what are the 3 stages of tooth development?
|
- bud stage
- cap stage - bell stage |
|
What happens in the cap stage?
|
the round form starts to invert and there is the appearance of a cap = cap stage
|
|
How are buds formed?
|
epithelial thickening (dental lamina) starts at 6-8 weeks of fetal development and the lamina differentiates into tooth buds
|
|
how do buds appear in the bud stage?
|
round or ovoid
|
|
what happens in the bell stage?
|
-concavity deepens = bell stage
-most of enamel and coronal dentin laid down; DEJ identifiable -connection w/ dental lamina disintegrates permanent tooth bud starts forming |
|
bell stage ends with what?
|
formation of CE line
|
|
enamel organ differentiates into hertwig's sheath, which forms the what?
|
root structure
|
|
when the root is completed what happens to the apical foramen?
|
it is constricted
|
|
root is completed in deciduous teeth at about age _____
|
3, one year from eruption to completion
|
|
active eruption
|
entry of tooth into oral cavity until contact w/ opposing tooth
|
|
passive eruption
|
continuing adaptation of tooth to changing occlusal relationships, continues throughout life
|
|
Deciduous eruption sequence
|
1. central incisors
2. lateral incisors 3. 1st molars 4. canines 5. 2nd molars *mandibular precedes maxillary |
|
permanent anteriors develop ________ to primary roots
|
lingual
|
|
premolars develop w/in ______ of primary molars
|
root furcations
|
|
when do the mandible/maxilla start growth spurt?
|
age 5 to make room for the first permanent molars that erupt at age 6
|
|
which teeth are the cornerstones in permanent occlusion
|
1st molars
|
|
what are the ages of mixed dentition?
|
6-12 yrs old
|
|
ankylosis
|
root is fused to bone, disrupts resorption and exfoliation - especially if permanent tooth bud does not form
|
|
describe resorption process
|
starts at least 1 yr prior to exfoliation; permanent teeth start resorption of primary roots (osteoclastic process) b/c of the pressure of permanent teeth coming in
|
|
describe exfoliation
|
-root structure mostly resorbed, tooth is loose
-mandibular teeth precede maxillary except: primary 2nd molars all 4 are lost about same time (11-12 yrs) |
|
deciduous dentition is important in maintaining what?
|
arch space for permanent dentition
|
|
how many deciduous teeth and what is the dental formula?
|
20 (A-T); I 2/2 C 1/1 M 2/2
|
|
primary dentition crowns are ______ M-D relative to height and _______ relative to total tooth length
|
wider; shorter
|
|
in primary dentition the facial and lingual HOC are closer to the ________
|
cervical line
|
|
primary crowns exhibit more _____ convexity
|
F and L
|
|
primary crowns are more constricted ______ and ______ in F-L dimensions
|
cervically and occlusally
|
|
there is a presence of a __________ on facials of all primary teeth and linguals of anteriors
|
cervical ridge
|
|
do primary teeth or permanent teeth have fewer anomalies and more consistent shapes?
|
primary
|
|
do primary or permanent teeth have longer roots relative to crown height?
|
primary, but primary roots are smaller in other dimensions
|
|
T or F apices of anterior roots are facially inclined
|
T
|
|
to provide more space for permanent buds, molar roots are ________
|
flared
|
|
Do primary roots have root trunks?
|
no, branching occurs close to crown
|
