exam2 Flashcards
Treacher Collins is caused by
diminished neural crest cell migration.
occurs at 7th week of intrauterine life.. genetic origin
disturbance in 1st brachial arch
FAS
fetal alcohol syndrome
germ layer formation & initial organization of structures
germ layer formation & Initial organization begins on what day
Day 17
crouzon Syndrome
prenatal fusion of the superior and posterior sutures of the maxilla along the wall of the orbit.
Produces distortion of cranial vault
Pierre Robin Syndrome
A fetus head is flexed tightly again
respiratory problems at birth that may require
some children have
Hemifacial Microsomia primary cause
Early loss of neural crest cell
6 weeks after conception
Treacher Collins characterized by
generalized lack of mesenchymal tissue in lateral part of face
Underdevelopment of maxilla& mandible
Absence of malar bone
intrauterine molding
refers to pressure against the developing face prenatally.
can lead to distortions in rapidly growing face.
Torticollis
a twisting of the head caused by excessive tonic contraction of neck muscles on one side.
Affects the entire face not just the mandible.
facial Asymmetry
Masseter muscle was largely missing on left side
Decrease in tonic muscle activity results in
too much vertical growth, excessive eruption of posterior teeth. and severe anterior open bite
Mesiodens
supernumerary teeth
most common mesiodens
appear in Maxillary Midline
The neural tube forms
during days 18-23 in utero
achondroplasia
deficient growth of cartilage found in humans& dogs
dominant gene..so sometimes only partially expressed
anchondroplasia is due to
deficient growth the synchondroses of maxilla
achondroplasia results
results in humans short limbs cranial base does lengthen
modern reason for crowding
Increased outrbreeding
Crowding caused by mix between heredity and environment
normal tongue thrust is associated with
with normal teeth together swallow
History of thumb sucking and
tongue. thrusting forward to open bite.
tongue crib
habit appliance
fixed to lingual arch and soldered to upper 1st molar bands
prevents digit sucking habit
myofunctional bead
tongue training appliance
hait appliance
bluegrass
digit sucking appliance
teflon roller trains tongue
in severe maxillary
Maxillary teeth fit inside the mandibular
but no mandibular shift
treatment of crossbite
early correction(primary if must) for Posterior crosstie&mild anterior cross bite. surgery for severe anterior crossite
most common transverse discrepancy intramurally
Posterior crossite
the rule of thumb .. 3 or more than 3 teeth in crossbite
Definition of crossbite
Abnormal buccolingual or labiolingual relationship of teeth
diagnosis of posterior cross bite
Dental: Functional shift,Lingual inclination of maxillary dentition,,, Adequate width of maxilla and mandibular apical base
Skeletal:No functional shift, Narrow palatal vault, buccal inclination of max dentition
