Reading Comprehension
Part 1 Read the text. The Perfect Job? Many students have dreams about what job they would like to do in the future. How about you? Would you like to be a doctor or a lawyer? Maybe an actor or a writer? Well, there is a job in Australia at the moment that people are calling the perfect job! Its on a tropical island with clear blue skies and golden beaches and for twelve hours work a month, for half a year, you can earn 70,000! In Australia, they are looking for someone to stay on Hamilton Island. This is a tropical island in the Great Barrier Reef. The person will live in a beautiful three bedroom villa with a swimming pool and the house is free! The job isnt very difficult. Its caretaker of the island. Usually a caretaker looks after buildings for the people who live there, but this caretaker will look after the island. There isnt a lot to do. He or she has to feed some fish and collect the letters from the people on the island a bit like a postman! There is another part of the job too. The caretaker has to visit lots of little islands in the area and learn all about them. Then he has to write about them on a blog and make videos. The Australians want more tourists to visit the area. That is the really important part of the job. So, what are the qualifications for this wonderful job? Well, they want someone who likes living in warm temperatures. This person must sail, swim and like taking photographs! And he must like animals and exploring new places. It sounds perfect to me!

Reading comprehension assignment # 3


The digestive system
1. You are going to read a passage called How Digestion Works. Decide which of these words may appear in it. Put a cross (X) to the ones you think will appear in the text: Air Child Movement Analyze Cup Pancreas Blood Gland Ring Brain Heart Saliva Canal Long Tea Centimeters Lungs Travels 2. Now read the text and/or listen to a recording of it and find out: (Remember to apply the TEN RULES FOR COMPETENT READERS). How Digestion Works The digestive system is made up of the alimentary canal (also called the digestive tract) and the other abdominal organs that play a part in digestion, such as the liver and pancreas. The alimentary canal is the long tube of organs including the esophagus, stomach, and intestines that runs from the mouth to the anus. An adult's digestive tract is about 30 feet (about 9 meters) long. Digestion begins in the mouth, well before food reaches the stomach. When we see, smell, taste, or even imagine a tasty meal, our salivary glands, which are located under the tongue and near the lower jaw, begin producing saliva. This flow of saliva is set in motion by a brain reflex that's triggered when we sense food or think about eating. In response to this sensory stimulation, the brain sends impulses through the nerves that control the salivary glands, telling them to prepare for a meal. As the teeth tear and chop the food, saliva moistens it for easy swallowing. A digestive enzyme called amylase, which is found in saliva, starts to break down some of the carbohydrates (starches and sugars) in the food even before it leaves the mouth. Swallowing, which is accomplished by muscle movements in the tongue and mouth, moves the food into the throat, or pharynx. The pharynx, a passageway for food and air, is about 5 inches (12.7 centimeters) long. A flexible flap of tissue called the epiglottis reflexively closes over the windpipe when we swallow to prevent choking. From the throat, food travels down a muscular tube in the chest called the esophagus. Waves of muscle contractions called peristalsis force food down through the esophagus to the stomach. A person normally isn't aware of the movements of the esophagus, stomach, and intestine that take place as food passes through the digestive tract. At the end of the esophagus, a muscular ring or valve called a sphincter allows food to enter the stomach and then squeezes shut to keep food or fluid from flowing back up into the esophagus. The stomach muscles churn and mix the food with acids and enzymes, breaking it into much smaller, digestible pieces. An acidic environment is needed for the digestion that takes place in the stomach. Glands in the stomach lining produce about 3 quarts (2.8 liters) of these digestive juices each day. Most substances in the food we eat need further digestion and must travel into the intestine before being absorbed. When it's empty, an adult's stomach has a volume of one fifth of a cup (1.6 fluid ounces), but it can expand to hold more than 8 cups (64 fluid ounces) of food after a large meal.

3. Now write down:

They are responsible for _______. The process begins in the _____. The ______ ________ produce ______ after the brain sends an impulse to them. _____ makes the food softer to swallow and an enzyme, called ______, starts to process food in the ______. Then food goes down the ______ and the ______ closes the passage. Then food goes down the ______ thanks to a muscular movement called ________. Then food enters the ______, and the ______ closes the passage- it functions like a valve. The ____ and ______ in the stomach help process the food a bit more. Further digestion happens in the ________. 5. Are these statements True (T) or False (F)?

