A diastema (pl.: diastemata, from Greek διάστημα, 'space') is a space or gap between two teeth. Many species of mammals have diastemata as a normal feature, most commonly between the incisors and molars. More colloquially, the condition may be referred to as gap teeth or tooth gap.
Diastema – Space between upper front two teeth; Fenestration of buccal bone [13] Compression of periodontal ligament near posterior teeth; Extrusion of posterior teeth; Increased lingual bone thickness, decreased buccal bone thickness [13] One of the limits of expansion is the zygomatic buttress. It is known that this anatomical bony complex ...
When space exists between the contacts of the maxillary central incisors, the condition is referred to as a diastema or "gap tooth." One frequent cause of the space is the presence of a large labial frenum from the upper lip extending near the teeth. Treatment depends upon the cause and extent of the gap.
Diastematomyelia is a "dysraphic state" of unknown embryonic origin, but is probably initiated by an accessory neurenteric canal (an additional embryonic spinal canal.).) This condition may be an isolated phenomenon or may be associated with other segmental anomalies of the vertebral bodies such as spina bifida, kyphoscoliosis, butterfly vertebra, hemivertebra and block vertebrae which are ...

Precanine teeth are often replaced by a large diastema in therapsids. [5] [10] Kenomagnathus had both precanine teeth and a diastema, which fills the gap between basal synapsids and therapsids to some extent. It reflects what would have been an ongoing transition, which other stem-mammals with diastemata would also have gone through.
A diastema is a gap between two adjacent teeth. Diastema may refer to: Diastema, a genus of moths in the family Noctuidae; Diastema, a flowering plant in the family ...
