Human Dentition Introduction Dental Anatomy Includes: 1 - Nomenclature & terminology. 2 - The external morphology and internal composition of individual teeth. 3 -How tooth form serves its function. 4 - The relationship of teeth to each other and to the jaw bones.
Dental Anatomy Nomenclature The Jaws & Dental Arches
The Jaws and Dental Arches l A. The maxilla is two bones forming the upper jaw; they are rigidly attached to the skull. l B. The mandible is a horse-shoe shaped bone which articulates with the skull by way of the temporo-mandibular joint the TMJ.
Right Quadrants: right & left quadrants Left Maxillary right and left. Mandibular right and left. 4 Quadrants Right Left
Functions of Teeth 1 - Mastication: teeth are designed to perform this function. Incisors Canine Premolars Chisel like Wedge like At least two projections Cutting or Cutting (cusps). incising and Tearing and tearing grinding Molars Multiple projections (cusps) Grinding
2 - Appearance: - Well arranged clean teeth with proper alignment give nice appearance to the face. – Teeth give support to the facial expressions. 3 - Speech: for clear pronunciation and production of sound. 4 - Growth of jaws: The teeth play a role in the growth of the jaws in some periods of life.
Types of Teeth

2 -The International Numbering System “FDI” Federation Dentaire International (the two digit system) The teeth are designated by using two-digits: a. The first digit of the code is located at the left side of the number and indicates the quadrant: In permanent dentition In deciduous dentition U. R. 1 2 U. L. U. R. 5 6 L. R. 4 3 L. L. R. 8 7 U. L L. L.

Surfaces of Teeth
Surfaces of teeth are identified by the relationship to surrounding orofacial structures Each tooth has Five surfaces: 1. Facial 2. Lingual, 3. Mesial, and 4. Distal (proximal) 5. Functioning surf. ) Incisal) occlusal
FACIAL SURFACE any surface on the outside (towards the face) 1. LABIAL is facial surface of the anterior teeth )green , ( 2. BUCCAL is the facial surface of the posterior teeth (blue).
Inter-proximal surfaces: Surfaces in between two teeth: 1. Facing towards the midline: MESIAL. 2. Facing away from the midline: DISTAL
LINGUAL The surfaces facing the tongue PALATAL on the maxilla. palatal
Functioning Surfaces: chewing/biting surfaces of teeth: OCCLUSAL: chewing surfaces of posterior teeth INCISAL: the anteriors’ biting surface
Line and Point Angles Division into Thirds
Line and Point Angles Line angle: It is formed by the junction of two surfaces and its name is derived from both surfaces Point angle: It is formed by the junction of three surfaces and its name is derived from these surfaces.
Line Angles of Anterior Teeth
Line Angles of Posterior Teeth
Point Angles Meeting of 3 surfaces
Division into Thirds
Anatomical Landmarks of the Crown Developmental data: Lobe: • It is one of the primary centers of calcification and growth formed during the crown development. • Each tooth begins to develop from four lobes or more. • The pulp chamber has pulp horns corresponding to these lobes.
Anterior teeth premolars
Maxillary molars Mandibular molars
A- Crown Elevations: 1 -Mamelons They are three small rounded projections of enamel present in the incisal third of newly erupted incisors 2 -Cingulum It is the bulge on the cervical third of lingual surface of the crown in anterior teeth 3 -Cusps They are pyramidal projections on the incisal portion of the canine and on the occlusal surfaces of the premolars and molars
4 -Tubercle It is a small elevation produced by excessive formation of enamel. Tubercle is noticed at : • the palatal surface of E & 6 • sometimes at the lingual surface of incisors over the cingulum. N. B. Tubercle differs from cusp , it is formed of enamel only while cusp is formed of pulp horn covered by dentin and enamel.
Marginal 5 -Ridges Triangular Ridge or elevation of enamel forming the margin of the surface of a tooth; • on mesial /distal margins of lingual surfaces anterior teeth. • mesial & distal margins of occlusal surfaces posterior teeth Transverse Ridge Oblique Ridge Linear • Linear ridges: Elevated portions of tooth run in a line named for their location • Cervical • Incisal • Labial • Buccal • Lingual
B-Crown Depressions Linear Depressions Irregular Depressions 1 -Developmental grooves: 1 -Fossa Depression or concavity Shallow grooves that separate cusps or primary parts of teeth 2 - Supplemental grooves: • Lingual • Small , irregularly placed auxiliary grooves. fossa • Branches from developmental grooves. • They do not denote union of primary lobes. • The third molars followed by second permanent molars are characterized by high number of supplemental grooves. • triangular fossae • Central fossa
Linear Depressions 3 - Fissures • Found in the bottom of developmental grooves. • Result from incomplete union of the primary lobes. • Represent a fault in enamel. Irregular Depressions 2 - PITS: • b- FAULTY PIT: • Develop as a result • of incomplete formation of enamel. • It is located at the end of the buccal developmental grooves of the lower molars or palatal developmental grooves of the upper molars.
