ortho 2 Flashcards
1
Q
3 phases of tooth eruption
A
pre eruptive
eruption - intra-osseous and extra-osseous
post eruption
2
Q
what are the fibres formed at the periphery of the eruption pathway, that guide the tooth into the oral cavity called
A
gubernacular cord
3
Q
describe the intra-osseous eruptive phase
A
root formation - proliferation of epithelial root sheath then dentine and pulp formation
movement of developing tooth occlusally or incisally - slow, several months
formation of gubernacular cord - links tooth follicle to gingiva
reduced enamel epithelium rises with oral epithelium to form junctional epithelium
4
Q
describe the extra-osseous eruption phase
A
penetration of crown tip ruptures epithelium - fast, 1-2 weeks
formation of attached gingivae
crown moves through mucosa until contacts opposing tooth - slow, several months
environmental factors determine final position (forces from cheeks, lips, tongue)
5
Q
describe the post eruptive phase of eruption
A
movement after tooth reaches occlusal plane
- response to growing alveolar bone and jaws
- response to attrition and abrasion - compensating for wear
- tooth wear of proximal surface leads to mesial drift
- over eruption due to loss of opposing teeth
6
Q
give a cause of mesial drift
A
tooth wear of proximal surface
7
Q

A
initiate resorption of overlying bone
creates eruption pathway via connective tissue degradation
promotes alveolar bone growth
