Q

5 effects of Formocresol (Berry)

A
  • bactericidal effect

99
Q

4 requirements of a successful pulpotomy (Berry)

A
  • eliminate infection in tooth
  • Tooth preserved in healthy, non-pathogenic condition

  • Normal resorption of primary tooth and eruption of permanent successor
100
Q

Removal of the tissue from the coronal pulp chamber and the root canals (Berry)

A

Pulpectomy

101
Q

When does calcification of primary teeth begin(Piscitelli)

A

~3.5-4 months in utero

102
Q

General eruption of the primary teeth (Piscitelli)

A

primary teeth erupt in typical sequence starting ~6-7mo (mand central) and ending at 26 months (max 2nd molar)

103
Q

Which dentition shows more variability, primary or permanent (Piscitelli)

A

permanent

104
Q

2 things to which primary occlusion adapts to (Piscitelli)

A
  • skeletal growth

- occlusal wear

105
Q

Which teeth have more proprioception, primary or permanent (Piscitelli)

A

permanent

106
Q

of the 3 planes of growth of the mouth, which is the first to stop: A-P, Vertical, Transverse

A

Transverse (~12 y.o)

107
Q

which is the 2nd plane of growth to stop growing: A-P, Vertical, Transverse

A

Vertical

108
Q

Which plane of growth continues throughout life (Piscitelli)

A

A-P

109
Q

Who are more advanced at all stages of dental calcification and development, girls or boys(Piscitelli)

A

girls

110
Q

Teeth do no begin to move occlusally until… (Piscitelli)

A

Crown form is completed

111
Q

Are caries genetic (Piscitelli)

A

no

112
Q

What largely determines tooth size (Piscitelli)

A

genetics

113
Q

Which are rarer supernumerary teeth or congenitally missing teeth (Piscitelli)

A

Supernumeraries

114
Q

Supernumerary teeth are more common in males or females (Piscitelli)

A

males

115
Q

Dental arch width changes are timed more to dental development or skeletal growth (Piscitelli)

A

Dental development

116
Q

When does dental arch circumference decrease (Piscitelli)

A

during late transitional and early permanent dentition

117
Q

Why does dental arch circumference diminish as we get our permanent teeth (Piscitelli)

A

because the leeway space between C,D,E is taken up as 3,4,5, which are wider than their predecessors erupt into that space

118
Q

What is the most important baby tooth and why (Piscitelli)

A

primary 2nd molars (AJ & KT, or the E’s in the Palmar notation). Distal Surface of primary 2nd molars determine initial permanent molar (3,14,19,30) occlusion

119
Q

What can happen if the E’s (Primary Second Molars) are lost early (Piscitelli)

A

Permanent 1st molars will tip mesially and block out permanent 2nd bicuspids

120
Q

Tooth that shows the greatest variability in development (Piscitelli)

A

3rd molars

121
Q

What is the sequence for Primary teeth calcification and times (Piscitelli)

When do primary teeth roots complete (Piscitelli)

A

18 mos post eruption

A

6-8

131
Q

Which is more important: the timing of the eruption or the sequence of eruption (Piscitelli)

sequence because it helps determine tooth position in the arch

132

Why does Early Childhood Caries characteristically effect A, B, D, but skip the C’s (Palmer notation) (Piscitelli)

A

A,B,D erupt before C so exposed longer to insults

spaced anteriors

147
Q

Baume Type II (Piscitelli)

A

no space between anteriors

148
Q

The wide spaces mesial to the maxillary canines and distal to the mandibular canines (Piscitelli)

A

primate space

149
Q

What is the primate space important for (Piscitelli)

A

canine and bicuspid eruption

150
Q

What goes into the primate space of the opposing arch in primary occlusion (Piscitelli)

A

primary cuspid tips go into the primate space of the opposing arch

151
Q

The total interdental spacing between primary teeth ________(decreases/increases) continually with age (Piscitelli)

