Introduction
Tooth Numbering
System
The combined primary and deciduous dentition result in a total
52 teeth a clear and convenient means of identification of
specific teeth is necessary .
There are several systems which are proposed for tooth
numbering system . these are :South African system
french system
Dutch System
Bosworth System
cincinnati system
The Dane or Haderups System
Reverse numeration system
Latin numeral system
Metcalf system
Crow system
US Army System
US Navy System
LowLands system
Universal System / ADA system
Zsigmonday / Palmer notation method
Zsigmondy/Palmer
System
It is oldest system also called as Grid or
Angular system
In this system Primary Dentition are
denoted by English Upper case Latter and
Permanent Dentition are denoted by
Number
ADA System or
Universal System
The Primary Dentition are denoted by
consecutive english upper case latter
starting from maxillary 2nd Molar
The Permanent Teeth are indicated by
number 1 to 32 .
FDI System
it is also referred as Two Digit System.
The first digit identifies the Quadrant to which tooth
belong and second digit denotes the tooth. Both digit
have to be pronounced separately.
for Permanent Dentition Quadrant are numbered 1 to 4
and tooth are numbered 1 to 8 from the midline
for Deciduous dentition the quadrant are 5 to 8 and
teeth are denoted 1 to 5 from the midline
Terminology related to
various tooth surfaces
The coronal portion of tooth is divided into surface.
Mesial: The surface of the tooth closest to the anterior
midline.
Distal: The surface of tooth away from the anterior midline.
labial: The surface of the tooth toward the lip.
Buccal: The tooth surface that is towards the cheek
Facial: The surface of tooth towards patients face
Terminology related to
Dental caries
Dental caries: Dental
caries is an infectious
microbiological
disease of teeth that
results in localised
dissolution of the
calcified tissue
According to Location
2.secondary
caries / Recurrent
caries: it occurs at
junction of a tooth
restoration and the
tooth and may
progress under the
restoration
According to Extent
According to Rate
Acute / Rampant caries : it refers to
disease that is rapidly damaging the tooth
.
Chronic / Arrested caries : it is slow or it
may be arrested after several active
phase.
Other terminology
related to Caries
Backward caries : when the spread of caries along DEJ
exceeds the caries in the contiguous enamel caries
extended in to this enamel from junction and is termed
Backward caries.
Forward caries : when caries cone in enamel is larger
or at least the same size as that dentin.
Residual caries : Caries that remains in a completed
tooth preparation whether by intention or accident.
Enameloplasty
it is removal of a shallow
enamel developmental
fissure or pit to create a
smooth saucer shaped
surface that is self
cleansing or easily cleaned
used when the fissure is no
deeper than one quarter to
one third the thickness of
the enamel.
Prophylactic Odontotomy
Infected Dentin
Carious dentin consist of
two distinct layers an outer
and inner.
the outer layer is called as
Infected Dentin.
it is not remineralizable and
it is more discoloured so
should be removed.
Affected Dentin
2.Attrition : it is
mechanical wear of the
incisal or occlusal
surface as a result of
functional or
parafunctional
movement of mandible
(tooth tooth contact )
it is of two type
Occlusal surface
attrition and proximal
surface attrition
3.Erosion : it is loss
of the tooth
structure surface by
chemicomechanical action
without any specific
role of
microorganism
5. Fracture
This refers to any break in continuity of tooth surface as a
result of traumatic injuries. fractures are commonly 3 types
1.Incomplete fracture not directly involving vital pulp: also
called as Greenstick fracture. its a very sensitive condition
2.complete fracture not involving Vital pulp: In this condition
pain is not associated usually , restorative treatment is
indicated
3.Fracture involving Vital pulp: it results in pulpal infection and
severe pain. immediate root canal therapy is indicated
otherwise the tooth must be extracted
Abbreviation
Classification of Tooth
Preparation
classification of tooth preparation according to anatomic area and by
the associated type of treatment was presented by Black and
designated as
Class I
Class II
Class III
Class IV
Class V
Since Blacks original classification an additional Class VI has been
added
Class I Cavity
This includes cavity preparation
involving pit and fissure area of
teeth. it involves following
area :
1 Occlusal pit and fissure in
posterior teeth
occlusal 2/3 of facial and lingual
surface of molar.
Lingual Pits of maxillary incisors
Class II Cavity
Class IV
This includes cavity
preparation on
proximal surface of
anterior teeth with
involvement of the
incisal angles
Class V cavity
This involves cavity preparation on the gingival 1/3
of the facial and lingual surfaces of all the teeth.
Class VI
This involves cavity preparation on incisal
edges of anterior teeth or the occlusal cusp
heights of posterior teeth
