(mandibular: k-t)
dark red portion of lips
vermilion zone
sharp junction of the red zone and skin
vermilion border
demarcates lip and cheek
nasolabial groove
middle of upper lip
philtrum
slit-like space between teeth and lips/cheeks
oral vestibule
attachments of the lips and cheeks to the alveolus (bony area surrounding the teeth)
labial/buccal frena
what are the parts of the hard palate?
incisive papilla
rugae (tissue folds)
midline palatine raphe
What part of the palate is the uvula
soft palate
What are the 2 parts of the oropharynx

chronology of tooth development (5)
- time of ERUPTION of each tooth
- time crown begins to CALCIFY
- time crown is COMPLETELY calcified
- time of completion of ROOT DEVELOPMENT
- time of EXFOLIATION of DECIDUOUS teeth
Why is chronology important?
- assess patient’s DENTAL AGE
- dental procedures
- medications
- forensics
When is the first sign of tooth development?
6-7 weeks in utero
When do deciduous teeth begin to calcify?
13-20 weeks in utero
When have all deciduous teeth begun to calcify?
by 18-20 weeks in utero
When do deciduous teeth erupt?
6-30 months
emergence into the oral cavity
eruption
loss of deciduous tooth
exfoliation