Basic Anatomy of the Mouth and Teeth
You are going to read a text called Basic Anatomy of the Mouth and Teeth. Before you read it: 1. Predict five words that will appear: E.G. : teeth _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ (Where can you find this vocabulary?) 2. Ask four questions that you expect the text to answer: E.G. How many teeth are there in the mouth? ______________________________________________ ______________________________________________ ______________________________________________ ______________________________________________ (Use Where/ Why/ How many/ What. Do... Does... Is... Are... Is there... are there....) 3. Now read the text. Check () the words that appear and the questions that it answers. Write the answers to the questions. 4. What is the difference between these words? tooth - teeth

Basic Anatomy of the Mouth and Teeth The entrance to the digestive tract, the mouth carbohydrates even before food enters the is lined with mucous membranes. The stomach. membrane-covered roof of the mouth is called The lips are covered with skin on the outside the palate. The front part consists of a bony and with slippery mucous membranes on the portion called the hard palate, with a fleshy inside of the mouth. The major lip muscle, rear part called the soft palate. The hard palate called the orbicularis oris, allows for the lips' divides the mouth and the nasal passages mobility. The reddish tint of the lips comes above. The soft palate forms a curtain from underlying blood vessels. The inside between the mouth and the throat, or pharynx, portion of both lips is connected to the gums. to the rear. The soft palate contains the uvula, the dangling flesh at the back of the mouth. There are several types of teeth. Incisors are The tonsils are located on either side of the the squarish, sharp-edged teeth in the front of uvula and look like twin pillars holding up the the mouth. There are four on the bottom and opening to the pharynx. four on the top. On either side of the incisors A bundle of muscles extends from the floor of the mouth to form the tongue. The upper surface of the tongue is covered with tiny bumps called papillae. These contain tiny pores that are our taste buds. Four main kinds of taste buds are found on the tongue those that sense sweet, salty, sour, and bitter tastes. Three pairs of salivary glands secrete saliva, which contains a digestive enzyme called amylase that starts the breakdown of are the sharp canines. The upper canines are sometimes called eyeteeth. Behind the canines are the premolars, or bicuspids. There are two sets, or four premolars, in each jaw. The molars, situated behind the premolars, have points and grooves. There are 12 molars three sets in each jaw called the first, second, and third molars. The third molars are the wisdom teeth, thought by some to have

evolved thousands of years ago when human diets consisted of mostly raw foods that required extra chewing power. But because they can crowd out the other teeth or cause problems like pain or infection, a dentist might need to remove them. Human teeth are made up of four different types of tissue: pulp, dentin, enamel, and cementum. The pulp is the innermost portion of the tooth and consists of connective tissue, nerves, and blood vessels, which nourish the tooth. The pulp has two parts the pulp chamber, which lies in the crown, and the root canal, which is in the root of the tooth. Blood vessels and nerves enter the root through a small hole in its tip and extend through the canal into the pulp chamber.

Dentin surrounds the pulp. A hard yellow substance, it makes up most of the tooth and is as hard as bone. It's the dentin that gives teeth their yellowish tint. Enamel, the hardest tissue in the body, covers the dentin and forms the outermost layer of the crown. It enables the tooth to withstand the pressure of chewing and protects it from harmful bacteria and changes in temperature from hot and cold foods. Both the dentin and pulp extend into the root. A bony layer of cementum covers the outside of the root, under the gum line, and holds the tooth in place within the jawbone. Cementum is also as hard as bone.

5. Are these statements True (T) or False (F)? Correct the false statements: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) h) i) j) k) l) m) n) The palate is covered by a membrane. The hard palate is fleshy. The uvula is between the tonsils at the front of the mouth. The papillae can perceive four main kinds of taste. Seven glands secrete saliva. The lips are completely covered by membranes. The blood running through the lips makes them red. Incisors and canines are square and they can cut well. We have a total of eight premolars and 12 molars. Wisdom teeth are very useful at present. There are nerves in the pulp. The pulp chamber and the root canal are two parts of the pulp. They are disconnected. Dentin is not tissue, it is a bone. Cementum protects the tooth from bacteria.

