Predental period
Gum pad : Definition- alveolar process at birth Shape- upper gum pad is horse shoe shape & lower gum pad is U shape Color- pink Consistancy firm
Flash terminal
Distal step
Mesial step
The roots of central incisor are also forced together thus causing midline diastema
INTER-TRANSITIONAL PERIOD
No significant change occurs at this stage
The mixed dentition period Lee way space : the sum of the mesiodistal
width of the primary canine and the primary first and second molars is larger than the sum of the permanent canine and first and second premolars --- This difference is called the leeway space and is present in both the maxillary and mandibular arch. The leeway space is larger in the mandibular arch (3.4mm) than in the maxillary arch (1.9mm).
Molar relationship Distal surface of the distal marginal ridge of upper 6 contacts and occludes with the mesial surface of the mesial marginal ridge of lower 7 the mesiobuccal cusp of upper 6 lies in the groove between the mesial and middle cusps of lower 6 the mesiolingual cusp of 6 seats in the central fossa of 6.
