Final exam Flashcards
Wider and longer crowns with straight incisal edges
Maxillary centrals
Smaller and more rounded edges with straight incisal edges
Maxillary laterals
Rounded facial surfaces with a single pointed cusp
Maxillary canines
-Most commonly extracted
-May have divided root
-Long central groove that extends over mesial marginal ridges
-Possible bifurcation
-Mesial crown concavity
-Mesial root depression
Maxillary 1st premolars
-Short central groove only 1/3 of occlusal surface
-1 root
-No bifurcation
Maxillary 2nd premolars
-3 roots
-Oblique ridge
-Cusp of carabelli
-4 cusps
Maxillary 1st molars
-3 roots
-Oblique ridge

Maxillary 2nd molars
-Most narrow
-Symmetrical
Mandibular centrals
-Edges more rounded
-Incisal edge slopes distally
-Wider than centrals
Mandibular laterals
-One single cusp tip

What makes up the occlusal table?
Margin ridge + cusp ridges/slopes
When does primary tooth development begin?
6 weeks in utero
What are the stages of tooth development?
Initiation
Bud
Cap
Bell
Apposition
Maturation
When is the initiation stage?
6-7 weeks
When is the bud stage?
8th week
When is the cap stage?
9-10 weeks
When is the bell stage?
11-12 weeks
What is the primitive mouth?
Stomodeum
What is the stomodeum lined by?
Ectoderm
What does the stomodeum give rise to?
Oral epithelium
What migrates to areas to influence ectomesenchyme tissue?
Neural crest cells
What is oral epithelium and ectomesenchyme separated by?
Basement membrane
Extensive growth of the dental lamina into tooth germ penetrating into ectomesenchyme
Bud stage
Oral epithelium consists of two horseshoe- shaped bands of tissue which will become the two arches/jaw
Initiation stage
Abnormally large teeth
Macrodontia
Abnormally small teeth
Microdontia
- Proliferation of growth of cells continues
- Tooth bud of the dental lamina does not grow
into a large sphere surrounded by
ectomesenchyme instead there is unequal
growth in different parts of the tooth bud
Cap stage
What three structures are now considered to be tooth germ at the end of the cap stage?
Enamel organ
Dental papilla
Dental sac
What future dental tissue is produced from the enamel organ?
Enamel
What future dental tissue is produced by dental papills?
Dentin and pulp
What future dental tissue is produced by the dental sac?
PDL
Alveolar bone
Cementum
