Study Notes
Islamic Teachings on Accountability
- A person's journey on the Day of Judgment will not end until being questioned about four things:
- How they spent their life
- The state of their body
- Their knowledge and how they used it
- How they acquired and spent their wealth
Maxillary Central Incisor
- The maxillary central incisor is the broadest tooth in the anterior set.
- It's the only tooth in the dental arch where the mesial surfaces of the upper and lower teeth are contact.
- Maxillary central incisor has five aspects: Labial, lingula, mesial, distal, and incisal.
Diastema
- A space occurs between the central incisors
- The dental arch is wider on the facial/labial side compared to the lingual side
Tooth Numbering Systems
- There is a Universal Tooth Numbering System
- There is also a Palmer/Zsigmondy System
Tooth Development/Chronology
- Different stages of tooth development are associated with specific age ranges.
- First evidence of calcification: 3-4 months
- Enamel completed: 4-5 years
- Eruption: 7-8 years
- Root completed: 10 years
Maxillary Central Incisor Aspects
- The maxilla central incisor has five aspects:
- Labial
- Lingual
- Mesial
- Distal
- Incisal
Labial Surface
- The crown's outline is trapezoidal.
- The shortest side of the trapezoidal crown is oriented towards the cervical area.
Mesial Outline
- Slightly convex
- The crest of curvature is near the incisal ridge, almost at the middle one-third of the incisal.
- The mesioincisal angle is sharp
- The mesial contact area is represented.
Distal Outline
- More convex.
- The crest of curvature is at the cervix.
- The distoincisal angle is rounded.
- The distal surface's contact area is represented.
Incisal Outline
- The incisal outline is usually perpendicular to the tooth's long axis.
- The root outline is cone-shaped, ending in a blunt apex.
- The crown outline is usually trapezoid (with the shorter side near the cervix).
Cervical Outline
- Convex on root side.
- Concave on the crown side.
Lingual Surface
- The tooth converges lingually (tapers towards the lingual aspect).
- The lingual surface is narrower than the labial surface.
- The facial dental arch is wider compared to the lingual arch
Lingual Surface Elevations
- Cingulum at the cervical one-third.
- Mesial and Distal marginal ridges.
- Incisal ridge
Lingual Surface Depressions
- M-shaped lingual fossa.
Mesial Surface
- The crown's outline is wedge-shaped or triangular.
- The base of the triangle is at the cervix.
- apex is at the incisal ridge.
Mesial Outline
- The labial outline is convex, and the crest of curvature is at the center of the cervical third, representing the cervical ridge.
- The lingual outline is mostly convex in the cervical one-third, representing the cingulum, then becomes concave in the middle third, and has a slight convexity toward the incisal region indicating the incisal ridge.
- The incisal ridge is at the same line as the root's apex.
Distal Surface
- The distal surface is the reverse of the mesial surface.
- The crown appears thicker at the incisal one-third.
- The cervical line curvature is less than the mesial curve (by 1mm).
Incisal Aspect
- The crown is broader mesiodistally than labiolingually.
- The labial outline is broader and flatter compared to the lingual one.
- The incisal edge, roughly in the center of this aspect.
- The fossa is lingual to the incisal edge, and is bordered by strong mesial and distal marginal ridges.
Pulp Cavity
- To study the pulp you need longitudinal and cross-sectional views of the tooth.
Pulp Chamber
- Mesio-distal section: Trapezoidal (wide incisally, narrow cervically).
- Three pulp horns are apparent in young teeth (they disappear with age).
- Labio-lingual section: Triangular, pointed incisally, and wide cervically.
Root Canal
- Single and straight, with apical tapering.
- Oval cross-section.
