primary dentition Flashcards
order the eruption sequence of primary dentition
lateral incisors
central incisor
Second molars
canines
primary molars
Central incisors
Lateral incisors
First molars (“One year molars”)
Canines
Second molars (“Two year molars”)
very similar in form to permanent counterparts, but smaller and less pronounced morphologic features
incisor
tf incisors primary teeth have no mammelons
T
crown of incisors (primary)
appear squatted
tf primary incisors onlhave buccal cervical ridges
F
buccal and cervical ridges
incisor primary teeth
mesial CEJ more incisally positioned than distal
roots of incisor(primary teeth)
narrow and pointed
—- angle of lower lateral incisor (primary) quite rounded
DI angle of lower lateral incisor (primary) quite rounded
diamond shaped crown4
– maxillary canine primary teeth
diff between maxillary canine and permanent max canine
max canine
has longer mesial cusp ridge (slope) than distal slope
maxillary canine (primary) has marked —- and —- cervical bulges
maxillary canine has marked facial and lingual cervical bulges
arrow-shaped crown
primary mandibular canine
mandib canine(primary tooth)
mandibular canine has shorter mesial slope than distal slope
more slender with less prominent marginal ridges on lingual aspect
primary mandib canine
basically resembles maxillary premolar
max 1st molar
major cusps of max 1st molar
MB and Ml
DB and DL cusps
insig in size of max first molar
largest cusp of max 1st molar
MB
tf max 1st molar crown is more wide occlusocervically than mesiodistally
F
crown wider mesiodistally than occlusocervically
primary max 1st molar
prominent —– and —– cervical heights of contour (bulges)
prominent B & L cervical heights of contour (bulges)
slender and flared
roots of max 1st molar
how many roots are on primary 1st molar
3
tf primary 1st molar has a huge root trunk
F
small root trunk
morphologically identical to permanent maxillary 1st molar including cusp of Carabelli;
primary max 2nd molar
smaller and squatter than permanent maxillary 1st molar
primary maxillary 2nd molar
roots of primary max 2nd molar
more flared and slender
small rot trunk
prrimary max 2nd molar
primary max 2nd molar
greatest faciolingual diameter of all primary teeth
tf primary max 2nd molar is smaller than primary 1st molar
f
larger than primary 1st molar
primary mandib 2nd molar
identical to permanent mandibular 1st molar
