What are the CLASSIFICATION OF IMPACTION
IN RELATION TO RAMUS & 2ND MOLAR
CLASS I CLASS II CLASS III
Used to describe teeth which are smaller than normal
MICRODONTIA
‘peg lateral’ is what condition?
MICRODONTIA
cone-shaped crown
Peg lateral
the opposite of microdontia and refers to teeth that are larger than normal.
MACRODONTIA
Has been associated with pituitary gigantism,
but is extremely rare
MACRODONTIA
in which all teeth are missing, may involve both deciduous and permanent dentition.
ANODONTIA
occurs as a result of extraction of all teeth.
False anodontia
sometimes applied to multiple unerupted teeth.
Pseudoanodontia
Involves one or more teeth and is a rather common condition.
Ex. Congenitially absend left maxillary central incisor resulting in underdevelopment of the maxilla and severe malocclusion
Hypodontia
SUPERNUMERARY TOOTH
extra tooth between maxillary central incisors
Mesiodens
SUPERNUMERARY TOOTH
extra tooth found elsewhere than in the midline of the arch
Peridens
SUPERNUMERARY TOOTH
extra teeth on the buccal or lingual side of
the maxillary molar
Paramolars
SUPERNUMERARY TOOTH
additional cusp on the
buccal surface of a permanent maxillary molar
Paramolar tubercle
ERUPTION ANOMALY
INVOLVING CROWN
Two tooth buds/germs fused or joined together
Fusion
ERUPTION ANOMALY
INVOLVING CROWN
One tooth bud and became two teeth
Gemination
ERUPTION ANOMALY
INVOLVING CROWN
o Bull
o The tooth has a big body but small extremities (big crown, pulp, coronal pulp but small roots)
Taurodontism
ERUPTION ANOMALY
INVOLVING CROWN
The tooth development is going inside
Dens invaginatus
