Part 1 Shuffled Flashcards
Last tooth to erupt in primary teeth
Maxillary primary 2nd molar
Except for third molars, which tooth exhibits the most deviation in crown morphology
Max lateral
Which portion of the tooth is the most prominent cervical ridge
Facial cervical ridge of primary mand. 1st molar
Which are less mineralized and more wornPrimary or Permanent teeth
Primary
What results from delayed resorption of primary incisors
lingual eruption of permanent incisors(shark teeth)
Smallest crown dimensions of any tooth
mand centrals
Compare measurements of Inciso-cervical vs Mesio-distal dimensions of max central incisor
Nearly identical
The maxillary 1st primary molar has roots that resemble which tooth
Permanent maxillary molar
In the cross section of a mandibular canine root at the CEJ, what is the shape and where is it wider
Ovoid shapewider mesio-distally at the labial end
Nature of distal contact of max lateral incisor
-furthest cervical contact of any incisor-centered both inciso-cervically and facio-lingually
A main difference in primary molar roots from permanent
more divergent roots
Where are the most prominent marginal ridges of all anterior teeth found
Max lateral
Facial view of primary mandibular 1st molar, the CEJ is most apical where
on mesial thirddips down apically here
What anatomical feature of Max lateral incisor complicates root planning
disto-lingual groove
The difference in space from primary to permanent dentition in the arch
2-4 mm
Teeth whose function is primarily for biting
Max central incisors
Compare max and mand canine proximal contact areas
mandibular canine contacts are more incisal than max-think of mand incisors, all even, all high
The maxillary 1st primary molar crown resembles what tooth
a permanent premolar
Outline shape of max canine from facial view
pentagonal
The anterior tooth that most likely would demonstrate lingual pit caries
Max Lateral
Usual pattern of eruption for primary teethadditional notesexception to rule
centrals, laterals, 1st molars, canines, 2nd molarsfront to back except canineLowers before uppers except laterals
Cusp tip of primary canine off set to which direction
distal
What are the only maxillary teeth that occlude with only one opposing toothonly mandibular teeth that occlude with only one tooth
Max third molarsMand central incisors
Furthest cervical contact of any incisor found where
Distal contact of max lateral incisor
Nature of distal contact of max canine
It is centered
mnemonic for contacts of max anterior teeth, starting at central
IJ JM JMI Just Jacked Michael Jackson’s MopedI - incisalJ - junction of incisal and middleM - middle
The tooth that is positioned most nearly to the vertical axis when viewed from a proximal view
Max canine
The direction of primary (deciduous) enamel rods in cervical third
occlusal directionouter (or opposite) direction for permanent enamel rods
Which incisal embrasure is largerbetween max centrals or between central and lateral
central and lateral
What’s up with the fossa of primary mandibular 1st molar
Exhibits distal triangular fossa - central fossa displaced to distalsome call it distal or main fossa rather than central
Sharpest set of incisal angles (mesial and distal)
mand central
Primate space is where on maxillary primary dentition
between lateral and canine
The convexity of mandibular canine
continuous convex facial surface from incisal to apical endcontinuous C shape from crown tip to root apex
Tooth with straightest mesial alignment of crown to root
Mand canine
Other than 3rd molars, which tooth is most congenitally missing
Max lateral incisor
Cervical third of primary central incisors exhibit what
prominent cervical ridges facially and linguallymax central?
Mandibular canine incisal edge is what direction from long axis
lingualsee more of the facial aspect when viewing from occlusalopposite from max canine
Cervical ridge of max 1st primary molar most prominent where
