Exam 2 (CH 5 & 6 Crash course) Flashcards
is characterized by well-defined, pear-shaped radiolucency, and is believed to be of odontogenic epithelial origin. When it is large enough, divergence of the roots of adjacent teeth can result.
Globulomaxillary
Often referred to as a pseudocyst because it is not a pathologic cavity and is not lined with epithelium. It is characterized by a well defined radiolucency in the posterior region of the mandible inferior to the mandibular canal, which is caused by a lingual depression in the mandible containing salivary gland tissue.
Stafne defect
(Static bone cyst)
Glandular odontogenic cyst are most common in anterior maxilla and posterior mandible.
True
False
True
A failure or disturbance that occurs during the process of prenatal development that can result in a lack, excess, or deformity of a body part. Also called developmental anomaly.
Developmental disorder
an odontogenic developmental cyst with a unique histologic appearance. The lumen is lined by epithelium that is 8 to 10 cell layers thick and surfaced by parakeratin. The basal cell layer is palisaded and prominent; the interface between the epithelium and the connective tissue is flat. This cyst has a higher recurrence rate than many other odontogenic cysts.
Odontogenic keratocyst
A cyst that forms around the crown of an unerupted or developing tooth. Also call follicular cyst.
Dentigerous
A complete or almost complete congenital lack of teeth.
Anodontia
Partial anodontia. The lack of one or more teeth.
Hypodontia
Globulomaxillary cyst is a cyst found between the roots of
Maxillary lateral incisor
&
cuspid
“Twinning”; when single tooth germ attempts to divide, resulting in the incomplete formation of two teeth; the tooth usually has a single root and root canal
Germination
Glandular odontogenic cyst are most common in
Anterior maxilla
&
mandible
______ is a rare developmental odontogenic cyst. Exhibit a distinctive microscopic appearance. Developmental; may cause enlargement of bone
Glandular odontogenic
“a tooth within a tooth” ; a developmental anomaly that results when the enamel organ invaginates into the crown of a tooth before mineralization. It is most commonly seen in the maxillary lateral incisor. Also call dens invaginatus
Dens in dente
Amelogenesis imperfecta is a broad group of condtions that affect the structural formation of the _________.
Enamel
A condition characterized by very large, pyramid-shaped molars with large pulp chambers and short roots.
Taurodontism
Located within the nasopalatine canal or the incisive papilla. It arises from epithelial remnants of the embryonal nasopalatine ducts. Also known as an incisive canal cyst.
Nasopalatine canal cyst
The incomplete or defective formation of enamel, resulting in the alteration of tooth form or color
Enamel hypoplasia
A mass of thyroid tissue located on the tongue away from the normal anatomic location of the thyroid gland. It is an uncommon developmental anomaly that results from the failure of primitive thyroid tissue to migrate from its developmental location in the area of the foramen cecum on the posterior portion of the tongue to its normal position in the neck. Also called ectopic lingual thyroid nodule.
Lingual thyroid nodule
Concrescence is a condition in dentistry in which two adjacent teeth are united by.
Cementum
Talon Cusp is an accessory cusp located in the area of
Cingulum in a maxillary or mandibular permanent incisor
