4 Canines = 16-20 months
4 1st Molars = 12-16 months

age 2
 Dental formula
 Describes the number and
position of classes of teeth (half
of the mouth)
Deciduous teeth dental formula:
2I, 1C, 2M
2I, 1C, 2M
X 2 = 20
****No premolars!
Adolescence – Adult
 Permanent teeth enlarge and
develop
 Roots of deciduous teeth
reabsorbed
 Teeth loosen and fall out
 Begin to erupt from 7-13 years
of age
 Third molars (wisdom teeth)
emerge from 17-25 years
 May be absent!!
 Adult dental formula:
2I, 1C, 2P, 3M
2I, 1C, 2P, 3M
X 2 = 32
Tooth Troubles
 Cavities (caries)
Demineralization of
enamel by bacteria
In severe cases, erodes
the dentin of tooth
Most severe cases
erosion penetrates pulp
cavity
Tooth Troubles
 Gingivitis
Inflammation of the
gingiva caused by
plaque accumulation
Leads to…….
 Periodontitis
Infection of periodontal
ligament leading to its
destruction along with
