Anatomy atlas of the teeth


Introduction

This e-Anatomy module contains fifty four illustrations dedicated to the anatomy of the teeth.

These fully annotated anatomical illustrations are presented as a comprehensive atlas of the dental anatomy specifically designed for students in dentistry and medicine, residents and healthcare professionals.

 

Material and methods 

Fifty four illustrations have been created, covering the general anatomy of the teeth, the terminology and nomenclature used in dentistry (particularly for the surfaces, orientations, cusps and roots of the teeth), the different dental numbering systems (FDI World Dental Federation notation or Universal Numbering System) and the study of dental occlusion.


Each permanent tooth has been illustrated on a single image with a systematic approach (each illustration contains the mesial, distal, vestibular, palatal/lingual and occlusal views of each tooth).


These original anatomical illustrations and the labeling were done by Antoine Micheau MD (Radiologist - Montpellier, France), based on the Terminologia Anatomica 1. Some illustrations were partially drawn and  labeled by Gauthier Kervyn and Pierre Zabarino.

The illustrations have been grouped into different themes:

  • General Anatomy
  • Dental terminology and nomenclature
  • Dental occlusion
  • Maxillary dental arch
  • Mandibular dental arch
  • Panoramic X-ray diagram
  • Deciduous teeth