A

decreases due to loss of Leeway space

152
Q

Primary dentition Angle Classes of occlusion can be measured this way (Piscitelli)

A

primary molar terminal plane

153
Q

Flush Terminal plane indicates what (Piscitelli)

A

the distal surface of the maxillary and mandibular 2nd molars are in line (most likely becomes Angle Class I)

154
Q

Mesial Terminal Plane or Mesial Step means what (Piscitelli)

A

Distal of Max Molar is distal to the distal of the mand molar (if draw staircase down from distal of Max molar to the distal of the Mand Molar, the step would point mesial)(Most likely becomes Angle Class I)

155
Q

Distal Terminal Plane or Distal Step means what (Piscitelli)

A

Distal of Max Molar is mesial to distal of Mand Molar (if drew staircase down from distal of Max molar to distal of Mand molar the step would go distal)(Most likely becomes Angle Class II)

156
Q

Piscitelli says what Terminal Plane is most common (60%)

A

Mesial Step

157
Q

Most common tooth to get Turner’s tooth and why (Piscitelli)

A

2nd premolar because E was sick

158
Q

How do 1st perm molars erupt (Piscitelli)

A

mand erupt mesial and rotate distal in to occlusion guided by distal of Mand E, Max erupt distal and swing mesial into occlusion stopped by distal Max E

159
Q

If the E (Palmer notation) is missing what 2 things will happen to the erupting Permanent 1st molar (Piscitelli)

A

will Tip mesial . anytime there is tipping there is Extrusion

160
Q

What is the angle of primary incisors and their overbite/overjet (Piscitelli)

A

upright with little overbite or overjet

161
Q

Permanent incisors angled how (Piscitelli)

A

Labial angulation w/ overbite and overjet

162
Q

Leeway space of Nance (Piscitelli)

A

combined M-D width of deciduous canines and molars (C,D,E) differ from those of permanent canines and molars

163
Q

How much Leeway space per each side maxillary arch and total Leeway Space of Nance for Maxilla(Piscitelli)

A
  1. 9mm/half arch

1. 8 mm total Leeway Maxillary Arch

164
Q

How much Leeway space per each side mandibular arch and total Leeway Space of Nance for Mandible(Piscitelli)

A
  1. 7 mm/ half arch

3. 4 mm total Leeway Mandibular Arch

165
Q

2 things that close Primate space(Piscitelli)

A

Eruption permanent incisors

Eruption permanent molars

166
Q

Why does the intercanine width change with the eruption of the mandibular incisors (Piscitelli)

A

Mand canines move distal into their primate space increasing slightly their intercanine width

167
Q

If incisors erupt lingual to their deciduous predecessors, should anything be done, and what natural force will help push them into occlusion (Piscitelli)

A

don’t do anything. Tongue will push permanents labially

168
Q

What is a way to determine if a canine will be impacted (Piscitelli)

A

if cuspid overlaps lateral on the radiograph, 80% chance cuspid will be impacted (b/c it is supposed to guide into place along distal root surface of lateral)

169
Q

If have primate space and a flush terminal plane, what angle class will the permanent molar erupt into and how (Piscitelli)

A

eruptive force of permanent mand molar forces mandibular space closeds allowing for Class I = Early Mesial Shift

170
Q

How does a permanent molar get into Class I occlusion if there is no primate space and the primary occlusion was Flush Terminal Plane (Piscitelli)

A

Late Mesial Shift = done when the E exfoliates from the mandible before the maxilla allowing that permanent first to move mesial to Class I

171
Q

What are the width changes that occur between 6-13 years as the child goes from primary to mixed dentition to early permanent dentition (Piscitelli)

A

intercanine width increases

Interarch width decreases

172
Q

If there is a problem in the initiation of a tooth, what will be the clinical manifestation (Piscitelli)

A

problems in tooth number (Hyper/hypodontia)

173
