*The Dentitions Humans have two dentitions 1-The primary dentition 2-The permanent dentition *The Dentitions 1-Tooth types 2-Dentition periods 1-The primary dentition: 6m to 6y 20 teeth. 10 maxillary and 10 mandibular. 2 incisors, 1 canine and 2 molars. The dental formula is: 2 1 2 I --- C ---- M ---- = 10 2 1 2 1- primary Dentition period ( From 6 months to 6 years) The only deciduous teeth are seen in the oral cavity 2-The permanent dentition: after 12 y (secondary, adult or succedaneous ) 32 teeth, 16 maxillary and 16 mandibular. 2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 premolars and 3 molars. The dental formula is : 2 1 2 3 I ---- C ---- PM --- M ---- = 16 2 1 2 3 3- Secondary ( permanent ) Dentition period ( after 12 years of age ) The only permanent teeth are seen in the oral cavity. Note The permanent molars are not preceded with deciduous teeth so they may be termed as non- succedaneous teeth. 2- Mixed Dentition period ( From 6 years to 12 years of age) Deciduous and permanent teeth are seen in the oral cavity Mixed Deciduous Primary dentition Mixed dentition 6m-6y 6 y -12 y Shedding: It is the physiological loss of the Permanent deciduous teeth and their subsequent replacement by permanent teeth. Permanent dentition 12 y and up X – Ray Showing 1- Primary dentition 2- Mixed dentition 6m-6y 6 y - 12 y 3- Permanent dentition 12 y and up Tooth Anatomy 1- Macro-anatomy of the tooth Each tooth has three anatomical parts: Enamel 1- Crown Cementum 2- The Neck: cervical line. 3- Root (s) Anatomical and clinical crown. Anatomical Clinical Crown Crown Anatomical and clinical crown Clinical Clinical Anatomical crown crown crown Is the part of a tooth ☻The part that is visible in the of the tooth oral cavity above covered by the gum line. enamel. Clinical crown may include all of the anatomical crown and part of the root. Part of the anatomical crown may be covered by gingiva.

Gingival Recession Teeth May Be Divided According To The Number Of Roots Single rooted teeth The undivided portion of the Multirooted teeth root is called: Root Trunk. Teeth may be divided according to no. of roots into: Single rooted teeth Multirooted teeth Junctions of tooth tissues There are three sites of Junction Enamel 1- Cemento-enamel junction DEJ (CEJ): Cervical line CEJ Dentin 2- Dentino-enamel junction Pulp (DEJ): 3- Dentino-cemental junction (DCJ): DCJ Cementum 3-Tooth designation 1) Palmer Notation System: The permanent teeth are numbered from 1-8 on each side from the midline.

The first digit of the code is located at the left side of the number and indicates the quadrant. In the permanent dentition. In the deciduous dentition. U.R. 1 2 U.L. U.R. 5 6 U.L L.R. 4 3 L. L.

Line and point angles Line Point angle angle Incisal edge Line And Point Angles Of The Anterior Teeth Line And Point Angles Of The Posterior Teeth Note: Incisal ridge Note: The anterior teeth have fewer line angles because the meeting of the mesial and distal line surfaces with incisal ridge are rounded , so the mesio-incisal and disto-incisal line angles are practically not exist..

A - Crown Elevations Tubercle. Ridge. Lobe. It is one of the primary centers of calcification and growth formed during the crown development. There are three, four or five lobes The pulp chamber has pulp horns corresponding to these lobes. Mamelons Lobe Cingulum Cusps 1. Mamelones: They are three small round projections of enamel present in the incisal third of newly erupted incisors. After normal use, eventually the mamelones wear down into a flat edge. 2.Cingulum: It is the enlargement or bulge on the cervical third of lingual surface of the crown in anterior teeth. Cusp: Elevation of various shape & size present on **Incisal portion of canine. **The occlusal surface of post. Teeth It is formed of enamel, dentin& pulp Tubercle. It is a small elevation. It is produced by excessive formation of enamel. Tubercle differs from cusp as it is formed of enamel only while cusp is formed of pulp horn covered by dentin and enamel. Ridge. It is a linear elevation on the different surfaces of the crown.

Fissures Incomplete enamel union SULCUS: It is a broad depression or valley on the occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth. Its inclines meet in a developmental groove and extend to the cusp tips.

At the end of buccal groove *Dental anatomy terminology Each erupted tooth is surrounded and supported by the bone of the jaw. It’s called socket or alveolus The developing tooth present in a bony space and is called crypt. SOCKET: It is the bony space in the alveolar bone containing the roots of erupted tooth. It is the bony space in the alveolar bone CRYPT: containing the developing unerupted tooth. OTHER TERMS SELF CLEANSING SURFACES: Facial Lingual Those surfaces of the teeth that are cleaned by the normal functional action of the tongue, lips, cheeks and lubricated by mouth fluids. Incisal Occlusal CALCIFICATION: The organic framework of a tooth becomes hard by depossition of calcium and phosphorous salts brought in by small blood vessels. Organic Hard Framework Tissues
