Lecture 1 Flashcards
two human sets of deeth
permanent, deciduous
teeth are of different form/types/functions… ex) human
heterodont
teeth are of same form/type/function… ex) crocodile
homodont
one set of teeth like rats seals walruses
monophyodont
more than two or a continuous set of teeth
polyphyodont
permanent or deciduous teeth are blank traits
set
blank traits refer to maxillary or mandibular
arch
refers to the patient’s right or left mouth
side
trait that is which tooth of the class (1st, 2nd, etc)
type
trait that is the kind of tooth (molar, canine, etc)
class
transitional phase when both deciduous and permanent teeth are present, not a full set
mixed dentition
there are blank sets of dentitions but blank periods of dentition stages due to blank
2, 3, overlap
primary dentition phase starts at blank
6 months
mixed dentition stage usually starts at about blank
6 years
permanent teeth are usually fully present as a set at blank
12 years
baby teeth aka
milk teeth
adult has blank teeth
32
child has blank teeth
20
four quadrants
maxillary right/left, mandibular left/right
two types of incisors
lateral, central
aka cuspid, for cutting and piercing
canine
two types of premolars
first, second
premolars aka
bicuspids
three types of molar
1st, 2nd, 3rd
molars are aka
6 year molar, 12 year molar, wisdom tooth
function of molars
grind
there are blank types of molars in deciduous set
2
there are no blank in deciduous set
premolars
shedding of deciduous tooth
exfoliation
process by which deciduous roots are melted away to allow for exfoliation
resorption
permanent teeth that replace exfoliated deciduous teeth
succedaneous
there are blank succedaneous teeth
20
blank take the place of the the deciduous molars
premolars
eruption age of deciduous mandibular central incisor
6 months (1)
eruption age of deciduous mandibular lateral incisor
7 months (2)
indicates one side of the mouth that includes both upper and lower quadrants… must be multiplied by 2 to provide the number of teeth in the entire dentition
dental formula
order of standardized tooth identification
set arch side type class
example of standardized tooth id
permanent mandibular left second molar
if permanent, blank does not have to be stated
set
allows for ease of documentation of dental records. like shorthand, rather than completely writing everything out
numbering systems
three types of numbering systems
universal (KNOW),
palmer, fdi, (know only how they work)
universal numbering system is for blank teeth
permanent
universal numbering system starts where
maxillary right 3rd molar
universal numbering system ends at blank
mandibular right
this numbering system uses four brackets to denote each quadrant
palmer system
an attempt at a worldwide standardization used in Europe and canada
fdi
fdi stands for
federation dentaire internationale
fdi uses a blank where first number identifies blank and second number identifies blank
binomial, quadrant (1-4 permanent, 5-8 deciduous), tooth (1-8 permanent starting at central incisor, 1-5 deciduous)
two separate sets of teeth or dentitions
diphyodont
anterior teeth include these
to canine
anterior teeth have blank surfaces and blank edges
4, 1
midline surface of anterior teeth
mesial
