Dental Mix Flashcards
explain
What is Accretion ?
Accumulation of plaque and calculus
Woody et al 2018 “Transposition of mandibular molars in dog”
What is Tooth transposition
Position of interchange of 2 adjacent teeth
Woody et al 2018 “Transposition of mandibular molars in dog” Define complete transposition
When crowns and roots of involved teeth have exchanged places
Woody et al 2018 “Transposition of mandibular molars in dog” Define incomplete transition
Crowns are transported but roots remain in their normal position
What is monophyodont ?
Single set of teeth that lasts for the entire lifespan Rodents
Define diphyodont
develop 2 successive sets of teeth - deciduous & permanent
Aradicular hypsodont
Teeth without roots that continue to frow and erupt throughout life - all teeth in rabbits, Guinea pigs, Chinchilla
Only Incisors in mice & rats
Radicular hyposodont teeth
Short rooted teeth that stop growing but continue to erupt - Horse
What is the strongest mastication muscle in chinchilla/Guinea pig? How many parts and function ?
Masseter muscle - 3 parts - superficial & medial part –> pull mandible rostrally, deep infra orbital section –> move mandible rostrally & main fx is to close the mouth
How many teeth do pigs have?
44
What is bunodont and which animal has it
Molar teeth with crowns in the form of rounded or conical cusps. Pigs
What is molar progression ?
is the mesial /forward movement of molar teeth with age - normal physiological process in grazing , browsing (macropods)
Infraorbital block
Targets infraorbital nerve –> branches from the maxillary branch of the trigeminal nerve (CNV) . Anesthetizes ipsilateral maxillary PM, C, Incisor teeth by preventing sensory to the trigeminal
Maxillary nerve block
targets major & minor palatine nerve and blocks entire quadrant – dentition, soft tissue, palate
Inferior alveolar nerve block
- Inferior alveolar block targets branch of mandibular nerve, the inferior alveolar nerve. Blocks all ipsilateral mandibular dentition & soft tissue
Mental nerve block
Targets the mental nerve , a branch from the inferior alveolar nerve innervates soft tissue from chin, lips, rostral gingiva, rostral buccal mucosa
Robb et al “scanning electron microscopic study of the dentinal tubules in dogs canine tooth” - size of dentinal tubules
2.1 micrometer adjacent to the pulp ( deep dentin) to 0.9 micrometer adjacent to enamel junction( superficial dentin) . # of tubules vary from 90000 to 24000/mm2 in same area
Robb et al, Scanning Electron Microscopic Study of the Dentinal Tubules in Dog Canine Teeth2007 - What significant findings tubular density in dogs ?
NO significant difference were found between superficial tubular densities and deep tubular densities of small vs large breed dogs
Tubular density was HIGHEST in deep dentin adjacent to the pulp chamber
Significant differences were found between superficial and deep dentinal surfaces of small breed and large breed dog
Robb et al, Scanning Electron Microscopic Study of the Dentinal Tubules in Dog Canine Teeth2007 -
Is there a difference between superficial and deep dentin diameter ? What shape are they ?
NO significant differences was found between deep and superficial dentin diameters or between small versus large dogs
dentinal tubules are oval shaped in the d
hypsodont elodont aradicular dentition
long crowned, continues growing, open rooted teeth ( rodent and lagomorphs)
Wyss 2016, measuring Rabbits tooth Growth and eruption by fluorescence marker -
How many mm does a maxillary and mandibular incisor grow a week in a rabbit
1.9 mm/week maxillary incisors teeth & 2.2 mm/week for mandibular incisors teeth grow a week in rabbits
Brachygnathism
Maxillary > mandible
Over shot
Prognathism
Mandible > maxillary
Undershot
What is concrescence?
2 teeth are joined by cementum but not dentin
what is enamel hypoplasia?
Enamel hypoplasia refers to inadequate deposition of enamel matrix,
i.e., when the density or mineralization is generally normal, but the enamel is thinner than normal.
What is enamel hypomineralization?
- inadequate mineralization of enamel matrix, resulting in white, yellow, or brown spots in the enamel. This often affects several or all teeth.
The crowns of affected teeth may be soft and wear faster than normal teeth
What is dentiongenesis imperfecta ?
Dentinogenesis imperfecta is a hereditary abnormality
in the formation of dentin. The clinical appearance of
affected teeth varies from gray to brownish violet to a
yellowish‐brown color, but the teeth can also exhibit a
characteristic unusual translucent or opalescent hue.
What is gemination
tooth with a double crown, single root and usually a single root canal
What is gemination?
tooth with a double crown, single root and usually a single root canal
What is fusion?
2 teeth that are joined with confluence of dentin
What is concrescene?
2 teeth that are joined by cementum but NOT dentin
Odontoplastic dysplasia
condition where all the components of the tooth that derive from the dental organ in the affected teeth are abnormal
odontoplastic dysplasia
condition where all the components of the tooth that derive from the dental organ in the affected teeth are abnormal
Plaque index
Tooth mobility
Furcation
Gingival index
what method is utilized to use blue light to see mature plaque ?
Quantitate light fluorescence
405 nm wavelength to show mature plaque to glow red
