Description:

The course provides the dental hygiene student with a conceptual framework for understanding the growth and development of oral structures as well as an overview of the perinatal events that begin their growth. Microscopic structures of the oral tissues, growth and development of the face and oral cavity will be studied to reinforce lecture topics. A detailed study of the development of the deciduous and permanent dentition is presented along with the common developmental disturbances and anomalies that sometimes occur during the complex pattern of growth and development. The knowledge obtained from this course will provide a basis for further study in oral pathology and periodontology, which will explore other conditions of the oral cavity. (Prerequisite: ADEC 111)
