Quiz 1 Review Flashcards
What is the CEJ? (Crown vs. Root)
- “The Cementoenamel Junction”
- Cervical Line
- Junction/Separation between the crown & root
- Cementum covers the root
- Enamel covers the crown
- Junction of the cementum & enamel
What are Lingual Height Contours?
On the lingual surfaces of posterior teeth, the raised or convex contours are NOT called ridges but rather “Lingual Height of Contour”
These contours on the lingual surface are NOT in the ?
Cervical part of the crown
What are Lingual Fossae on Canines?
These are irregular depressions or concavities that are unique to the lingual surfaces of canines.
What does the Lingual Fossae divide into?
They divide the lingual fossa of canines into separate mesiolingual and distolingual fossae.
What is a Supplemental (Secondary) Groove
A line on the surface of a posterior tooth that does NOT divide primary portions of a tooth (i.e cusps)
Why will a supplemental groove usually not be named?
Because they may not always consistently appear on the surface of a posterior tooth
Many times, supplemental groove will ______________
separate triangular ridges from cuspal ridges on the SAME cusp
If present supplemental grooves are named according to….?
Their location
What tooth is the LAST “primary” tooth to erupt ?
The MAXILLARY 2nd molar
-Tooth A, J
What is the Eruption time for the Maxillary 2nd molar?
29 months
What tooth is the FIRST “primary” tooth to erupt ?
The MANDIBULAR 1st incisor
-Tooth P,O
What is the Eruption time for the Mandibular 1st incisor?
8 months
At 20 months of age which teeth have not emerged into the oral cavity?
Primary 2nd molars
What is the Transitional “Mixed” Dentition period?
This period beings with the emergence & eruption of the Permanent Mandibular 1st Molar at age 6
When does the “ Mixed Dentition Period” end?
With the loss of the last primary tooth, either the maxillary canine (LESS LIKELY) or usually the maxillary second molar at age 11-12
What are the Permanent 1st Molars guided by?
They are guided by and emerge distal(behind) or posterior to the Primary 2nd Molars
When do the Permanent teeth begin their eruptive movements ?
They do not being until AFTER the CROWN is FORMED
What may the premature loss of Primary teeth lead to?
A lack of space for the Permanent dentition
What will have an adverse effect on the eruption of the permanent dentition?
Dental neglect, congenital absence, or anomalies
What is the Order of Eruption of Maxillary Permanent Canine Teeth? # 6, 11
The maxillary canines lag in eruption compared to the remaining maxillary anterior teeth and maxillary premolars
***Arch order 6
At Eight Years of Age the patient is________________?
- Out of the “early” ugly ducking stage
- The dentition “APPEARS” normal to parents
- (Premanent 2nd molars are not present, canines, and both premolars)
What is Isognathous?
Equal-jawed or symmetrical arch alignment
What is Anisognathous?
Unequal-jawed or asymmetrical arch alignment
Humans have an arch alignment that is _________?
Considered “Partially isognathous”
Where is the Anterior Transverse Ridge exhibited only on?
What does it Obliterate?
Permanent Maxillary Molars
and is confluent with the MESIAL MARGINAL RIDGE, obliterating much of the medial triangular fossa
