Q

What determines the outline of the root dentin and the number of roots a tooth will have?

A

hertwigs root sheath

31
Q

when is hertwig’s root sheath removed?

A

before the cementum is laid down

32
Q

Where does enamel stop forming?

A

at the end of the enamel organ

33
Q

What causes the tooth to move occulusally?

A

the continued formation of dentin after enamel stops

34
Q

What divides the pupal tissue and creates multiple roots

A

the epithelial modification of Hertwigs root sheath

35
Q

When is the root formation completed?

A

1-4 years after the tooth erupts

36
Q

What is the appositional stage of tooth development?

A

the time where the enamel and dentin are growing against each other and cause the proper formation

37
Q

What does the stratum intermedium create?

A

alkaline phosphatse

38
Q

What does the inner enamel epithelium become?

A

ameloblasts -> enamel

39
Q

What do the peripheral cells of the dental papillae become?

A

odontoblasts -> dentin

40
Q

What is mantle dentin?

A

the first formed dentin.
-30-50 um thick
-has type I and III collagen

41
Q

How is the collagen in the matrix of the mantle dentin aligned?

A

perpendicular to the DEJ

42
Q

What is the shape of ameloblasts actively secreting enamel?

A

tall columnar

43
Q

What is the shape of ameloblasts that are inactive?

A

short columnar or cuboidal cells

44
Q

What layers are combined to form the primary cuticle (Nasmyth’s membrane) ?

A

-reduce ameloblasts
-outer enamel epithelium
-stellate reticulum
-stratum intermedium

45
Q

What is adontia?

A

refers to the total lack of tooth development

46
Q

What is hypodontia?

A

denotes the lack of development of one or more teeth

47
Q

What is oligdontia?

A

indicates the lack of formation of six or more teeth

48
Q

What is hyperdontia?

A

development of an increased number of teeth (supernumerary)

49
Q

When does the defect occur when there are supernumerary teeth?

A

during the initiation stage

50
Q

What is a mesoden?

A

the most common manifestation of supernumerary tooth formation
-an extra tooth formed right at the midline between the central incisors

51
Q

What is an odontoma?

A

small fragments of tooth structure consisting of dentin, enamel, cementum, or any combination

52
Q

When does an odontoma begin formation?

A

during the initiation stage

53
Q

What is a complex odontoma?

A

conglomerate mass of enamel and dentin that bears no anatomical resemblance to a tooth

54
Q

What is a compound odontoma?

A

comprised of multiple, small tooth like structures

55
Q

What is the treatment for complex odontoma?

A

complete removal
-is locally invasive and will continue growing
-can result in a thinning mandible that is more likely to fracture

60
Q

What is fusion?

A

when two teeth start growing together

Q

What is the difference between gemination and fusion?

A

gemination: tooth count is normal when the double tooth is counted as one
fusion: tooth count reveals a missing tooth when the double tooth is counted as one

62

What is concrescence?

A

defect that occurs during apposition and maturation that result in the union of root structures of two or more teeth by cementum

Q

What is tubercle formation?

Q

What is a dentigerous/ follicular cyst?

A

cyst that is attached to the CEJ

-originates by separation of dental follicle from the crown of an unerupted tooth

65
Q

What type of cell do keratocystic odontogenic tumors arise from?

A

Where are 65% of keratocystic odontogenic tumors?

A

in the mandible

67
Q

What type of cysts are keratocystic odontogenic tumors?

A

68
Q

What is the treatment of keratocystic odontogenic tumors ?

Q

What are ameloblastomas considered?
