31
Periodontal ligament
fibrous attachment of the tooth cementum to alveolar bone
32
Gingiva
“gums”, fibrous tissue covered by a mucous membrane, covers alveolar process and
surrounds the necks of the teeth.
33
cusp
an elevation on the (enamel) , making up the occlusal
| surfaces. Only found on posterior teeth.
34
tubercle
a smaller elevation on some portion of the crown produced by an extra formation of
enamel
35
cingulum
the lingual lobe of an anterior tooth (incisor). It makes up the bulk of the cervical
third of the lingual surface.
36
ridge
linear elevation of enamel. Ridges are found on all teeth* and all teeth have 2 marginal
ridges**
37
Marginal ridges
rounded borders of the enamel that form the mesial
or distal margins of the occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth, as well as incisal surfaces of anterior
teeth (*remember, found on ALL teeth)
38
Triangular ridges
descend from the tips of the cusps of molars and premolars toward the
*central part of the *occlusal surfaces
39
transverse ridge
the union/ combination of *two triangular ridges (buccal and lingual side)
crossing transversely the surface of a posterior tooth
40
oblique ridge
a ridge crossing obliquely the occlusal surfaces of *maxillary 1st molars* as
elevation. Formed by the union of the triangular ridge of the DB cusp and ML cusp*
41
Cusp ridge:
every cusp have 4 ridges that extend from the cusp tip to 4 directions (mesial, distal,
buccal and lingual)
42
fossa
is an irregular depression or “concavity” or deep valley.
43
Central fossae
on the occlusal surface of molars.
44
Lingual fossa:
located on the lingual surface of incisor teeth, depression
45
Triangular fossae
found on molars and premolars on the occlusal mesial or distal ridges.
46
sulcus
long depression or valley in the surface of a tooth between ridges and cusps, the
inclines of which meet at an angle.
47
developmental groove
a shallow groove or line between the primary parts of the crown or
root. Union of 2 lobes
48
supplemental groove,
less distinct, is also a shallow linear depression on the surface of a tooth,
but it is supplemental to a developmental groove (kind of like branching of it). have wrinkled
appearances
49
Pits
small pinpoint deepest depressions located at the junction of developmental grooves or at
terminals of those grooves. For example, central pit is a term used to describe a landmark in the
central fossa of molars
50
lobe
one of the primary sections of formation in the development of the crown. Usually seen
only in deciduous teeth. Cusps and mamelons are representative of lobes.
51
mamelon
any one of the three rounded protuberances found on the incisal ridges of newly
erupted incisor teeth. Considered to be a feature of the permanent incisors,
52
Cuspal Gothic Pyramid
1. Mesial cusp ridge
2. Distal cusp ridge
3. Buccal cusp ridge
4. Lingual or triangular cusp ridge
53
LINES ANGLE:
formed by the junction of two surfaces and from the combination of the two surfaces
that join.
54
Example of lines angle
on an anterior tooth, the junction of the mesial and labial surfaces is called the
mesiolabial line angle.
55
POINT ANGLE:
junction of three surfaces
56
The point angles of the anterior teeth are
mesiolabioincisal -mesiolinguoincisal
| - distolabioincisal -distolinguoincisal
57
The point angles of the posterior teeth are
mesiobucco-occlusal -mesiolinguo-occlusal
| - distobucco-occlusal -distolinguo-occlusal
58
1st Mandibular molar is the
6 years molar
59
cusp of carabelli ONLY on
1st max molar

| functional, esthetic, and statistical sense
61
Malformations
Dental anomalies most often seen in 3rd molars, max
| laterals, mandibular 2nd premolars
62
Dental lamina
epithelial thickening in area
| where teeth will form
63
Bud stage how many teeth appear?

18-20 weeks
70
Primary crown formation takes
____ years from initial
calcification to root completion
2-3 years
71
Sometimes infants born with
Mandibular lateral incisors
72
Sequence of eruptionnprimary
```
Central incisor
Lateral incisor
1st molar
Canine
2nd molar
```
73
Early loss of Primary teeth may lead to
Lack of space for permanent dentition
74
Some primary teeth in use until about
12yrs Old
75
Premature loss of primary teeth, retention of primary teeth,
congenital absence of teeth, dental anomalies, and
insufficient space play a role in the
initiation and
| development of abnormal occlusion.
76
How many teeth in permanent dentition?
32
77
How many teeth in primary dentition?
20
78
Permanent incisors, canines, and premolars called
Succedaneous teeth
79
General rule is
mandibular permanent teeth erupt before
| maxillary
80
Permanent teeth erupt by
causing resorption of the primary
| tooth’s root which becomes loose and is exfoliated
81
2nd molar erupts at about
12 yrs
82
3rd molars erupt at about
17 yrs
83
Tooth size mostly depends
Genetics
84
Dental Pulp-connective tissue contains
```
Arteries
Veins
Lymphatic system
Nerves
Apical foramen-opening at the apex
```
85
Dental age
Based on formation or eruption of teeth
86
Maxillary molars have how many roots?
3
87
FDI NUMBERING SYSTEM
The first digit in the number is related to the quadrant (UR=1)(UL=2)(LR=3)(LL=4) and the second digit refers to the number of teeth back. For example UR first molar is #16.
88
Palmer Method
Split into 4 quadrants (UL,UR,LR,LL) and then split down midline. Numbering 1-8 each quadrant. Ortho method.
89
Do anterior teeth have cusp?
No, they have incisal edges
90
Primary dentition formula
I 2/2, C 1/1, M 2/2=10
91
What to. Remember about dentition formula?
