  • Anatomical Landmarks in Order to Study an Individual Tooth Intelligently, We Must Be Able to Recognize All Landmarks of Importance by Name
    DENTAL ANATOMY 1ST grade Lec.3 Anatomical Landmarks In order to study an individual tooth intelligently, we must be able to recognize all landmarks of importance by name. These include: 1. Cusp: It is an elevation on the crown portion of a tooth making up a divisional part of the occlusal surface. Cusps are present in the posterior teeth and the canines. •• Canine teeth have a single cusp; they are often called as the cuspids. •• Premolars generally have two cusps with an exception of the mandibular 2nd premolar which frequently has three cusps. Premolars are therefore also called as the bicuspids. 1 •• Maxillary and mandibular 1st molars have five cusps, while other molars generally have four cusps. Each cusp is a gothic pyramid with four sides formed by four ridges that run down from the cusp tip: •• Mesial and distal cusp ridges (cusp slopes) •• Buccal/lingual cusp ridge •• Triangular ridge of the cusp. There are two cusp slopes on either side of the triangular ridge. In case of canines, there is a labial ridge analogous to the buccal ridge posterior teeth; there is a lingual ridge analogous to triangular ridge of posterior teeth. In the Table below the Number of cusps in different types of teeth: Tooth type Maxillary arch Mandibular arch Incisors 0 0 Canines 1 1 Premolars 2 2 in 1st premolar 3 or 2 in 2nd premolar Molars 1st molar 4 +1 accessory cusp 5 (cusp of Carabelli) 2nd molar 4 4 3rd molar 4 or 3 4 or 5 A cusp is named according to its location on the tooth.

  • Surfaces and Ridges
    Surfaces and ridges • The crowns of incisors and canines have four surfaces and ridge, while the crowns of premolars and molars have five surfaces The surfaces are: 1. Labial surface: is the surface which is toward the lip in incisors and canines (in anterior teeth). 2. Buccal surface: is the surface which is toward the cheek in premolars and molars (posterior teeth). The labial and buccal surfaces could be termed as the "facial surfaces". 3. Lingual surface: is the surface which is facing the tongue (all teeth). 4. Occlusal surface: is the surface of the posterior teeth coming in contact with the teeth in the opposite jaw during closing the mouth. In anterior teeth, this surface is called "incisal ridge". 5. Proximal surface: is the surface of the tooth facing toward adjacent teeth in the same dental arch. a. Mesial surface: is the surface which is facing toward the median line. b. Distal surface: is the surface which is facing away from the median line. All teeth have their mesial surfaces touching the distal surfaces of the adjacent tooth except the maxillary and mandibular central incisor (both permanent and deciduous).The area of the mesial and distal surface that touch its neighbor in the arch is called the "contact area". Division of the crown into thirds • For description, the crown and the root are divided into thirds according to the position of the surface. • Line angle: it is formed by the junction of two surfaces and gets its name from these surfaces. Example: mesio-labial line angle. • Point angle: it is formed by junction of three surfaces and get its name from these surfaces.

    Inside Dental Technology November/December 2010, Volume 1, Issue 2 Published by AEGIS Communications MasterClass Implant-Retained Prosthetics Restoring the orally-handicapped with the All-on-4™ technique. by Irfan Atcha, DDS; and Luke Kahng, CDT People are living longer and demanding more functional solutions for missing dentition. Because many patients do not want to deal with the inconvenience of a conventional denture prosthetic, the demand for dental implant-retained prosthetics has increased. Any dental team that incorporates a less expensive, immediate-load product option can offer patients a great service. However, complete rehabilitation of the upper and lower jaw can be costly and time-consuming. The All-on-4 concept (Nobel Biocare, www.nobelbiocare.com) is an optimal alternative for many patients because it utilizes only four implants per arch for an immediate complete full fixed-detachable, screwretained prosthesis. The benefits are numerous and exciting for patients who have suffered with ill-fitting dentures. Dentulous patients in need of extractions with terminal dentition can take advantage of this concept, which increases stability, even with low bone volume. They can choose from several prosthetic options, such as a fixed, titanium implant bridge with acrylic veneering or individual crowns cemented to the bridgework. The treatment procedure uses tilting posterior implants to facilitate optimal support for an acrylic or composite bridge that can be fabricated and functioning just a few hours after surgery. Based on documented measurements, tilted implants have shown good clinical results. The system can be used in the maxilla, allowing the dentist to avoid sinus grafting, or in the mandible, to avoid having to place implants posterior to the symphysis.1 It also has higher patient acceptance rates because of its lower cost and shorter treatment time.

GENERAL Teeth are of different shapes and sizes. The primary function of teeth is to chew (masticate) food. They function in specialized ways in the preparation of food for digestion. There are two kinds of teeth--anterior and posterior. The anterior teeth are designed for the purpose of cutting and tearing food. The posterior teeth are designed for the purpose of grinding or crushing food. Teeth also have a role in speaking, by aiding in the production of sounds. Another function of teeth concerns appearance (esthetics). The presence or absence of teeth, their regularity or irregularity of position, and their color and condition greatly affect the appearance of the individual.
