Tooth Morphology
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Primate Spaces | interproximal spaces between the primary teeth, and is necessary for the proper alignment of the future permanent dentition |
| Bruxism | Grinding |

| Grade II CEP | enamel that extends to near the area of root trunk separation. |
| Grade III CEP | enamel that extends into area of root trunk separation or furca *Periodontal fibers will not attach to enamel. These areas may become site of localized periodontal disease. |
| Enamel Pearl | Droplet or "Pearl" shaped enamel formation found on the root surface. Most frequently seen in the maxillary molars. *Periodontal fibers will not attach to enamel. These areas may also become sites of localized periodontal disease. |
| Dilaceration | A sharp bend or curvature in the root surface. Caused by root displacement during tooth development. |
| Ankylosed Tooth | Abnormal calcification of the periodontal ligament resulting in abnormal fixation of a tooth. |
| Grade I Involvement | Pocket formation into the fluting of the furca,but the interradicular bone is intact. No gross or radiographic evidence of bone loss. |
| Grade II Involvement | Interradicular bone is destroyed on one or more aspects of the furcation,but a portion of alveolar bone and periodontal ligament remains intact. |
| Grade III Involvement | The furcation is occluded by gingiva but the interradicular bone had been destroyed so that a probe can be passed through from one surface to the other. |

| Terminal Plane ? | The distal surfaces of the maxillary and mandibular primary molars are on the same vertical plane. First permanent molars erupt end to end. mandibular primate space, early mesial shift of primary molars into the primate space occurs, and the permanent man |
| Parafunctional contacts | are those made outside the normal range of function.They result from occlusal habits and neuroses.They are potentially injurious to the periodontal supporting structures, but only in the presence of dental biofilm and inflammatory factors.They create |
| Functional contacts | are the normal contacts that are made between the maxillary teeth and the mandibular teeth during chewing and swallowing. Each contact is momentary, so the total contact time is only a few minutes each day. |
| Pathologic Migration | With destruction of the supporting structures of a tooth as a result of periodontal infection, and with a force to move a tooth weakened by disease and bone loss, migration of the tooth can result.Pathologic migration occurs when disease is present. |

| Primary trauma | Excessive occlusal force is exerted on a tooth with normal bone support. |
| Secondary trauma | Excessive occlusal force is exerted on a tooth with bone loss and inadequate alveolar bone support.The ability of the tooth to withstand occlusal forces is impaired. A tooth has lost the support of the surrounding bone. |
| Trauma | changes in function tooth not disease. |
