    Deciduous Dentition: Greta Keršytė OF 3 Group Lithuanian University of Health Sciences 2016

    Uploaded by

    GretaKeršytė
    The document discusses deciduous (baby) teeth. It provides definitions for key terms like natal, neonatal, and deciduous. Natal teeth are present at birth, while neonatal teeth erupt within the first month. There are 20 deciduous teeth that begin forming in the fourth month in utero. They erupt in a given order from ages 6 months to 2.5 years. Deciduous teeth are important for chewing, speaking, and smiling during childhood. Their preservation allows proper eruption of permanent teeth. The document also covers anatomy differences between primary and permanent teeth and various numbering systems.

    Questions
    Vocabulary
     Supernumerary – virškomplektiniai (dantys)
    If the natal tooth is supernumerary, then the treatment is extraction.

     Formative – formuojantis, sudarantis (~ years - brendimo metai)


    It is what the child chews, speaks, and smiles with during his/her formative years.

     Exfoliation – iškritimas
    It is imperative that the deciduous second molars be preserved until their normal
    time of exfoliation.

     Shallow – negilus, paviršutiniškas, lėkštas, plokščias


    Pulp chamber is shallow.

     Flare – praplatėti
    Molar roots flare more as they approach the apex.
    Natal and Neonatal Teeth
    Natal and Neonatal Teeth

    Natal teeth are teeth present at birth.


    Neonatal teeth are teeth erupted within the first
    month of life.
    Natal teeth are three times more
    common than neonatal teeth.
    Usually occurs in the mandibular
    region of central incisors (natal or
    neonatal cuspids are extremely rare).
    Natal teeth management is dependent
    on a number of factors. If the natal
    tooth is supernumerary, then the
    treatment is extraction. However, natal
    teeth are usually part of the primary
    dentition of the child, in this case teeth
    should not be removed.
    Deciduous Dentition
    Name

    Deciduous teeth = Baby teeth = Temporary


    teeth = Milk teeth = Primary teeth = Lacteal
    Dentition = Pediatric Teeth

    Lat. Dentes decidui


    The word deciduous comes from a Latin word
    meaning to fall off.
    Number

     There are 20 teeth


    in the deciduous
    dentition:
     10 maxillary teeth
     10 mandibular teeth
    Formation and Eruption

     Calcification begins during


    the fourth month of fetal
    life.

     By the end of the sixth


    month, all of the
    deciduous teeth have
    begun calcification.
    Order of Growth

    1. Lower central incisors


    2. Upper central incisors
    3. Upper lateral incisors
    4. Lower lateral incisors
    5. Upper first molars
    6. Lower first molars
    7. Upper canines

     It is what the child chews, speaks,


    and smiles with during his/her
    formative years.
     It is imperative that the deciduous
    second molars be preserved until
    their normal time of exfoliation.
    This prevent mesial migration of
    the first permanent molars.

     Shorter
     Narrower occlusal table
     Thinner enamel and
    dentin layers
     Color is usually lighter
    Pulps of Primary Teeth

     Relatively larger
     Pulp horns are closer to
    the outer surface
     Pulp chamber is shallow
     Form of the pulp follows
    the external anatomy
    Roots of Primary Teeth

     Roots are longer,


    slender, narrower
     Molar roots flare more as
    they approach the apex
     Apical foramina may be
    larger and accessory
    canals often larger and
    more numerous