6. Vocabulary: Group these words. Give a title to each group. Bicuspids Bitter Blood vessels Canines Cementum Chamber Crown Dentin Enamel Incisors Lips Membrane Molars Mouth Nerves Orbicularis oris Palate Papillae Pharynx Pores Premolars Pulp Root Root canal Salty Sour Sweet Taste buds Tongue Tonsils Uvula Wisdom teeth

Bones
1. Write down 5 words in Spanish related to bones. ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ 2. Now read the text. Tick the ones that appear and write their name in English under them.

Think back to last Halloween for a minute. Wherever you looked, there were vampires, ghosts, or bony skeletons grinning back at you. Vampires and ghosts don't really exist, but skeletons sure do! A It's time to look at all your bones the adult human body has 206 of them! What Are Bones Made Of? If you've ever seen a real skeleton or fossil in a museum, you might think that all bones are dead. Although bones in museums are dry, hard, or crumbly, the bones in your body are different. The bones that make up your skeleton are all very much alive, growing and changing all the time like other parts of your body. Almost every bone in your body is made of the same materials: The outer surface of bone is called the periosteum (say: pare-ee-os-tee-um). It's a thin, dense membrane that contains nerves and blood vessels that nourish the bone. B Within the compact bone are many layers of cancellous (say: kan-sell-us) bone, which looks a bit like a sponge. Cancellous bone is not quite as hard as compact bone, but it is still very strong. C

3. Match the missing paragraphs in the correct blank: A, B or C: UNDERLINE the words in the text and the paragraphs that helped you connect them. In many bones, the cancellous bone protects the innermost part of the bone, the bone marrow (say: mair-oh). Bone marrow is sort of like a thick jelly, and its job is to make blood cells The next layer is made up of compact bone. This part is smooth and very hard. It's the part you see when you look at a skeleton.

Every single person has a skeleton made up of many bones. These bones give your body structure, let you move in many ways, protect your internal organs, and more.

Muscular System 1. Read the text, trying to understand the general meaning. Look up only key words in the dictionary. Use pictures and typography to help you. 2. Make an English-Spanish glossary containing at least 20 new words. Include the English word, the Spanish word and a simple sentence in English using that word that helps you remember it or understand it. 3. Do the Tasks that follow the text.

Muscular System
Muscle System Amazing Facts: There are about 60 muscles in the face. It takes 20 muscles to smile and over 40 to frown. The longest muscle in the body is the sartorius, from the outside of the hip, down and across to the inside of the knee. The smallest muscle in the body is the stapedius; deep in the ear it is thinner than cotton thread. The biggest muscle in the body is the gluteus maximus, in the buttock. The human body consists of over 600 muscles. Muscles assist in the pumping of blood throughout your body, they help you lift items, and allow you to move with help from the skeletal system. Some of the muscles you have control of (voluntary action) and others you have no control over (involuntary). Thousands of small fibers make up a single muscle. Contained within your body are three different types of muscles: smooth, cardiac, and skeletal. Smooth muscles are called involuntary muscles (you have no control over these muscles) your brain controls these muscles for you. Smooth muscles control the contractions in your organs, blood vessels, your intestinal track, and your bladder, and in women the uterus. With in the stomach and intestinal track smooth muscles contract and release in order for food to move from one area to another. Where your bladder is concerned when the muscles are relaxed you do not have to go to the bathroom, but when they begin to contract they help push the urine out of your bladder. Another area where smooth muscles can be found is behind your eyes; they help keep your eyes focused. The cardiac muscle is commonly known as the heart. The muscles of the heart are very thick and are also an involuntary muscle. Within the heart are special cells that control the heartbeat known as a pacemaker. These are the cells that have broken down or quit working when someone has a pacemaker surgically implanted.

Skeletal Muscle also known as Striated Muscles because of the light and dark parts of the muscle that make them look like they are striped. These muscles are found in bundles and can be seen rippling under the skin when they are moved. When these muscles are exercised they retain a firm tone and can be enlarged by lifting weights. The opposite is also true; when the muscles are not used they diminish in size and weaken.

