    Study Notes

    Hard Tissue Examination of the Dentition

    • Divisions of Human Dentition:

      • Primary (Deciduous), Mixed (Transitional), and Permanent Dentition.
    • Primary Dentition:

      • Formation begins in utero.
      • Comprises 20 teeth.
    • Mixed Dentition:

      • Occurs between ages 6-12.
      • Involves the presence of both primary and permanent teeth.
    • Permanent Dentition:

      • Consists of 32 teeth.
      • Mineralization starts at birth, and roots fully develop approximately 3 years post-eruption.

    Types of Dental Injuries and Fractures

    • Dental Charting:

      • Involves recording existing restorations, lesions, and occlusal relationships.
    • Examination Procedures:

      • Visual, clinical, and radiographic assessments to detect lesions and dental anomalies.
    • Types of Dental Injuries:

      • Encompass attrition, erosion, abrasion, and abfraction.

    Developmental and Noncarious Dental Lesions

    • Developmental Enamel Lesions:

      • Include Enamel Hypoplasia, Hypomineralization, and Hypomaturation.
      • Enamel Hypoplasia: Caused by disturbances during matrix formation.
      • Hypomineralization: Occurs during the mineralization stage of enamel.
      • Hypomaturation: Results in brittle enamel that fractures easily.
    • Developmental Defect of Dentin:

      • Dentogenesis Imperfecta: Genetic condition leading to rapid wear and opalescent discoloration.
    • Noncarious Dental Lesions:

      • Attrition: Tooth wear due to contact; prevalent in men.
      • Erosion: Loss of tooth structure from chemical processes.
      • Abrasion: Mechanical wear from non-masticatory forces.
      • Abfraction: Loss resulting from flexing and microfractures in enamel/dentin.

    Caries Development and Classification

    • Early Childhood Caries (ECC):

      • Also known as Baby Bottle Decay; characterized by demineralization along the cervical region of primary teeth.
    • Requirements for Caries Development:

      • Presence of microorganisms (Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacillus), fermentable carbohydrates, and susceptible tooth surfaces.
    • G.V. Black's Classification of Carious Lesions:

      • Includes pitfalls like type I (single pit) and type V (cervical caries).

    Occlusal Relationships

    • Normal vs. Malocclusion:

      • Normal occlusion features ideal relationships, while malocclusion describes deviations.
    • Angle’s Classification:

      • Class I: Normal bite.
      • Class II: Retrognathic.
      • Class III: Prognathic.
    • Occlusal Dynamics:

      • Includes static (jaws closed) and dynamic (jaw movement during activities) occlusion metrics.

    Recognition of Signs of Occlusal Trauma

    • Trauma Types:

      • Primary trauma: Excessive force on a normally supported tooth.
      • Secondary trauma: Normal force on a tooth with existing bone loss.
    • Signs of Occlusal Trauma:

      • Increased tooth mobility and potential periodontal disease progression.

    Proximal Contacts

    • Importance:

      • Facilitate masticatory force dissipation, maintain tooth alignment, and prevent food impaction.
    • Loss Consequences:

      • Potential impact on bone health leading to alveolar bone loss.

    Fractures and Injuries

    • Assessment Techniques:
      • Visual distinctions in color and translucency, combined with clinical and radiographic methods for comprehensive evaluation.

    Summary

    • Comprehensive understanding of hard tissue examination leads to effective identification and management of dental issues, including caries, occlusion, and dental fractures.
