A

tertiary dentin

Percentage of dentin that is organic

A

20-30%

25
Q

Primary function of dental pulp is

A

to form dentin

-not to nourish or provide sensation

26
Q

What is the dentin and pulp formed from

A

Dental Papilla

-think D.P. - dental papilla and dentin pulp

27
Q

Dentin that is most highly mineralized is

A

Intra or peritubular dentin

  • Peritubular - right around the odontoblastic process
  • INTERtubular dentin is in between two processes
28
Q

The DEJ occurs at what two structures during development

A

dental papilla and inner enamel epithelium

-DP cells in contact with IEE = odontoblasts

29
Q

Softest dental tissue

A

cementum

30
Q

2 types of cementum, where are they

A

Acellular - coronal 2/3

-Cellular - apical 1/3, think that the cells are down where the blood supply is coming from

31
Q

When viewed from the occlusal, the arrangement of the teeth are what shape,
however, the 4 or 5 posterior teeth are aligned in what shape

A

all teeth in parabolic shape

posterior teeth aligned in straight line

32
Q

All teeth develop from how many lobes

What are the exceptions

A

All teeth develop from 4 lobes

  • Except permanent first molars - 5 lobes
  • And mandibular 2nd premolar 3 cusp type - 5 lobes
33
Q

Marginal ridges of mand first premolar

A

mesial marginal ridge more cervical than the distal

34
Q

All teeth have distal and mesial marginal ridges - true or false

A

true

35
Q

What separates cusp ridges from marginal ridges

A

developmental grooves

36
Q

Union of a facial and lingual triangular ridge

A

Transverse ridge

37
Q

How many teeth in permanent dentition normally have a cingulum, which are they

A

All 12 anterior teeth

38
Q

What percent of the total F-L dimension is made up by the occlusal table of posterior teeth

A

55-65%

39
Q

What makes up the periodontium

A

Gingiva, PDL, Cementum, Alveolar bone (junctional epithelium is often included)
-epithelial attachment - junctional epithelium

40
Q

How wide is PDL normally and with age

A

PDL is 0.2 mm wide

-Old age decreases to 0.1 due to deposition of cementum and bone

41
Q

Attachments of PDL fibers

A

tooth (cementum) to dental alveolar bone

42
Q

Attachments of gingival fibers

A

tooth (cementum) to gingiva

43
Q

What is the predominant connective tissue for PDL fibers

A

Type 1 collagen

44
Q

What fibers provide the major support for a tooth during function

A

Oblique fibers

45
Q

Which fiber reduces the likelihood of forceful impaction into alveolus

A

Oblique fibers

46
Q

Group of fibers most likely found in middle third of root

Most prevalent type of PDL fiber

A

Oblique fibers

48

49
Q

Attachments of transseptal fibers

50

About how much of permanent root is formed when tooth erupts

A

50%

51
Q

When is the apex of a tooth fully formed after it erupts

A

52
Q

A

Mesial aspect

57

A

Ant teeth than post
Max than mand
Mesial than distal
Greatest on mesial of max central incisor

Think max central incisor as model for all of these

58

A

between maxillary centrals

or as a 4th molar sometimes

59

A

when cementum of two teeth join together

60
Q

A

presence of fewer than normal teeth - 6?

61
Q

Which aspect of mand central opposes the which part of max central

A

distoincisal aspect of mand central opposes lingual fossa of max central

62
Q

Exceptions to picket fence drawing

A

Lingual cusps of max premolars contact the distal fossa of respective mand premolars because of mesial slant of lingual cusp
(max 2nd premolar lingual cusp contacts distal fossa of mand 2nd premolar)

In a cusp to fossa contacting relationship in ICP, max first premolar is most likely to articulate with mand first premolar - this is due to lingual inclination of max first premolar. Mand second premolar is not involved in cusp to fossa manner
