is standard dental labeling
Labial orientation/mounting
Dot that is rostral and concave towards beam
Know the dental anatomy of canine teeth
Diagnosis?
Cervical burnout - excessive exposure at the crest of the alveolar ridge
What part of the tooth is similar opacity to bone
dentin
How do you differentiate cementum on a radiographic
trick question - cementum and dentin have minimal contrast variance so you cant really
In what percentage of patients is an apical delta visible?
70%
apical delta is a grouping of branchign apical foramina that pass throught the apical toot roots
______ root canals are present in ~2.5% of teeth and leave main canal to attach to periodontal ligament
Non-apical or lateral
Anatomy
lucent = periodontal ligament
opaque = lamina dura
When can you have a double lamina dura
convexity of a root
Where is there a thinner cortical plate with embedding of the alveolar process?
maxilla is thinner than mandible
Diagnosis
Normal mandibular symphysis in a brachycephalic
Anatomy
A - body of mandible
B - ramus
C - coronoid process
D - condyloid process
E - angular process
What is this structure - black arrows
infraorbital foramen
What are dog and cat dental formulas
Anatomy
mental and caudal mental foramina
At what age does root reach its full length to allow apical closure
cats: 7-11months
dogs: 7-10 months
earlier in molars than canine teeth
What teeth do small breeds typically not have
mandibular second molar
other terms for polyodontia
hyperdontia
supernumerary teeth
most common incisor and premolar
What is wrong with second premolar (maxillary)?
What is it called when its multiple teeth?
fusion of roots
concrescence
