  • Front
  • Back
What develops from the dental lamina?
All primary teeth and the first permanent molars
Succedaneous teeth develop from what?
Primary tooth buds
What causes congenital absence of teeth?
Lack of initiation or arrest of proliferative cells
Continued budding of what causes supernumerary teeth?
Enamel organ
Define eruption
Crown formation is complete
What is emergence and when does it occur?
Appearance of a tooth in the oral cavity (typically called "eruption")

It occurs when the root is 3/4 developed.
How long does it take from crown completion to full occlusion in permanent teeth?
5 years

So about the same as dental school.
There is evidence of mineralization of how many teeth at birth?
24

20 primary teeth + four permanent 1st molars
Which teeth show germ formation before birth?
Incisors
Canines
Permanent 1st molars
True/False: environmental factors affecting the onset of menarche also change the age of emergence of some teeth.
False.
Extraction of primary teeth will (enhance/delay) eruption of permanent teeth?
Either, before age 5 delays eruption
What is the most desirable eruption pattern of permanent teeth?
1M → C → L → 1P → 2P → K9 → 2M
Late K9 eruption is bad for which gender?
Boys - lost space
What is always the safest tooth to extract, orthodontically speaking?
Premolars

Canines are the WORST!
What does CA = 11-5 mean?
Chronological Age:

11 years, 5 months
Permanent incisors erupt B or L?
Lingual, baby
A lack of developmental __ is a predictor of future crowding.
Developmental spaces
What erupts at DA (dental age) 6?
Mand centrals & 1st molars
What erupts at DA (dental age) 7?
Max centrals & Mand laterals
What erupts at DA (dental age) 8?
Max laterals
What erupts at DA (dental age) 9?
Nothing! Quiescent period lasting 2-3 years, roots develop, though.

(largely mandibular)
What erupts at DA (dental age) 11?
Mand premolars, Max 1st pre
What erupts at DA (dental age) 12?
Anything that hasn't erupted yet will erupt now.

God, that sounds so wrong! It's not, though, seriously.
What is leeway space?
A bit of space (2.5mm mand, 1.5mm max) we can use to relieve crowding.

What are the primate spaces?
"in the primary dentition, a space mesial to the maxillary primary canines and distal to the mandibular primary canines"

3-3 (intercanine) width is established by what age?
8
Primary incisors procline. Why?
Tongue activity.
What is proclination?
Labial movement
What device can a DDS place that will help maintain leeway space for the poor, defenseless orthodontist?
Fixed Lingual Arch
What is Tx for eruption of Mand incisors with crowding?
Nothing! They will often fix themselves.
A distal step (primary) leads to what?
Class II or end-to-end (also CII)

Refer!
What do terms like flush, distal and mesial step refer to?
Terminal Plane Relationships
At what stage does the mandible primarily change?
Adolescence
When do dentofacial changes stop occurring?
When changes like earthworms eating your eyeballs start occurring...

DEATH!!
When does most eruption occur?
At night
What causes Mand incisal crowding post adolescence?
Incisors retrocline
True/False: 3rds do not play a role in crowding.
True!
What are the three stages of tooth development?
Bud, Cap and Bell!

Bud stage - initiation
Cap stage - proliferation
Bell stage - histo / morphodifferentiation
