  2. Human tooth development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth_development

    Although tooth eruption occurs at different times for different people, a general eruption timeline exists. Typically, humans have 20 primary (baby) teeth and 32 permanent teeth. [43] Tooth eruption has three stages. The first, known as deciduous dentition stage, occurs when only primary teeth are visible. Once the first permanent tooth erupts ...

  3. Tooth eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_eruption

    Non-eruption of non-ankylosed teeth occurs due to an eruption mechanism that has failed leading to a posterior unilateral/bilateral open bite. [28] Infra occlusion is the primary hallmark of PFE. Primary teeth are most commonly affected and normally all teeth distal to the most mesially affected tooth will show characteristics of this disease.

  4. Dental analysis in archaeology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_analysis_in_archaeology

    Since teeth eruption follows a pattern, with the eruption of deciduous teeth occurring after birth to the end of infancy at the age of two, and permanent teeth erupting between the ages of five and fourteen, [7] observing which teeth are erupted and developing in a mandible, or whether a tooth is deciduous or permanent in isolated remains, can ...

  5. Human tooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth

    Bottom teeth of a seven-year-old, showing primary teeth (left), a lost primary tooth (middle), and a permanent tooth (right) Tooth eruption in humans is a process in tooth development in which the teeth enter the mouth and become visible. Current research indicates that the periodontal ligaments play an important role in tooth eruption.

  6. Intraosseous eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraosseous_eruption

    Intraosseous eruption is a stage of tooth eruption that directly precedes the baby tooth emerging from the gums. This stage involves the formation of root of a tooth which allows the tooth to erupt from the bone. It precedes the supraosseous eruption phase which consists of infragingival eruption and supragingival eruption.

  7. Dental anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_anatomy

    The lower right teeth begin with the number, "4". For primary teeth, the sequence of numbers goes 5, 6, 7, and 8 for the teeth in the upper right, upper left, lower left, and lower right respectively. As a result, any given tooth has three different ways to identify it, depending on which notation system is used. The permanent right maxillary ...

  8. Dental lamina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_lamina

    The most acknowledged theory for supernumerary teeth is hyperactivity of dental lamina. [6] On completion of the dentition, the dental lamina is usually destroyed and reabsorbed, but when remnants fail to resorb, it can continue to proliferate abnormally. This abnormal proliferation can form the extra tooth bud leading to supernumerary teeth ...

  9. Reduced enamel epithelium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_enamel_epithelium

    As the cells of the reduced enamel epithelium degenerate, the tooth is revealed progressively with its eruption into the mouth. The degeneration of reduced enamel epithelium also mediates the initial epithelial attachment to the tooth, which is called the junctional epithelium. The reduced enamel epithelium consist of: Inner enamel epithelium
