primate spacing
human life begins with an embryo which has 3 layers, what are the layers?
ectoderm
mesoderm
endoderm
ectoderm
forms covering of the body and also the lining of the oral cavity
mesoderm
the skeletal & muscular systems as well as the cementum, dentin and pulp of the tooth
endoderm
lining of the internal organs
what happens during the 3rd week of fetal life?
the face begins to develop
at one end of the embryo there is an invagination of the ectoderm forming the stomodeum
stomodeum
"primitive mouth"
forms at one end of the embryo
forms from ectoderm
later becomes the oral & nasal cavities
primitive mouth is..
beneath it is...
is lined with ectoderm
becomes oral epithelium

beneath this is the mesenchyme developed from mesoderm which becomes connective tissue
what happens between the 5th &6th week in utero?
the first sign of tooth development is evident
teeth are formed from the ectoderm and mesoderm
formation of teeth
formation of teeth begins the 5th or 6th week in utero with the formation of primary mandibular anterior teeth followed by primary maxillary anterior teeth

and continues posteriorly
odontogenesis
origin of tooth
initiation- bud stage
1st stage, odontogenesis
initiation takes place
10 buds= 10 teeth
initiation
when the tooth begins formation from the dental lamina
dental lamina
a growth from the oral epithelium that gives rise to the tooth budss
molar development
the last 3 molars in each quadrant develop behind the primary dentition

6- year molar begins developing at birth
12-year molar begins developing when the baby is 6 months old
3rd molars (wisdom teeth) start when the child is about 5 years old
proliferation- cap stage
-the bud of the tooth grows and changes shape
-primary embryonic ectoderm layer matures into the enamel of the developing tooth
-process of proliferation, histodifferentiation, morphodifferentiation
-during this process the primary embryonic mesoderm layer develops into connective tissue (mesenchyme tissue)
-connective tissue forms a dental sac & further matures into dentin, cementum, and pulp of the tooth
proliferation
cells multiply
histodifferentiation
cells develop into different tissues
morphodifferentiation
the cells begin to outline the future shape of the developing organ
morphodifferentiation/ histodifferentation- bell stage
further specialization of the cells (histodifferentation)
-inner epithelium of the enamel organ becomes
ameloblasts (enamel forming cells)
-peripheral cells become odontoblasts (cells that form dentin)
-cementoblasts (cementum forming cells) form from the dental sac
continues morphodifferentiation
define:
1.amenoblasts
2.odontoblasts
3.cementoblasts
1. enamel forming cells
2. dentin forming cells
3. cementum forming cells
apposition- maturation state
-odontogenesis reaches completion
-tissues of enamel, dentin and cementum are formed in layers and fused together
-process of depositing calcium salts and other minerals in the tooth takes place during apposition (calcification)
-eruption
-attrition
name the stages of tooth development in order
1. initiation (bud stage)
2. proliferation (cap stage)
3. histodifferentiation (bell stage)
4. morphodifferentiation
5. apposition (maturation stage)
6. calcification
7. eruption
8. attrition
eruption
the movement of the tooth from its position within the jaw to its position in the oral cavity

passive & active
active eruption
the crown of the tooth 1st moves from within the jaw into the oral cavity

begins when the crown of the tooth is complete and a portion of the root has started to form
how long does the entire process of permanent tooth development take from initiation to completion
10 years

1 1/2 - 3 years for completion of a deciduous root
3 years after eruption for the completion of a permanent root
passive eruption
increase in the length of the clinical crown caused by gingival recession

wear from use or trauma causing attrition or breakdown on the periodontium
anomaly
deviation in the development of the teeth
supernumerary tooth
extra tooth that has formed
which embryonic layer forms the teeth
mesoderm
the primitive mouth begins formation at approximately
3 weeks in utero
the enamel organ forms during
morphodifferentiation
the final stage of tooth formation is
apposition
the process whereby the tooth moves into the oral cavity until it meets its antagonist is:
active eruption
occlusion
occurs when the maxillary and mandibular teeth contact each other in any functional relationship

also includes areas such as growth and development of the entire masticatory system
masticatory system
includes the teeth and surrounding structures, jaws, temporomandibular joint (TMJ), muscles,lip, tongue, and related nerves and blood vessels
what determines the final occlusal relationship of the permanent dentition
influence of hereditary and environmental factors such as trauma, oral habits or faulty dental treatment
ideal occlusion
complete harmonious relationship of the teeth, as well as other structures involved in the masticatory system
interdigitation
intercusp relationship
how are the teeth when their in ideal position
-max teeth facially overlap the mandibular teeth by 1/3
-each max tooth has a distal relationship to its mandibular counterpart by the distance of about 1/2 a tooth
-lingual cusps of max post teeth occlude in specific fossae of man teeth
normal occlusion
conforms closely to an ideal occlusal relationship but involves some variations (considered optimum if functional comfort & alignment)

each tooth has appropriate opposing contact
what is the biting force of the posterior teeth
100-170 lbs
what can a malpositioned tooth do?
cause improper distribution of stress, resulting in a breakdown of the periodontium or TMJ pathology
in ideal occlusion and normal occlusion what determines its position?
the 1st permanent molars are considered the key to occlusion, the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary 1st molar rests in the mesiobcuccal groove of the mandibular 1st molar
malocclusion
any deviation from the ideal position (minor or large)
describe Dr.Angles classification
relates to the anterior-posterior or mesiodistal deviations in relation to the 1st molar ("key" to occlusion)

3 classes: neutrocclusion, distocclusion, mesiocclusion
openbite
existing space between the mandibular and maxillary teeth can be either anterior or posterior (unilateral or bilateral)
overbite
deep vertical overlap of the maxillary teeth onto the mandibular teeth that exceeds the normal, or 1/3 the depth of the mandibular incisors
overjet
horizontal overlap creating a protrusion or space between the labial surface of the mandibular incisors and the lingual surface of the maxillary incisors
crossbite
a facially positioned mandibular tooth or teeth which can be either anterior or posterior (buccal/lingual)
edge to edge (end to end)
a contacting of the incisal edges or cusp tips rather than an interdigitation of cusp and fossae (actually a crossbite)
underjet
horizontal relationship where the maxillary anteriors are lingual to the mandibular anteriors
occlusal deviations involving individual teeth are?
