Q

According to Easley J, Dixon PM, Reardon RJ. Orthodontic correction of overjet/overbite (‘parrot mouth’) in 73 foals (1999-2013)

Which lines in the photo below represent overbite and overjet? Describe the difference.

A

AB Overjet

CD overbite

overjet is how far the labial surface is rostral to where it should be (i.e. in line with labial surface of the mandibular incisors.)

Overbite is how far the occlusal surface is from where it should be (i.e. occluding with the mandibular incisors)

Q

According to Suske A, Poschke A, Schrock P, Kirschner S, Brockmann M, Staszyk C.

Infundibula of equine maxillary cheek teeth. Part 1: Development, blood supply and infundibular cementogenesis.

Why is the mesial infundibulum more prone to incomplete cementogenesis?

A

central artery supplying bloodflow for genetation of cementum is destroyed at eruption. lateral arteries located more coronally, and destroyed soon after eruption for mesial infundibulum, wheras the distal infundibulum has a more apically located artery which persists for longer after eruption.
