Q

Root to crown ratio

Q

Pit and fissure

A

Decay starts in grooves and spreads more quickly once in dentin. Deepest part of groove - enamel can sometimes not fuse completely, exposing dentin. This is a fissure. Pit is the same but with fossa.

Q

CEJ curvature diminish

A

from anterior to posterior. Deepest curvature (mesial surface of central incisor - up to 3.5 mm). For 3rd molar is between 1 and 0 mm.

30
Q

Root Axis Line

A

Imaginary line that splits the root in half (mesiodistally or faciolingually). Used as a reference for different landmarks. Ex. tip of cusp is facial to root axis line if viewed posteriorly.

31
Q

Height of contour/Crest of Curvature

A

Most prominent areas of tooth. If you bring the root axis line outward (parallel to original), the part of the tooth that still touches is this height of contour.

32
Q

Importance of height of contour

A

Clinical application: All facial and buccal surface height of contour is located on the cervical 1/3rd. Only one that is true for all teeth. Lingual HOC changes. On anterior it is in the cervical 1/3rd. Posterior is on middle 3rd. It is like this so that the HOC protects gingiva. Also, the bump deflects food away from gingival sulcus.

33
Q

If HOC is too large

A

Food debris will stay in gingival sulcus, causing inflammation.

34
Q

Embrasure Spaces

A

Triangular negative spaces that occur when two adjacent teeth touch. Cervical embrasure (or interproximal space), and Occlusal (or for incisors incisal) embrasure. From occlusal view, we get buccal/facial embrasure and lingual embrasure (usually larger than buccal).

35
Q

Tooth development

A

From lobes

36
Q

Anterior teeth lobes

A

3 lobes for facial, 1 lobe for lingual - total of 4. Mesial, middle, distal, lingual lobes.

37
Q

Premolar teeth lobes

A

Once called bicuspid, mandibular 2nd premolar occasionally have 3 cusps so this was changed. 3 facial lobes, one lingual cusp lobe. Same naming. Some premolars have two lingual cusps, and have 5 lobes (2 lingual).

38
Q

How many lobes form mandibular 2nd molar with 3 cusps

A

5 - 3 for facial cusp, 2 for each lingual cusps

39
Q

Molar lobes

A

1 lobe per cusp. Usually 4 or 5 lobes.

40
Q

Axial inclinations

A

Not straight angles for how teeth are set. Maxillary teeth: anteirors are mesially inclined, posterios not. Mandibular teeth are all mesially inclined. **Called long axis of the tooth (could be vertical, a little to the buccal, lingual, etc.). Do not confuse this with root axis line. Has to do with orientation of tooth in bone

41
Q

Axial inclinations - frontal view

A

Maxillary teeth tilt facially, mandibular teeth tilt lingually.

42
Q

Maxillary curve

A

Convex (smiley face)- anteroposterior curve of spee - canine to last molar curve.

43
Q

Mandibular curve

A

Concave (frown)

44
Q

Mediolateral curve (of wilson)

A

Mandibular (smile face) posterior view of molars, line from 3rd to 3rd concave. Maxillary is the exact opposite - convex.

45
Q

Interocclusal relationship

A

These curves allow for buccal cusp of mandibular teeth to fit in sulcus of maxillary, and the lingual cusp fits in sulcus of mandibular teeth. This helps chew.

46
Q

Occlusion

A

contact of the occlusal and incisal surfaces of maxillary and mandibular teeth (to close).

47
Q

Maximum intercuspation

A

Maximum amount of contact possible between maxillary and mandibular teeth.

48
Q

Interocclusal space

A

Little space between teeth when you go from maximum intercuspation and swallow. Approximately 3 mm. Dimension between tip of nose and chin when teeth are contacting (

49
Q

Vertical dimension in occlusion

A

Dimension between tip of nose and chin when teeth are contacting (~57 mm on average)

50
Q

Vertical dimension at rest

A

Dimension between tip of nose and chin when teeth are at rest (~60 mm on average).

51
Q

Class 1 occlusion (angle’s classes)

A

Mesiobuccal cusp of maxillary first molar fits into mesiobuccal groove of mandibular first molar. Maxillary canine will feed between mandibular canine and 1st molar. Maximal intercuspal position. Relationship of 2:1 interaction except for 24 and 25 (front teeth due to small diameter). Leads to overbite.

52
Q

Vertical overlap

A

Overbite

53
Q

Horizontal overlap

A

Overjet - Separation between lingual and facial surfaces of incisors

54
Q

Bridge

A

When making a bridge, you must use teeth w/higher root-crown ratio. 2/3 crown/root = optimal - 1/1 minumum

55
Q

Tallest tooth/Longest crown

A

canine or maxillary central incisor (second one)

56
Q

Longest tooth

A

maxillary canine

57
Q

Widest crown

A

mandibular first molar

58
Q

narrowest crown

A

mandibular central incisor

59
Q

Cusp

A

Entire pyramid - the tip is the cusp tip or apex. 4 ridges (medial, distal, facial, triangular ridge (cusp tip to middle of tooth))

60
Q

Cusps

A

Canines and posterior have between 1 and 5. Most are named after closest tooth surface/line angle

61
Q

Ridges

A

Cusp slopes or cusp arms. See slide Buccal ridge is an example.

62
Q

Mesial and Distal marginal ridges

A

Connect cusps in posterior teeth, on mesial+distal surface of tooth.

63
Q

Cingulum

A

Bump on linguocervical region

64
Q

Two triangular ridges join to form

A

One transverse/oblique ridge

65
Q

66
Q

Sulcus

A

Formed by transverse triangle ridge. This is a depression.

67
Q

Occlusal table

A

Most of chewing takes place here.

68
Q

Occlusal outline

A

Prominant points

69
Q

Mamelons

A

3 bumps - form on adult incisors from three labial lobes. Usually wear away.

70
Q

Perikymata

A

Very small horizontal wave-like ripples of enamel on newly erupted adult teeth.
