Q

Primary teeth

A

Occur at different rates; may have some with root resorption while others are being formed; all of these rates may differ from child to child; usually completely formed by about 3 yrs; permanent dentition is usually completed by about age 25 if 3rd molars are counted; calcification begins in utero 13-16 weeks, and 18-20weeks all have begun to calcify; calcification of permanents is postnatal with formation 8-12 years to complete; primary crown formation continues after birth for the centrals for 3 months, 4 months for the laterals, 7 months for the first molars, 8 1/2 months for canine, 10 1/2 months for 2nd molar

Q

Clinical consideration

A

malformations; chronologies sometimes play role in form, color, arrangements; anomolies most often seen in maxillary laterals, third molars, and mandibular 2nd premolars, enamel hypoplasia (defect in thickness) develops during enamel formation, clefts, knowing characteristics of some malformations may help to find cause

Q

Root formation begins after the crown has formed

A

cementum forms as a covering on the root, is similar to bone, and is a thin layer, cementum of permanent teeth is much thicker than primary teeth, continued root formation aids in the tooth erupting and contacting opposites;

Q

Root resorption

A

In the absence of a permanent successor, the root may only partially resorb; failure to resorb may result in prolonged retention of primary tooth

classes (primary, mixed, permanent); prenatal begins as early as the 6th week, mandibular jaw is larger than maxilla, very little vertical dimension, primary development, no teeth visible at brith (rare exceptions), alveolar bone height increases to accommodate the increasing length of teeth

Q

Emergence of Primary teeth

A

Mandibular central 8 mo (6-10)
At about 13-16 mo all 8 of primary central incisors have erupted; 1st primary molars (16 mo), usually the maxillary emerge first; primary maxillary canines 19 mo (16-22), primary mandibular canines 20 mo (17-23); primary 2nd mandibular molars 27 mo (23-31); primary 2nd maxillary molars 29 mo (25-33) Primary dentition is completed by 30 months

Q

Mixed dentition

A

Begins with the emergence of mandibular 1st permanent molar and ends with the loss of the last primary tooth about 11-12 yrs. Permanent teeth do not begin eruptive movement until crown is completed; mandibular 1st molar is guided by the distal surface of the primary 2nd molar (molars are not succedaneous)

Q

Loss of primary teeth

A

Premature loss due to caries affect the development of permanent dentition; lack of dental knowledge, poor attitudes of parents leads to same attitudes and habits with adult dentition, leads to a lack of space for permanent teeth, “going to lose them anyway” mentality, don’t realize may be in use from 6mo-12 yrs; contribute to the health during the important developing years; may lead to abnormal occlusion, loss of arch length, and crowding

Q

Permanent dentition

A

All 32 teeth completed 18-25 years of age; 4 centers of formation (developmental lobes); injuries during dentinogenesis leads to anomalies ; sites of fusion can show developmental grooves; follicles of developing incisors and canines are lingual to deciduous roots (it will eventually move forward); follicles of premolars are in bifurcation of deciduous roots; incisors, canines, and premolars are succedaneous- they take the place of their primary predecessors

Q

Emerging sequence of permanent teeth

A

1st molars, central incisors (6-7) mandibular before maxillary, may erupt at same time as the mandibular 1st molar; mandibular lateral may erupt along with central incisor, before central incisors can take their place, the primary must be exfoliated, maxillary centrals, maxillary laterals about a year after centrals, first premolars at about 10 years, mandibular canines at about same time as first premolars, and second premolars during next year, maxillary canines, 2nd molars at about 12 yr, third molars about 17 or later

Q

dental pulp

A

CT with arteries, veins, lymphatic system, nerves; is large in primary teeth and young permanent, hence these teeth are more sensitive than teeth in older people, pulp gets smaller with age due to deposition of secondary dentin

Q

Cementoenamel Junction Types

A
  1. Enamel overlaps cementum (excess enamel)- happens in posterior teeth in bifurcation (fibers can’t attach) 2. end to end 3. gap exposing dentin (sensitive to decay) 4. cementum overlapping enamel 5. enamel extending into bifurcation of molars creates periodontal risks 6. periodontal fibers can’t embed into enamel; epithelium attachment

Q

Dental age

A

General rules is that when the last tooth has been completed, skeleton is near maturation; while teeth are forming, very little environmental influences will affect teeth; tetracycline is one exception- brown to bluish color; fluoride will make enamel less susceptible to caries; excess fluoride will result in fluorosis- white to brownish spots or bands; children should only be given a pea sized amount of fluoride paste under age 3

28
Q

Incisal aspect of permanent mandibular lateral incisor

30
Q

Deciduous Teeth general information

A

Order of eruption (incisors, first molars, canines, second molars with mandibular before maxillary), order of loss (exfoliation)( incisors, first molars, canines, second molars with mandibular before maxillary) high peak attack of caries is at about 13 when there are only about 5% of primaries left; primary teeth are completely finished for only 1-2 years before root resportion begins, 20 primary teeth (4 incisors, 2 canines, 4 molars per ARCH)

31
Q

Difference between primary and permanent teeth

A

Smaller in dimension, crowns are wider in comparison to length than permanent, roots of anteriors are narrower and longer comparatively, roots of molars are longer and flare more so that permanent can develop between them, cervical ridges of anteriors are more prominent- requiring more care in operative work, crown and roots at cervix are more slender, cervical ridges on molars are much more pronounced- especially on 1st molars, buccal and lingual surfaces are flatter above cervical line, less pigmented giving a whiter appearance (milk teeth)

32
