Oral cavity - Smith Flashcards
Apical part of tooth
Tooth root
Coronal part of tooth
Crown, I think it’s under gums
Occludal part of tooth
Erupted portion
Maxillary cheek have
Buccal/palatal sides
Mandibular cheek teeth have
Buccal/lingual sides
Interdental spaces of cheek teeth are
Rostral or caudal
Maxillary incisors have
Labial/palatal sides
Mandibular incisors have
Labial/lingual sides
Interdental spaces of incisors are
Mesial/disal aspects
Type of teeth horses have
Hypsodont teeth
Hypsodont teeth
- High crowned teeth
2. Enamel extending past gum line
Anatomic crown
Part of tooth covered by enamel
Clinical crown
I don’t know what he means by this
Reserve crown
What you can’t see
- Alveolar
- Gingival
Eruption/wear rate
2-3 mm/yr
Attrition
Tooth wear due to multiple factors
Occlusal surface
- Cementum-cementoblasts
- Enamel-ameleoblasts
- Dentin-ondontoblasts
Pulp
- Connective tissue skeleton
- odontoblasts
- vasculature
- lymphatics
- nerves
Common pulp
- Separate pulp horn -> 1 yr
2. Roots -> 2 yrs
Number pulp horns Incisors/canines
One
Number pulp horns CT 7-10
Five
Number pulp horns CT 6, Mandibular 11
Six
Number pulp horns Maxillary 11
Seven
Triadan classification
Deciduous teeth 24 teeth
-500s, 600s, 700s, 800s
Permanent teeth 36-44 teeth
-100s, 200s, 300, 400s
Aging
Occlusal surface, lower incisors
- Dental star = pulp cavity
- Infundibular cup
- Enamel spot = apical aspect infundibulum
General features of aging
- change in shape of occlusal surface
- Direction of upper and lower incisors
- Lengths vs width of upper corner incisor
- Hook of upper corner incisor (7-13 yrs) 7 yr notch
- Galvaynes groove
Galvaynes groove
10 yrs - start to see it upper corner incisor 15 yrs - halfway down tooth 20 yrs - all the way down tooth 25 yrs - halfway gone 30 yrs - gone
Incisor wear pattern depends on
- Individual variation
- Diet
- Environment
- Eruption times
- Mineralization rates
- Depth of enamel infundibulum
- Behavior
Canines
- Don’t have deciduous canines
- Eruption at 4-6 yrs
- May not be present in females
- Long reserve crown
- Pulp cavity within 5 mm occlusal surface
Wolf teeth
- Brachydonts
- May be deciduous
- Maxillary more common than mandibular
* Make sure you get all of the reserve crown (up to 30mmlong)
