Dental Anomalies Flashcards
Classifications of Abnormalities
- Abnormal Number
- Abnormal Size
- Abnormal Shape
- Abnormal Calcification and Apposition
Developmental Stages
- Dental Lamina and Bud Stage
- Cap Stage
- Bell Stage
- Root Development
Dental Lamina and Bud Stage
- Epithelial thickening
- Dental lamina
- Enamel organ
Cap Stage
Inner and Outer Enamel Epithelium
Bell Stage
- Tooth Form Identified
- DEJ
- Enamel and Dentin Formation
Root Development
- CEJ formation
- Dentin and Cementum Formation
Physiological Processes of Development
- Initiation
- Proliferation
- Histodifferentiation
- Morphodifferentiation
- Apposition
Initiation
- Dental Lamina and Bud Stage
- Existence of the teeth
Proliferation
- Bud, Cap, and Bell Stages
- General shape and size
Histodifferentiation
- Late Cap and Bell Stages
- Dentin and Enamel forming cells
Morphodifferentiation
- Bud, Cap, and Bell Stages
- Shape and size of teeth affected
- Dentin and enamel NOT affected
Apposition
- Bell Stage and Root Development
- Enamel and Dentin Formation
Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Causes of Abnormalities
- Intrinsic: Hereditary and Metabolic Disturbances
- Extrinsic: Physical or Chemical Trauma, Nutrition, Environment
Congenital Abnormalities
Caused by Extrinsic or Intrinsic Factors and occurring at or before birth
Anodontia
- Complete and Partial
- 3rd molars, maxillary lateral incisors, and mandibular 2nd premolars
Supernumerary/Accessory Teeth
- Extra tooth buds
- Mesiodens: Maxillary midline
- Distodens: Posterior to 3rd molar
