    The document discusses oral structures and the different types of teeth, including primary teeth (deciduous teeth) and permanent teeth. It describes the anatomy and features of teeth, such as the crown, root, enamel, dentin, pulp, and cementum. Different types of teeth are also defined, along with their characteristics and functions.

    Oral Structures and Types of

    teeth

    By:

    Ms. Zain Malkawi, MSDH


    Introduction
    • Oral structures are
    essential in reflecting local
    and systemic health

    • Oral anatomy: a
    fundamental of dental
    sciences on which the oral
    health care provider is
    based.

    • Oral anatomy used to


    assess the relationship of
    teeth, both within and
    between the arches
    The color and morphology of the structures may
    vary with genetic patterns and age.

    Parts of a Tooth

    • Crown

    • Root
    Parts of a Tooth

    • Crown: part of the tooth


    covered by enamel,
    portion of the tooth visible
    in the oral cavity.

    • Root: part of the tooth


    which covered by
    cementum.
    • Posterior teeth • Anterior teeth
    Root
    • Apex: rounded end of the
    root

    • Periapex (periapical): area


    around the apex of a tooth

    • Foramen: opening at the


    apex through which blood
    vessels and nerves enters

    • Furcation: area of a two or


    three rooted tooth where
    the root divides
    Tooth Layers
    • Enamel: the hardest calcified
    tissue covering the dentine in
    the crown of the tooth (96%)
    mineralized.

    • Dentine: hard calcified tissue


    surrounding the pulp and
    underlying the enamel and
    cementum. Makes up the
    bulk of the tooth, (70%)
    mineralized.
    Tooth Layers
    • Pulp: the innermost
    noncalsified tissues
    containing blood
    vessels, lymphatics
    and nerves

    • Cementum: bone like


    calcified tissue
    covering the dentin in
    the root of the tooth,
    50% mineralized.
    Tooth Layers
    Tooth Surfaces
    • Facial: Labial , Buccal

    • Lingual: called palatal


    for upper arch.

    • Proximal: mesial , distal

    • Contact area: area


    where that touches the
    adjacent tooth in the
    same arch.
    Tooth Surfaces
    • Incisal: surface of an incisor which toward the
    opposite arch, the biting surface, the newly
    erupted “permanent incisors have mamelons”:
    projections of enamel on this surface.

    • Occlusal: surface of posterior teeth that is


    toward the opposite arch, the chewing surface.

    Types of Teeth

    • Primary Teeth (Deciduous Teeth)

    • Permanent Teeth (Adult Teeth)


    The Primary Dentition

    • Primary dentition (decidous) consists of 20


    teeth, 8 incisors, 4 canines, and 8 molars.
    Primary Teeth (Dental arch)
    The Primary Dentition
    • The anatomy of the primary teeth is similar to
    that of permanent teeth except :

     primary teeth are smaller in size


     They are whiter
     The crowns are shorter
     The occlusal table is narrower faciolingually
     Pulp chambers are larger
     Roots are longer and slender
     Root Trunk: area from the cementoenamel junction to
    the furcation are shorter
     Have fewer anomalies and variations in tooth form
    Permanent Dentition
    • Consists of 8 incisors, 4 canines, 8 premolars and
    12 molars
    • Teeth have one, two, or three roots
