Q

what is important to remember about down syndrome in regards to atlanto-axial instability and dental treatment?

A

-short necks are protective for atlanto-axial stability. Do not ask patients to extend/move neck the same way you would a non-DS pt. May cause injury or paralysis.

Q

genetics involved with hypodontia that affects perm molars and other teeth in severe cases

22
Q

genetics involved with hypodontia that affects 3rd molars, 2nd premolars, +/- premolar, and max lateral incisor

23
Q

genetics involved with hypodontia that affects 3rd molars, 2nd molars, 2nd premolars, mandib centrals and laterals, max laterals and COLON POLYPS AND CORECTAL CANCER

24
Q

which is more common, single tooth macro or micro dontia?

A
  • micro = common

- macro = rare

25
what is the most commonly affected tooth by isolated microdontia?
max lateral incisor, followed by the 3rd molar * prevalence is 1-8% * autosomal dominant * with peg lats, may see slight generalized microdontia
26
what is a syndrome of oligodontia and microdontia?
ectodermal dysplasia *teeth, salivary glands, skin, sweat glands, hair, nails
27
which teeth are most commonly affected by macrodontia?
- usually isolated teeth - perm incisors, canines, 2nd premolars and 3rd molars and PRIMARY 2nd molars *rare for diffuse involvement
28
is macrodontia more often unilateral?
no, bilateral
29
in the PRIMARY dentition, what is the most commonly affect tooth by macrodontia?
2nd primary molar
30
anomalies of proliferation and morphodifferentiation
conjoined teeth *could be germination or fusion
31
single enlarged tooth in which the tooth count is normal * attempted division of a single tooth to divide * most often incisors and canines * eruption probs
germination
32
single enlarged tooth in which the tooth count is fewer than normal * union of two different teeth (primary and perm) * usually ant * caries often develop
fusion
33
conjoined teeth by cementum?
concresence
34
lingual invagination of inner enamel epithelium that has deep lingual pits and prominent cingulum
dens in dente (dens invaginatus)
35
what is the prevalence of den in dente?
0.04-10%
36
what are the most common teeth affected by dens in dente?
max lateral incisors *uncommon in primary teeth
37
what does a dens in dente look like on a radiograph?
-opaque oval invagination to crown or root, tooth within a tooth
38
what are large lesions in dens in dente referred to as?
dilated odontome
39
what is the treatment for dens in dente?
sealant, RCT
40
cusp-like enamel in central groove or lingual ridge of buccal cusp of premolar or molar?
dens invaginitus
41
are dens invaginatus more likely bilateral or unilateral?
bilateral (rare in primary molars)
42
what is the prevalence of dens invaginatus?
1-4%
43
what cultures most likely have dens invaginatus?
- asian or native american | * associated with shovel-shaped incisors
44
what are some problems associated with dens invaginatus?
- pulpal exposure - parulis - traumatic occlusion
45
cusp on the lingual of anterior tooth, ususally permanent
talon cusp *pulpal tissue in cusps and traumatic occlusion
46
what is the prevalence of the talon cusps?
1-8%
47
what ethnicities most likely have talon cusps?
-asian, native americans, inuits, arabs
48
what syndrome are talon cusps associated with?
rubenstein-taybe syndrome
49
abnormal angulation or bend in root or rarely the crown of a tooth
dilaceration
50
what is the cause of dilaceration?
- idopathic - trauma - jaw lesion - avulsion or intrusion of primary tooth *could lead to delayed or aberrant eruption
51
what is the treatment for dilaceration?
ortho
