Q

What happens in the 7th, 8th and 9th week?

A
  • in the 7th week, the tongue is meant to drop down to allow the shelves to fuse correctly
  • the primary palate is formed from the frontonasal processes, forming the premaxilla and fusing with the maxillary processes posteriorly
  • the secondary palate is formed by fusing of the right and left palatal shelves of the maxilla
  • failure of these processes to fuse gives rise to cleft lip/alveolus/palate

Q

What cartilage is the mandible made from?

A
  • meckel’s cartilage forms the basis of the mandible as well as the structures of the inner ear
  • therefore aberrations of the mandible can therefore lead to hearing difficulties and should be considered when faced with poorly developed mandible

Q

What is Treacher Collins syndrome?

A

Problem with the first pharyngeal arch

Q

Where can clefts affect?

A
  • the lip, alveolus and palate. If it affects the alveolus, the child may not have the full complement of teeth as the bone has not fused
  • clefts of the mandible and face are very rare

Q

How does the mandible join and as a result which tooth is most likely to be missing?

A
  • the mandible joins along the symphisis with left and right sides coming together. If there is a disruption in the union, it may cause absence of lower anterior 1

Q

How does the maxilla join and as a result which tooth is most likely to be missing?

A
  • the premaxilla joins the posterior maxilla at a region where the lateral incisors are
  • so lateral incisor most likely to be missing if there is disruption in the union

Q

What are morphogenetic fields?

A
  • the arch is divided into segments
  • the most anterior tooth in each segment is the key tooth, most stable
  • eg, molars=6, premolars=4, anterior=1
  • stability is in terms of reliable size and occurence
  • this theory supports common patterns of hypodontia

27
Q

How does the mandible and maxilla grow?

A

In a downwards and forwards direction

28
Q

When does the cranial base grow till and how?

A
  • cranial base continues to enlarge at spheno-occipital synchrondosis
  • till 15 years
  • through endochrondral ossification
29
Q

How does the maxilla grow?

A

By intramembranous ossification by enlargement of the sinuses

30
Q

How does the mandible grow?

A

By intramembranous ossification as a result of muscle action and tooth development

31
Q

What does a diolocephalic head shape form?

A
  • face which is longer and thinner
  • associated with high mandibular plane angle
32
Q

What does brachycephalic head shape form?

A
  • rounder faces more like a child
33
Q

What is plagiocephaly?

A

Due to the result of premature fusion of one side of the cranium, giving lopsided growth

34
Q
A
35
Q

What are features of the primary occlusion?

A
  • develops continuously from 7 to 29 months
  • spaced incisors
  • anthropoid spaces between b’s and c’s

Q

What is the definition of the leeway space?

A

the difference between the sum of the mesiodistal crown widths of the primary canines and molars and that of their successors, the permanent canines and premolars.
- the difference in width between the distal aspect of E and mesial aspect of CW