Skeletal muscles allow you to kick a football, allow you to make a muscle to show how strong you are. As you can see by the diagram above these types of muscles are attached to the skeletal system by tendons. These muscles are voluntary and you control how they move. These muscles are among the most powerful muscles in your body. They are located in your arms, legs, neck, and back. They allow you to lift, push, kick, rotate your neck and back. Voluntary muscles are muscles that you have control over and the brain and the nervous system control this muscle movement. The part of the brain that controls these movements is regulated by the part of the brain known as the cerebral motor cortex and the cerebellum. When movement is needed the motor cortex sends an electrical signal down through the spinal column to the nerves in the muscles that causes them to contract. The right side of the motor cortex controls the left side of the body and the left side of the motor cortex controls the right side of the body. Face Muscles control facial expressions: your smile, eyes, frown, eyebrows, wiggle your nose or ears (if you can do that). These muscles do not attach to bone they attach under your skin! When you consider your facial muscles dont forget about your tongue. This is the only muscle in the body that is only attached at one end and it is not just one muscle it is composed of several muscles that work together and they allow you to stick out your tongue, talk, chew, and wiggle it around. The sense of taste originates in your mouth with your tongue, but the nose also has an effect on your taste.

Fun Facts about your Tongue: A single taste bud contains 50100 taste cells representing all 5-taste sensations. Each taste cell has receptors situated at the top or tip surface. Those give rise to the sensations of salty and sour, sweet, bitter, and umami. Umami is a Japanese word meaning "savory" or "meaty" and thus applies to the sensation of savorinessspecifically, to the detection of glutamates (sodium salt ) which are especially common in meats, cheese and other protein-heavy foods. A single taste cell seems to be restricted to expressing only a single type of receptor (except for bitter receptors). Taste receptor cells are connected, through an ATP-releasing synapse (a junction between two nerve cells) to a sensory neuron leading back to the brain. The sensation of taste like all sensations resides in the brain. In most cases women have more taste buds than men. The taste buds located at the back of the tongue are arranged to form a V with the angle pointing backward; they transmit the sensation of bitterness. Those at the tip of the tongue transmit sweetness, whereas saltiness and sourness are transmitted from the papillae on the sides of the tongue. Approximately 80-90% of what we perceive as "taste" actually is due to the sense of smell. Just think about how dull food tastes when you have a head cold or a stuffed up nose. There are a lot of major muscles in the body, well there are so many that it will be difficult to list them all in this unit. Here are just a few:

The muscles in the shoulders are called deltoids. The pectoral muscles are located on either side of your chest. Under the ribs you can find your rectus abdominus or abdominal muscles that allow you to do sit ups. When people make a muscle with the upper part of their arm they are contracting they biceps. On the front of your thighs are the quadriceps or quads and can be developed and made stronger if you run, ride a bike, and play sports. When you sit down you are sitting on your gluteus maximus or gloots for short.

The Respiratory System
1. Read the following article, ignoring the blanks. Write the main idea of each paragraph in the space provided.

How does the respiratory system work?


by Barbara J Power The human body, as with all mammals, requires oxygen to survive. Oxygen is necessary for energy production at the cellular level, while carbon dioxide, a metabolic waste product, must be removed from the body to avoid life-threatening illnesses. The respiratory systems function is to accomplish both tasks through a mechanism called respiration, better known as breathing. Main idea: _____________________________________________________________

For medical and explanatory purposes, the human respiratory system is divided into the ______ and _______ airways. The upper airway consists of the nose, nostrils and mucous-lined nasal cavity, the mouth and throat (pharynx), and the larynx or voice box. The lower airway begins at the glottis, (opening of the trachea) and consists of the trachea (windpipe), the bronchial tree, and the lungs. The bronchial tree is a continuation of the ________ and divides into the right and left bronchial tubes, one for each lung. The large bronchial ____ branch into smaller and smaller bronchioles until ending in clusters of microscopic alveoli. There are approximately 300 million ______ in the lungs of a human adult with over 160 square millimeters of surface to bind with capillaries. Main idea: _____________________________________________________________

