53
Q

59
Q

What is tooth mousse and why might some people prefer it?

A

CPP-ACP: a calcium phosphate topical cream - it does not contain fluoride

60
Q

What are the benefits of tooth mousse?

A

good for use of white spot lesions in ortho; reduces sensitivity; and supposedly increases mineralisation

61
Q

What is the prevelance of hypodontia?

A

less than 1% in primary dentition and 3-6% in permanent dentition

62
Q

What are the most common missing teeth (in order)? (4)

A

in order: 8s, lower 5s, upper 2s, upper 5s

63
Q

What are the main syndromes linked with hypodontia?(3)

  • ectodermal dysplasia
  • mutations in the MSX1 gene
64
Q

What is the treatment for hypodontia?

A

space closure or space opening (for prosthesis) - refer/discuss with ortho, paeds and restorative specialists

65
Q

What are the four different types of supernumerary teeth?

A
  • mesiodens (midline)

  • conical
  • tuberculate (more than one cusp)
66
Q

What are the distinctive dental features of cleidocranial dysostosis? (3)

70
Q

What is the treatment for double teeth?

fissure sealants to prevent caries in the abnormal anatomy

a tooth within a tooth - when a localised area of the crown is folded inwards

A

can result in an area of caries and is difficult to treat endodontically

73
Q

What are the simplest classifications of amelogenesis imperfecta?(2)

A

1:700-4000

75
Q

What are the two main management options for amelogenesis imperfecta?

  • exposure of dentine
  • poor OH
  • gingivitis
  • caries
83
Q

What is the main treatment for dentinogenesis imperfecta in molars?

A

Cast restorations on occlusal surfaces as it protects from wear

84
Q

What is the main treatment for dentinogenesis imperfecta in anteriors?

A

veneers - aesthetics and protects from wear

85
Q

What is Turner’s tooth?

A

an underdevelopment in enamel from a disturbance in the enamel and dentine formation (allegedly infection around deciduous tooth and effects successional tooth)

86
Q

What is molar-incisor hypomineralisation?

A

A qualitative defect of the enamel due to lack of mineralisation during development
