Typology: Exams
1 / 10
dentition - correct answer ✅is used to describe the natural teeth in the jaws. primary dentition - correct answer ✅The first dentition present. an older term for the primary dentition is the? - correct answer ✅deciduous dentition permanent dentition - correct answer ✅the second dentition to develop and sometimes considered the secondary dentition. non succedaneous - correct answer ✅the molars of the permanent dentition. They are without any primary predecessors. succedaneous - correct answer ✅only the anteriors and premolars of the permanent dentition 20% - correct answer ✅Teeth comprise around _____% of the surface area of the oral cavity, maxillary more so than mandibular teeth.
8 incisors, 4 canines, and 8 molars - correct answer ✅Tooth types of both arches within the primary dentition include ______,______, and _____, for a total of 20 teeth. 8 incisors, 4 canines, 8 premolars, and 12 molars - correct answer ✅Tooth types of both arches within the permanent dentition include _____,______,_____, and _____, for a total of 32 teeth. incisors - correct answer ✅function as instruments for biting and cutting food during mastication, because of their triangular proximal form. canines - correct answer ✅because of their tapered shape and their prominent cusp, function to pierce or tear food during mastication premolars - correct answer ✅found only in the permanent dentition, function to assist the molars in grinding food during mastication because of their broad occlusal surface and their prominent cusps. molars - correct answer ✅The teeth with the largest and strongest crowns. Its function is grinding food during mastication, assisted by premolars.
Universal Tooth Designation System - correct answer ✅the primary teeth are designed in a consecutive arrangement by using capital letters, A through T, starting with maxillary right second molar, moving clockwise, and ending with the mandibular right second molar International Standards Organization Designation System (ISO System) - correct answer ✅teeth are designed by using a two-digit code. The first digit of the code indicates the quadrant, and the second indicates the tooth in this quadrant. Palmer Notation Method - correct answer ✅Another system commonly used in orthodontics, also known as the Military Tooth Numbering System Primary Dentition Period - correct answer ✅Times span -6 months to -6 years Teeth marking start of period - Eruption of primary mandibular central incisors Dentition present - Primary Growth of jaws - Beginning
Mixed Dentition Period - correct answer ✅Time Span - 6 years to 12 years start of period - Eruption of permanent mandibular Dentition present - Primary and permanent Growth of jaws - Fastest and most noticeable Permanent Dentition Period - correct answer ✅Time Span - After - 12 years Start of period - shedding of the last primary tooth Dentition present - Usually permanent Growth of Jaw - Slowest and least noticeable Dental anatomy - correct answer ✅is the area of the dental sciences dealing with the morphology, or form, of the teeth, both crown and root. Arch - correct answer ✅In the D-A-Q-T system, A stands for _______________. Anatomic Crown - correct answer ✅Part of crown covered by enamel
Anatomic Root - correct answer ✅Part of root covered by cementum Clinical Crown - correct answer ✅Part of anatomic crown visible in the oral cavity and not covered by gingival tissue Clinical Root - correct answer ✅Part of the anatomic root visible in the oral cavity and not covered by gingival tissue Contact Area - correct answer ✅Tooth anatomy where adjacent tooth crowns in same arch touch on each proximal surface Cusp - correct answer ✅One or more major elevations on the masticatory surface of the canine and posterior teeth Dentition - correct answer ✅In the D-A-Q-T system, D stands for _______________. D-A-Q-T System - correct answer ✅System for designate theth: D for dentition, A for Arch, Q for quadrant , and T for tooth
Dental Anatomy - correct answer ✅Area of dental sciences dealing with tooth morphology Dentition Periods - correct answer ✅Three periods that occur throughout lifetime: primary, mixed and peranent Distal (tooth) - correct answer ✅Surface of tooth farthest away from midline Embrasures - correct answer ✅Spaces from curvatures where two teeth in same arch contact Height of Contour (Crest of Curvature) - correct answer ✅Crest of curvature that is the greatest elevation of the tooth crown either incisocervically or occlusocervically Incisal Surface - correct answer ✅Masticatory surface for anterior teeth
International Numbering System (INS) - correct answer ✅International system for tooth designation using a two-digit code Interproximal Space - correct answer ✅Area between adjacent tooth surfaces Line Angle - correct answer ✅Line formed by junction of two crown surfaces Masticatory Surface - correct answer ✅Chewing tooth surface on crown Mesial - correct answer ✅Surface of tooth closest to midline Mixed Dentition Period - correct answer ✅Transitional stage involving the dentition when both primary and permanent teeth are present Occlusal Surface - correct answer ✅Masticatory surface of the posterior teeth
Palmer Notation Method - correct answer ✅System of tooth designation commonly used in orthodontics: when oral cavity is divided into quadrants and each tooth is designated by a numerical 1 to 8 Permanent Dentition Period - correct answer ✅Final stage in the dentition with all the permanent teeth present Point Angle - correct answer ✅Imaginary line formed by junction of three crown surfaces Primary Dentition Period - correct answer ✅Only primary teeth are present with this dentition Proximal (teeth) - correct answer ✅Mesial and distal surface between adjacent teeth Quadrants - correct answer ✅Division of each dental arch into two parts with four quadrants in oral cavity
Quadrant - correct answer ✅In the D-A-Q-T system, Q stands for _______________. Ridges - correct answer ✅Linear elevations on masticatory surface of either anterior or posterior teeth Root Axis Line (RAL) - correct answer ✅Imaginary line representing long axis line of tooth drawn to bisect cervical line Root Concavities - correct answer ✅Indentitations on the surface of the root Sextants - correct answer ✅Dental arch division into three parts based on relationship to midline Tooth Type - correct answer ✅In the D-A-Q-T system, T stands for _______________. Thirds - correct answer ✅Crown surface or root division into three parts: crown horizontally and vertically and root horizontally
Universal Numbering System (UNS) - correct answer ✅Numbering system for permanent teeth by using Arabic numerals #1 through #32 and for primary teeth by using capital letters A through T
