As maxillary nerve enters maxillary foramen (caudal foramen of infraorbital canal)  becomes infraorbital nerve & continues rostrally through the IOC and exit the foramen @ dorsal maxillary 4th PM. Caudal and middle superior alevolar branch exit the maxillary nerve in the pytergoidpalatine fossa in cats

64
Q

What is apexification?

A

method to induce the formation of a calcified barrier in a root with an open apex goal is provide a hard tissue barrier that will provide an apical stop for effective obturation  patient can keep the tooth

65
Q

What is apexogenesis ?

A

therapeutic process that allows inner and outer enamel epithelium to continue to proliferate to form Hertwig,s epithelial root sheath – plays a vital role in the differentiation of odontoblasts from the cells at the periphery of dental papilla  this structure and root formation progresses in an apical direction until complete formation of root occurs

66
Q

what is apexogenesis

A

treatment of vital pulp by pulp capping or pulpotomy ? continue growth of the root and closure of the apex

67
Q

What is pulp canal obliteration ? PCO

A

PCO is a reaction of the pulp to injury that results in acceleration of dentin production producing a tooth without a visible pulp canal

67
Q

What is apexification ?

A

method to induce development of the root apex in an immature non vital tooth by the formation of a hard tissue bridge

68
Q

2 theories of pulp canal obliteration POC develops . What are they?

A

1) change in sympathetic and parasympathetic blood flow to the pulp –> results in odontoblast stimulation which over production of dentin

2) blood clot formation acts as a nidus for calcification of the canal

69
Q

What is the definition of a cysts and what are the 3 parts it consists off?

A

A cyst is a pathological cavity lined by epithelium. The epithelium is surrounded by fibro collagenous connective tissue

It consists of 3 parts
central cavity
epithelial lining
fibrous capsule

70
Q

What is a dentigerous cyst ?

A

Dentigerous cyst is a type of an odontogenic epithelium. The cyst encapsulates the crown of an interrupted tooth and is attached at CEJ

71
Q

What is the possible pathogenesis of DTC ?

A

Fluid accumulates between the reduced enamel epithelium and enamel OR between the layers of enamel organ
As fluid built up or pressure by an unerupted tooth onto the impacted follicle it obstructs venous outflow
increase hydrostatic pressure of the transudate separates the follicle from the crown

72
Q

84
Q

what is a bifid nose

A

double or cleft nose, is a rare congenital anomaly- manifestation varies from single central groove and the nasal tip to involvement of the entire nasal osteocartilaginous framework

85
Q

What is the theory for the cause of bifid nose?

A

It is the malunion of maxillary process with the median nasal process which causes midline facial abnormalities

86
Q

What is a primary CP?

A

failure of fusion of the maxillary processes @ the midline
affects lips and or incisive bone

87
Q

What is secondary CP ?

A

both maxillary processes fail to fuse with the nasal septum
affects tissue caudal to incisive bone

88
Q

How does CP develop?

A
  • As the tongue progresses from nasal to oral cavity – it allows the palatine processes to meet at the maxillary midline to separate the 2 cavities. The nasal septum fuses with secondary palate –. Dividing nasal cavity into right and left cavities.
