1
Q

This is of special importance in young individuals where skeletal secondary sexual characters have not yet developed. Studies show significant differences between male and female permanent and deciduous tooth crown dimension. One is reminded that tooth size or odontometrics, is under considerable influence of the environment. Such measurements are, therefore, population specific, and do not apply to the world at large.

NATURE OF THE OVERLYING TISSUE

A

a. Soft Tissue Impaction

23
Q

Refers to a significant wear of tooth structure caused by various factors. This occurs on the occlusal surface as well as the proximal surface (sides of the teeth that touch each other)
Can lead to several dental issues

A

GROSS ATTRITION

24
Q

a condition characterized by excessive tooth grinding and clenching. This can occur in day or night (sleep bruxism). Constant friction and pressure from grinding can lead to wear and tear.
Malocclusion: Malalignment of teeth. Can result in abnormal contacts and forces during chewing resulting to uneven wear and tear.

A

Bruxisim

25
Q

Can result in abnormal contacts and forces during chewing resulting to uneven wear and tear.

A

Malalignment of teeth

26
Q

such as chewing hard objects or using teeth as a tool

A

Abrasive habits

27
Q

Frequent consumption off acidic foods and beverages can erode enamel layer making teeth susceptible to wear and tear.

A

A

Anodontia

31
Q
  • a rare genetic disorder causing numerous polyps in the colon and rectum

To replace teeth in same quadrant or in both quadrants of the same arch

As a temporary replacement for missing teeth in a child

To replace missing teeth for patients who do not want a fixed bridge or implants

Q

Patient is edentulous
Remaining teeth cannot be saved and no alternatives are available
Patient refuses alternative treatment recommendations
