Lecture 2: Terminology and Chronology Flashcards
Universal Numbering System
1-32
1= Right Maxillary 3rd molar
32= Right Mandibular 3rd molar
Palmer Notation System
UTILIZES quadrants and symbols for identifying teeth.
FDI System of Numbering
Breaks into four quadrants and lists through 1-8
1 being central incisors and 8 being third molars
Anterior Teeth
6-11 Maxillary right Canine through Maxillary left canine
22-27 Mandibular right canine through mandibular left canine.
What are the numbers for the Central incisors?
Maxillary: Teeth #8 and #9
Mandibular: Teeth #24 and #25
What are the numbers for the lateral incisors?
Teeth #7, 10 (max)
Teeth #23, 26 (mand)
What are the numbers of the Canines?
Teeth #6, 11 (max)
Teeth #22, 27 (mand)
What constitutes the POSTERIOR teeth?
the pre-molars and the molars
What are the numbers for the premolars?
Teeth #4, 5, 12, 13 (max)
Teeth #20, 21, 28, 29 (mand)
What are the numbers for the Molars?
• Teeth #1, 2, 3, 14, 15, 16 (max) • Teeth #17, 18, 19, 30, 31, 32
(mand)
How does naming primary teeth differ from deciduous teeth when using the Universal System of Notation?
Primary teeth are identified (A-T)
A= Right Maxillary 2nd molar
T= Right Mandibular 2 Molar
IN VIVO
looking or taking place in a living organism
Vermilion Zone
The red zone of the lips.
Vermillion Border
sharp junction
of the red zone and skin
Nasolabial groove
demarcates
lip and cheek
Philtrum of lip
middle of upper
lip
Angle/Corner of the
mouth/Commissure

Labiomental groove
between the lower lip and the chin. (see a picture)
Using a picture Draw the following structures on the face
Vermilion Zone Vermilion Border Nasolabial groove Philtrum of lip Angle/Corner of the mouth/Commissure
Labiomental groove
What part of the mouth is the oral Vestibule
Slit like space between teeth and lips/cheeks
Labial/Buccal Frena:
attachments of the lips
and cheeks to the
alveolus (bony area
surrounding the teeth)
What structures lie on the hard palate. Using a picture, please identify each
Incisive Papilla
Rugae
Midline Palatine Raphe
How much of the roof of the mouth does the hard palate occupy?
2/3
Houw much of the roof of the mouth does the soft palate occupy?
1/3
What structure hangs off the soft palate?
Uvula
What structures comprise the orpharynx
Tonsils Anterior (palatoglossal arch) & Posterior (palatopharyngeal arch) Pillars of the Fauces
mylohyoid muscle
The paired muscles that form the floor of the mouth.
This muscles runs from the mandible to the hyoid bone and forming the floor of the oral cavity of the mouth. It is named after its two attachments near the molar teeth (“mylo” comes from the Greek word for “molar”). These muscles are mesodermal in embryologic origin.
Sublingual folds: Find in the drawing
Raised folds where
submandibular salivary
ducts open
Lingual Frenum: Find in drawing
The lingual frenum is a fold of mucous membrane connecting the ventral tongue to the floor of the mouth. In general, lingual frenum serves multiple roles; its main function is to support the tongue and aid in limiting its movement in different directions.
Structures in the Cheek and Retromolar Region:
Buccal Mucosa
Retromolar Pad
Buccal Mucosa
Buccal mucosa is the lining of the cheeks and the back of the lips, inside where they touch the teeth
retromolar pad
The retromolar pad is a mass of soft tissue located at the posterior end of the mandibular alveolar ridge. This pad covers the underlying bone with surrounding attached muscle fibers.
Why is the chronology of Development important?
Assess the patient’s DENTAL AGE: Is the patient developing normally?
Important for procedures like: endodontic therapy, and whether or not to extract a tooth.
Forensics and Medications`
First sign of tooth development is at:
6-7 weeks in utero