Air can be inhaled through the _______ or mouth; however, the nostrils provide a natural cleaning and moisturizing service that prepares the oxygen for the transport through the respiratory system to the alveoli. The alveoli transfer oxygen into the bloodstream through contact with capillaries, the tiniest of blood vessels. Here the oxygen attaches to hemoglobin and is carried throughout the body. In exchange the capillaries deliver carbon dioxide to the alveoli to be exhaled out through the respiratory system. Main idea: _____________________________________________________________

Breathing is controlled by the Medulla Oblongata in the brainstem, while the mechanics of breathing are accomplished by the coordinated effort of the intercostal muscles located between the ribs and the diaphragm The _______ is a large muscle that divides the body cavity into two spaces. The lower abdominal cavity contains the stomach, intestines, liver, spleen, kidneys, and other major ______, while the upper thoracic cavity holds the ribs, heart, lungs, and major arteries and veins. Main idea: _____________________________________________________________

When the Medulla Oblongata signals the body to breath, the _______ contracts downward, lengthening the thoracic cavity. Receiving the same signal, the intercostal muscles also contract, causing the rib cage to lift up and out. Main idea: _____________________________________________________________

Since the pleural or outer lining of the lungs is connected to the thoracic wall, they are pulled open, thus drawing in air to fill the larger space. When the muscles relax, the ______s elasticity pulls them back into the resting position and carbon dioxide is expelled, ending the breathing cycle.

Adults normally breathe 16 to 20 _____ a minute, meaning they take one breath about every three ________. Children, however, breathe at different rates according to age. The following are general guideline for healthy children: Infants to 1 yr 30 - 40 breaths per minute Toddlers 1 3 yr 25 35 Preschooler 3 -6 yr 25 30 School age 6 12 yr 20 25 Teenagers 12 18 yr 15 - 20 Main idea: _____________________________________________________________

Without oxygen, the body dies, with brain death beginning in only four short minutes. Illness or trauma to the ________ system can become life threatening, requiring immediate _______ attention. If a person is having difficulty breathing, calling 9-1-1 can save a life. A healthy, fully functioning respiratory system greatly enhances the length and quality of life. The airway is no different from the rest of the human body in that it needs daily and ongoing care. Protecting the airway from smoke, drugs, poison gases and fumes can help keep the ________ functioning for all the decades of a lifetime.

The 1___________ are hollow spaces in the bones of the head. Small openings connect them to the nasal cavity. The functions they serve are not clearly understood, but include helping to regulate the temperature and humidity of air breathed in, as well as to lighten the bone structure of the head and to give resonance to the voice. The 2_______________ (nose) is the preferred entrance for outside air into the Respiratory System. The hairs that line the inside wall are part of the air-cleansing system. Air also enters through the 3______________ (mouth), especially in people who have a mouthbreathing habit or whose nasal passages may be temporarily obstructed, as by a cold. The 4____________ are overgrown lymph tissue at the top of the throat. When they interfere with breathing, they are generally removed. The lymph system, consisting of nodes (knots of cells) and connecting vessels, carries fluid throughout the body. This system helps resist body infection by filtering out foreign matter, including germs, and producing cells (lymphocytes) to fight them. The 5_________ are lymph nodes in the wall of the pharynx that often become infected. They are an unimportant part of the germ-fighting system of the body. When infected, they are generally removed. The 6_____________ (throat) collects incoming air from the nose and passes it downward to the trachea (windpipe). The 7____________ is a flap of tissue that guards the entrance to the trachea, closing when anything is swallowed that should go into the esophagus and stomach. The 8_____________ (voice box) contains the vocal cords. It is the place where moving air being breathed in and out creates voice sounds. The 9_______________ is the passage leading from the mouth and throat to the stomach. The 10____________ (windpipe) is the passage leading from the pharynx to the lungs. The 11___________ are bones supporting and protecting the chest cavity. They move to a limited degree, helping the lungs to expand and contract. The trachea divides into the two main 12___________ (tubes), one for each lung. These, in turn, subdivide further into bronchioles. The 13_____________ is divided into three 14__________, or sections. The left lung is divided into two 15__________. The 16__________ are the two membranes, that surround each lobe of the lungs and separate the lungs from the chest wall. The bronchial tubes are lined with 17_________ (like very small hairs) that have a wave-like motion. This motion carries 18_________ (sticky phlegm or liquid) upward and out into the throat, where it is either coughed up or swallowed. The mucus catches and holds much of the dust, germs, and other unwanted matter that has invaded the lungs and thus gets rid of it. The 19___________ is the strong wall of muscle that separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity. By moving downward, it creates suction to draw in air and expand the lungs. The smallest subdivisions of the bronchi are called 20__________, at the end of which are the alveoli (plural of alveolus). The 21____________ are the very small air sacs that are the destination of air breathed in. The 22 ____________ are blood vessels that are imbedded in the walls of the alveoli. Blood passes through the capillaries, brought to them by the 23_________________ and taken away by the 24 _____________. While in the capillaries the blood discharges carbon dioxide into the alveoli and takes up oxygen from the air in the alveoli.

