THE FINAL COUNTDOWN-Part I (Primary's and Rando's) Flashcards
Which anatomy is constructed first: positive or negative?
Positive (convex/raised) constructed first, then displays negative anatomy
What are type of ridges are ONLY found on posterior teeth and extend from a cusp tip to the central part of the occlusial surface?
Triangular Ridges
When does CALCIFICATION of PRIMARY teeth begin?
13-16 weeks in utero!
What is the order of calcification of the primary teeth? FOCUS especially on first and last!
(FIRST)Central Incisors>(JUMP)>1st molar>Lateral Incisor>Canine>2nd Molar (LAST)
When have all the primary teeth at least initiated calcification?
18-20 weeks in utero
Which primary teeth form from only ONE center of calcification (1 lobe)? Are there mamelons present? Are there developmental depressions evident?
Primary Anteriors….NO mamelons…NO developmental depressions evident
Speaking of calcification: Which Permanent teeth are initiating calcification from birth to 1 year of age? (1st Class)
Don’t worry too much about order: 1st Molars–>Centrals—>Canines–>Laterals
Which “group 2” permanent teeth are calcifying from 2 to 4 years of age?
PreMolars and Second Molars
What are the Third and final group of permanent teeth to calcify? WHEN do they begin by?
the WIZZYs by 9 years of age
Concerning Mammalian Phylogenic Development: What classification of cusp forms do humans have? What shapes are involved?
Quad-Ri-Tuber-Cular Molars: 4 cusps in a rectangular or rhomboid form
Physiological Tooth Form: What are the only teeth in occlusion to only contact 1 opposing tooth? (Also, can you draw the occlusion chart???
Man Central Incisor and Max 3rd Molar
