Primary Den++on Oral and Dental Sciences Aim: To recognise the shape and form of the deciduous teeth in order to recognise individual teeth, their func6ons and di7erences. Intended learning outcomes A:er this session students should be able to: Explain the importance of the primary den++on List the main di7erences between the primary and permanent den66ons Notate the erup+on dates of the primary den66on Describe the signs and symptoms of teething Recognise condi+ons which may occur to the primary den66on Recognise the morphology of the primary den66on Importance of the Primary Den++on Space maintainer.

A systema+c review Lenzi et al (2014) 18 studies reviewed Those who had experiences trauma in their primary incisors tend to have an increased incidence of developmental disorders in the permanent teeth following through, compared to those who had not had any trauma prior to erup+on of the permanent successor. deciduous roots close The damage to the permanent teeth occurred more oEen and - to appeared to be worse the younger the child was at the +me of the formation trauma. of permanent crown 10 complete displacement AvULSION · primary teeth not normally reimplanted Intrusion I trauma knocking tooth into socket.
