Examen I Flashcards
Which two surfaces of a tooth CANNOT be “proximal”? What are the axial surfaces?
Facial & Lingual..Axial Surfaces=F,L,M,D
What is the oblique ridge ALSO referred to? What two cusps are making this guy?

Maxillary 2nd molars…19 weeks
What are the FIRST primary teeth to exfoliate? WHEN?
BOTH mandibular and maxillary Central Incisors…6.5 Years (SO just as the first permanent teeth are coming in!)
What is the LAST primary tooth to peace out? WHEN? WHAT is it REPLACED by?
Maxillary Second Molars….11 yrs…Replaced by Perm Max 2nd PreMolar
What are the first permanent teeth to erupt? WHEN?
The Max AND Man 1st molars..6yrs
What ARE the permanent TEETH to complete their root formation FIRST? WHEN?
The Max AND Man 1st molars & MAN central incisors…9 years of age…makes sense, they are all the first teeth in..
By what age have all permanent INCISOR tooth roots formed?
11 yrs
What is the OVERDEVELOPMENT of either the distal cusp ridge of the ML cusp or the mesial cusp ridge of the DL cusp on a permanent mandibular molar?
Tuberculum Intermedium (Tuber=swelling, Tuberculum= small swelling)
Plane of Occlusion: The IDEAL plane is NOT _____.

Curved
Plane of Occlusion: The teeth are strategically positioned in the arches at varied and coordinated degrees of ________.
inclination
WHERE are the contacts for each mandibular anterior? M of Central:____ D of Central:_____ M of Lateral:_____ D of Lateral:____ M of Canine:_____ D of Canine:_____
M of Central:_Incisal___ D of Central:__Incisal___ M of Lateral:__Incisal ___ D of Lateral:__Incisal__ M of Canine:___Incisal__ D of Canine:__Middle___

0.5mm…middle 1/3
Height of Contour-Mandibular arch: second premolar lingual surface (mm and 1/3)
0.75mm….middle 1/3

Oblique PDL fibers are known to resist _______ ________ of a tooth into the alveolus, consistent with many types of ______.
Forceful Impaction….Trauma
________ fibers help maintain contiguous proximal contact.
Transseptal
An EMBRASURE can exist, even in situations when there is a ________ between the proximal contact!
Diastema (its not necessary for the adjoining teeth to physically touch in order for embrasures to be exhibited)
In an ideal embrasure construct, every contact area produces how many embrasures?
4
Which tooth is the ONLY one with SMALLER LINGUAL embrasures then facial embrasures?
MAXILLARY first molar (crown tapers to the facial)
In the maxillary arch, the Facial embrasures are ______ then the Lingual Embrasures EXCEPT surrounding the ______ _______ _______!!!
F SMALLER then L…EXCEPT surrounding the MAXILLARY FIRST MOLAR (think TAPER…lingual is larger then facial so less lingual embrasure)
Concerning Primary VS Permanent Crowns: The enamel is relatively _____ & has consistent _______.
Thin…..depth
Concerning Primary VS Permanent Crowns: The _____ thickness between the pulp chambers & the enamel is LIMITED.
Dentin
Concerning Primary VS Permanent Crowns: The pulp horns are _____ and the pulp chambers are proportionally _____.
HIGH….Large
Concerning Primary VS Permanent Crowns: Primary pulp horns protrude higher underneath crown heights because their ______ thickness is minimal, compared to permanent teeth.
Dentin
Incisal View-PRIMARY Max Lat Incisor: the Incisal Ridge is CURVED toward the ______ surface.
DISTAL
Lingual View-Primary Max First Molar: The ___ cusp IF VISIBLE is small.
DL
Facial View–Primary Mandibular First Molar: The ___ cusp is LARGER and Taller then the ___ cusp.
MF cusp is larger and taller then DF cusp (normal)
Facial View–Primary Mandibular First Molar: There is a short or indistinct facial ______ that looks more like a depression.
Groove
Facial View–Primary Mandibular First Molar: The _____ _____ significantly points or dips apically onto the mesial root surface on the ______ half of the tooth.
cervical line…..mesial
Facial View–Primary Mandibular First Molar: The cervical _____ is quite convex in the ______ half and FADES OUT onto the ___ Cervical Third.
Ridge….Mesial….DF
Facial View–Primary Mandibular First Molar: The mesial root is much _____ and more ______ then the distal root.
LONGER….straight
