Module: Morphology Learning Objectives 1. Define the Key Terms. 2. List the name and location of the primary and permanent teeth. 3. Identify the surfaces of each tooth. 4. List the anatomical structures of the teeth and their definitions. 5. Recognize the dental arches and quadrants. Copyright © 2006 Thomson Delmar Learning. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 3

Key Terms • • • Adjacent Anatomical crown Apical foramen Bifurcated Buccal Cervical line Cingulum Clinical crown Cusp of Carabelli • Cusps • Dentition • Developmental groove • Distal • Facial • Fissure • Fossa • Furcation Copyright © 2006 Thomson Delmar Learning. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 4

Key Terms • • • Imbrication lines Incisal edge Lingual Mamelons Mandibular arch Marginal ridges Maxillary arch Mesial Midline Oblique ridge Occlusal • • Pit Posterior Ridge Succedaneous Supplemental groove Transverse ridge Triangular ridge Trifurcated Copyright © 2006 Thomson Delmar Learning.

Part A: Maxillary and Mandibular Arches Dental Quadrants Copyright © 2006 Thomson Delmar Learning. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 6

Function of Each Arch • Influenced by – The form and shape of the tooth – Proper positioning of each tooth • Antagonists – The opposing tooth – The tooth proximal to it – Distributes equal force of impact of occlusion – Each tooth helps support the next Copyright © 2006 Thomson Delmar Learning.

Tooth Eruption • 20 primary or deciduous teeth • 32 permanent teeth • Mandibular teeth erupt first • Primary dentition does not include bicuspids or third molars Copyright © 2006 Thomson Delmar Learning. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 8
