    Study Notes

    • The text discusses various abnormalities in the number, structure, and size of teeth.

    • Hypodontia: Some people have fewer teeth than normal, ranging from a few missing teeth to total anodontia.

    • Down's syndrome is the most common condition associated with hypodontia.

    • Anodontia leads to the failure of the alveolar process to develop, making it difficult to support dental implants.

    • Supernumerary teeth, or extra teeth, can form in the dental arches due to the cleavage of existing tooth buds or the formation of new ones.

    • The most common supernumerary teeth are the mesiodens (between the maxillary central incisors) and distomolar (distal to the third molar).

    • Other supernumerary teeth include paramolar, mandibular and maxillary premolars, and maxillary lateral incisors.

    • Natal and neonatal teeth are those observable at birth or within the first 30 days of life, and may be primary or supernumerary to the normal teeth.

    • Deciduous teeth, or baby teeth, usually erupt unobstructed, but permanent teeth may be obstructed by various factors like loss of space, overcrowding, and developmental defects.

    • Microdontia: One or more teeth in the dentition are smaller than normal. This can be generalized or affecting a single tooth, with the maxillary lateral incisors and third molars being the most commonly affected.

    • Macrodontia: One or more teeth in the dentition are larger than normal. True generalized macrodontia is rare, but relative macrodontia can occur in individuals with small jaws.

    • Disturbance in the structure of teeth:

      • Developmental defects in enamel: Can be localized or generalized, with Turner's tooth being the most common localized defect caused by trauma or chronic periapical infection.
      • Amelogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disorder affecting the enamel of the teeth, with various types based on the defects in enamel formation and mineralization.

    • The text discusses various abnormalities in the number, structure, and size of teeth.
