Study Notes
Eruption Sequence
- Mandibular teeth erupt before their maxillary counterparts
Calcification Timing
- Calcification of deciduous teeth begins around the 14th week of fetal development
Eruption Process
- The movement of a developing tooth from the bony crypt to the oral cavity is termed eruption
E.O. Notation
- E.O. stands for "erupted" and "observed"
Permanent Molar Calcification
- Calcification of the first permanent molars commences around the birth of a child
Learning Outcomes
- Understanding the form and function of primary and permanent teeth allows for analysis of their role in chewing, speech, and facial development
Eruption Process Details
- During eruption, the developing tooth moves through the crypt, guided by the pressure and resorption of surrounding bone
Deciduous Tooth Eruption Sequence
- Deciduous tooth eruption follows a specific pattern:
- Central incisors
- Lateral incisors
- Canines
- First molars
- Second molars
Mandibular Versus Maxillary Eruption
- Mandibular teeth tend to erupt slightly ahead of their maxillary counterparts
Age Estimation
- Assessing age based on teeth relies on:
- Chronology of tooth eruption
- Anatomical features of the mandible
