shedding of teeth-1

No	Questions	Answer
1	What is shedding of teeth	The physiologic process resulting in elimination of the deciduous dentition in referred as shedding
2	Shedding of a deciduous teeth is a result of resorption of	Roots and periodontal ligament
3	The pattern of resorption in a exfoliating teeth is determined by	Erupting permanent tooth
4	Resorption of the roots of the  deciduous incisors & canines begins on their	Lingual surface
5	The apical positioning of permanent tooth germ most often fails in	Mandibular incisors
6	Resorption of deciduous molar roots is initiated at the	Inner surface
7	The bicuspids erupt in the position of the	Deciduous molars
8	The cells responsible for the removal of dental hard tissue are the	Odontoclasts
9	Odontoclasts have demonstrable high quantities of enzyme	Acid phosphatase
10	Deciduous single rooted tooth is usually shed	Before complete root resorption
11	A typical shed deciduous molar have	No roots; partial crown
12	Remnants of deciduous teeth  are most frequently found in association with	Permanent premolars
13	The fate of remnants of deciduous teeth	Remain embedded in the jaw; Be encased in layers of dentin; Be ultimately exfoliated
14	Remnants of deciduous teeth are frequently associated with premolars because the	Roots of the lower 2nd deciduous molar is divergent
15	Retained deciduous teeth are invariably	Out of function
16	The most common retained deciduous tooth is the	Upper lateral incisor
17	If a permanent tooth is ankylosed then the deciduous predecessor is	Retained
18	If the permanent lateral incisor is missing the deciduous tooth is resorbed under pressure of the erupting	Permanent canine
19	The resorption of the deciduous lateral incisor when the permanent lateral incisor is missing is simultaneous with that of the	Deciduous canine
