31
Q

Gemination

A

two tooth buds from a single tooth germ-normal number of teeth-one root canal

32
Q

number of root canals in gemination

A

1-tooth number normal tho

33
Q

macrodontia

A

tooth larger than normal-NOT fusion or gemination

34

A

KBG syndrome, hemi facial hyperplasia

35
Q

% of macro dontia

A

1.1% in permanent

36
Q

Microdontia and %

A

Small tooth- 2.0% in perm

37
Q

Most common tooth of microdontia

A

max lat (peg) and 3rd molars

38
Q

Syndrome of microdontia

A

pituitary dwarfism

39
Q

Dens in dente

A

developmental invagination in the cingulum pit

40
Q

41
Q

Most common tooth with dens in dente

42
Q

Dens evaginatus

A

tubercle projecting from the occlusal surface

43
Q

Commonality of dens evaginatus

44
Q

Dens evaginatus affects what race commonly

45
Q

Most common tooth of dens evaginatus

46
Q

Asians most commonly have this defect

A

dens evaginatus

47
Q

Talon cusp and %

A

hornlike projection of the cingulum ~1-2%

48
Q

Most common tooth of talon cusp

A

max cent incisor

49
Q

Amelogenesis imperfecta

A

inherited defect of enamel

50
Q

Prevalence of amelogenesis imperfecta

51
Q

Teeth affected by amelogenesis

A

prim and perm

52
Q

Phenotypes of amelogenesis

53
Q

hypoplastic

54
Q

Hypomaturation

A

insuficient removal of enamel proteins causing poor crystal quality causing normal thickness but soft and rough surface

55
Q

Phenotype of hypomaturation

A

yellow-brown friable enamel

enamel is rapidly lost by attrition and teeth are sensative

anterior open bite is infrequent

56
Q

Hypocalcified phenotype

A

insufficient calcification of enamel –> normal thickness but friable

57
Q

Visual of hypocalcified

A

yellow brown or orange brown

enamel lost by attrition-teeth sensative

ant open bite frequent!!!

Teeth acumulate calculus deposits

58
Q

Molar incisor hypomineralization and prevelance

A

localized opacity or breakdown in permanent molars and incisors—prevalence of 10% very high

59
Q

etiology of molar incisor hypomineralization

A

disturbance of tooth formation (i.e. high fever) between birth and 1st year

60
Q

MIH (molar incisor hypomin) enamel thickness and surface

A

normal thickness-smooth and white, brown or yellow

61
Q

boundary adj to normal enamel

A

distinct boundary

62
Q

breakdown in MIH?

A

may or may not be

63
Q

where is opacity in MIH?

A

incisal 1/3

64
Q

restoration in perm molars of MIH

A

atypical or extensive caries

65
Q

Enamel Hypoplasia

A

defect in quantity of enamel-caused by intitial failure of deposition of enamel protein or mineralization defect

66
Q

Enamel hypoplasia general or localized?

A

localized to one tooth

67
Q

Enamel hypoplasia is related with _____ of the primary dentition

A

dental trauma

68
Q

fluorosis

69
Q

tooth discoloration

70
Q

dentinogenesis imperfecta

71
Q

Dentinal dysplasia and prevalence

A

inherited defect of dentine-1:100,000-primary and perm
