Chapter 11 Flashcards
The first set of 20 primary teeth are called the ______________________.
Primary dentition or Deciduous dentition
The curvature that is formed by the maxillary and mandibular arches when they are in occlusion is _______________________.
Curve of Spee
_______________________ is an ideal mesiodistal relationship between the jaws and the dental arches.
Neutrocclusion
Occlusion that is deviated from a class I normal occlusion is ______________________.
malocclusion
The surfaces next to each other when teeth are adjacent in the same arch are referred to as __________________.
Proximal surfaces
The surface of the tooth toward the midline is the ____________________.
Mesial surface
The surface of tooth most distant from the midline is the _____________________.
Distal surface
The division of the root nearest the neck of the tooth is the ______________________.
Cervical third
If the crown of the tooth is divided lengthwise in a labial or buccolingual direction, consisting of the facial or buccal/labial third, middle third, and lingual third, it is called the ___________________.
Buccolingual division
The inclination of the teeth to extend facially beyond the normal overlap of the incisal edge of the maxillary incisors over the mandibular incisors is called _________________________.
Labioversion
Maximum contact between the occluding surfaces of the maxillary and mandibular teeth is _______ occlusion.
Centric
The junction of two walls in a cavity preparation is a _______________________.
Line angle
The natural teeth in the dental arch are referred to as the _________________________.
Dentition
The division of the root that is in the middle is the ________________.
Middle third
The contact of the teeth during biting and chewing movements is ____________________________.
Funtional occlusion
______________ is the residue from epithelial tissue on the crowns of newly erupted teeth that may become extrinsically stained.
Nasmyth’s membrane
The cross-arch curvature of the occlusal plane is the ______________________.
Curve of Wilson
There is a triangular space in a gingival direction between the proximal surfaces of two adjoining teeth in contact that is called a(n)____________________.
Embrasure
If the crown of the tooth is divided lengthwise in a labial or buccolingual direction, consisting of the facial or buccal/labial third, middle third, and lingual third, it is called the ___________________.
Buccolingual division
The lingual surface of maxillary teeth is referred to as the ___________________.
Palatal surface
Teeth are in ________________ when the teeth make contact during biting and chewing movements.
functional occlusion
The ________________ is the surface of the tooth distant from the midline.
distal
Which set(s) of teeth do humans have in their lifetimes?
permanent, primary and deciduous
Permanent teeth that replace primary teeth are ________________.
succedaneous
