Study Notes
Dental Anomalies and Classifications
-
Common Anomalies:
- Paramolar: erupts on buccal, lingual, or proximal surfaces; often fused with permanent maxillary molar.
- Peridens: erupts outside the dental arch.
Symptoms and Conditions
-
Pericoronitis:
- Most prevalent condition; inflammation of gingiva surrounding the tooth.
Classification of Third Molars
- Class I: Adequate space between ramus and distal second molar.
- Class II: Insufficient space between the mandible and distal second molar, less than the mesiodistal diameter of the third molar crown.
- Class III: Entire third molar is located within the ramus.
Impaction Positions
- Position A: Highest point of impacted tooth is level with occlusal line.
- Position B: Tooth is below occlusal line but above cervical line.
- Position C: Tooth is below the cervical line.
Angulations of Impacted Molars
- Mesioangular: Most common; crown contacts distal surface of second molar.
- Distoangular: Crown directed distally towards the ramus.
- Vertical: Normal position; may fail to erupt due to space issues.
- Horizontal: Positioned at any level; potential impaction.
- Inverted: Crown points towards the mandible's inferior border.
Root Anomalies
- Supernumerary Roots: Excessive roots; more than usual configuration.
- Concrescence: Fusion of two normally separated teeth via cementum, common in maxillary molars.
Enamel and Dentin Defects
- Amelogenesis Imperfecta: Hereditary enamel hypoplasia; occurs due to protein malfunctions during enamel formation.
- Enamel Pearl: Small globule found in furcation areas of roots; arises from misplaced ameloblasts.
- Dentin Dysplasia: Dominant genetic disorder; presents with rootless teeth.
Anomaly Types
- Fusion: Two tooth buds combine into a single large tooth.
- Gemination: One tooth bud attempts to divide into two, appearing as a split or twinned crown.
- Taurodontism: Elongated crowns with rectangular roots and displaced furcation.
Clinical Features and Treatments
- Clinical Features of Amelogenesis Imperfecta: Abnormal colors, thin enamel, higher susceptibility to cavities, hypersensitivity to temperature.
-
Treatment Options:
- Children: Stainless steel crowns.
- Adults: Porcelain restorations.
Radiographic Indicators
- Dentin Dysplasia Type I: Root problems; short roots and obliterated pulp chambers in deciduous teeth.
- Dentin Dysplasia Type II: Crown problems; primary dentition appears opalescent while permanent teeth are normal.
Etiology of Dental Anomalies
- Trauma: Physical injury leading to various anomalies.
- Hereditary Factors: Genetic predisposition influencing dental development.
- Systemic Conditions: Conditions such as Rickets, Syphilis, and the effects of fluoridation can lead to enamel defects.
Clinical Implications
- Difficulty in tooth extraction for anomalies like dilaceration (bent roots) and ankylosis (embedded in bone) due to abnormal positioning and structure.
