  2. Universal Numbering System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Numbering_System

    Universal numbering system. This is a dental practitioner view, so tooth number 1, the rear upper tooth on the patient's right, appears on the left of the chart. The Universal Numbering System, sometimes called the "American System", is a dental notation system commonly used in the United States. [1] [2]

  3. Dentate nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentate_nucleus

    The eight cerebellar nuclei, located within the deep white matter of each cerebellar hemisphere, are grouped into pairs, with one of each pair in each of the two hemispheres. As a chunk of tissue, the dentate nucleus with overlying cerebellar cortex makes up a functional unit called the cerebrocerebellum. Thus, there is a part of cerebellum ...

  4. Dental notation - Wikipedia

    The upper teeth are denoted I 1, I 2, C −, Pm 3, Pm 4, M 1, M 2, and M 3. Left or right has to be specified. The lower teeth are I 1, I 2, C −, Pm 3, Pm 4, M 1, M 2, and M 3. The reason the premolars are labeled 3 and 4 is that in earlier primates there were two other premolars between them and the canines. [5]

    [1] [2] The dentate gyrus is part of the trisynaptic circuit, a neural circuit of the hippocampus, thought to contribute to the formation of new episodic memories, [3] [4] the spontaneous exploration of novel environments [4] and other functions. [5] The dentate gyrus has toothlike projections from which it is named. [6]

    The MNTN is located in the brainstem, more specifically (sources vary) spanning the length of the midbrain [2] /in the caudal midbrain and rostral pons. [1] It is situated (sources vary) near [ 1 ] /within [ 2 ] the periaqueductal gray , lateral to the cerebral aqueduct .

  7. Enamel organ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enamel_organ

    Tooth development begins at week 6 in utero, in the oral epithelium. The process is divided into three stages: Initiation; Morphogenesis and; Histogenesis [2]; At the end of week 7 i.u., localised proliferations of cells in the dental laminae form round and oval swellings known as tooth buds, which will eventually develop into mesenchymal cells and surround the enamel organ.

    This photo shows teeth #2-5 (Universal numbering system). Tooth #3, the upper right first molar, has an MO (mesial-occlusal) gold inlay. This molar is both posterior, as well as distal, to the premolars in front of it. Most of the principal terms can be combined using their corresponding combining forms (such as mesio-for mesial and disto-for ...

    The names of these teeth are: (1) Incisors, there are eight incisors located in the front of the mouth (four on the top and four on the bottom). They have sharp, chisel-shaped crowns that cut food. (2) Cuspids (or canine tooth), the four cuspids are next to each incisor. Cuspids have a pointed edge to tear food.
