PAEDIATRIC DENTISTRY - Coggle Diagram

- - - - 36 MONTHS: primary dentition complete, incisors are vertical and spaced, deep overbite present, anthropoid spaces mesial to maxillary canine and distal to mandibular canine, flush terminal plane
        
        6 YEARS: overbite decreases, spacing of anterior teeth, attrition of incisors
        
        MIXED DENTITION AT 6 YEARS eruption of mandibular 6's, mesial migration of primary molars, anthropoid spaces close, permanent molars in Class 1/2 relationship
        
        7-8 YEARS maxillary central incisors erupt spaced/proclined, maxillary lateral incisors often distally inclined, maxillay incisors labial to mandibular
        
        9-12 YEARS: primary canines/molars exfoliate, permanent molars drift forward into Leeway space and form Class I relationship, maxillary permanent canines palpable buccally by 10 years old
        
        11-12 YEARS: incisal spacing reduces as canines erupt (risk of overcrowding at this stage

  - - - Tooth may not erupt at same time as bilateral/counterpart but check if nothing after 6 months
- - - - CAUSES: frequent consumption of sugary drinks, long period of exposure e.g. overnight, low salivary flow at night, parental history of untreated caries
- - - - hypermineralised and porous enamel, irregular shape/distribution of dentine tubules, mild= opaque white/yellow patches, brown mottling if severe, symmetrical and bilateral lesions. Severe fluorosis actually causes hypoplasia, thin white lines early signs, more protein= more resistant to decay? More susceptible to decay once outer layer of enamel removed