Universal Numbering System
1. Read the following text and complete the blanks.

Universal Numbering System (used in U.S)


The Universal Numbering System is a simplified method of identifying teeth that is approved and adopted ____ the American Dental Association. Adults In the universal tooth numbering system, tooth number 1 is the patient's upper right third molar, on the right _____ of the mouth in the upper (maxillary) ______. Numbering of _______ continues along the upper teeth toward the front and across to the last ________ tooth back on the top left side (number 16). The tooth numbering continues by assigning teeth numbers descending to the _______ left third molar (number 17) and follows the ________ (mandibular) jaw up to the tooth farthest back on the bottom _______ side of the mouth (________ 32). All teeth that should be there are numbered, including those teeth that have been removed for any reason or have not erupted yet (e.g. _______ teeth).

Oral health and disease


Ruth Holt, Graham Roberts, Crispian Scully
From http://www.bmj.com/content/320/7250/1652.full

A healthy dentition and mouth is important to both quality of life and nutrition, and oral disease may affect systemic health, as discussed in later articles in this series.

Diagram of a tooth and supporting structures

Teeth form mainly from neuroectoderm and comprise a crown of insensitive enamel surrounding sensitive dentine and a root that has no enamel covering. Teeth contain a vital pulp (nerve) and are supported by the periodontal ligament, through which roots are attached into sockets in the alveolar bone of the jaws (maxilla and mandible). The fibres of the periodontal ligament attach through cementum to the dentine surface. The alveolus is covered by the gingivae, or gums, which, when healthy, are pink, stippled, and tightly bound down and form a close fitting cuff with a small sulcus (gingival crevice) round the neck (cervical margin) of each tooth.

Healthy dentition, increasingly seen as caries declines

The primary (deciduous or milk) dentition comprises four incisors, two canines, and four molars in each jaw (total of 20 teeth). The normal permanent (adult) dentition comprises four incisors, two canines, four premolars, and six molars in each jaw (32 teeth).

Tooth development begins in the fetus, at about 28 days in utero. Indeed, all the primary and some of the permanent dentition start to develop in the fetus. Mineralisation of the primary dentition begins at about 14 weeks in utero, and all primary teeth are mineralising by birth. The permanent incisors and first molars begin to mineralise at or close to the time of birth, while the other permanent teeth start to mineralise later. Tooth eruption occurs after formation and mineralisation of the crown are largely complete but before the roots are fully formed. Neonatal teeth are uncommon and may be loose. They may damage the mother's nipple during suckling, in which case they might need to be removed.

Eruption of primary teeth may be preceded by a bluish gingival swelling, usually a result of a transient haematoma and, rarely, an eruption cyst, which usually ruptures spontaneously. Tooth eruption may be associated with irritability, disturbed sleep, cheek flushing, drooling, and sometimes a small rise in temperature or a circumoral rash, but it does not cause diarrhoea or bronchitis (although these may occur coincidentally).

A delay in eruption of up to 12 months may be of little or no importance in an otherwise healthy child. Localised delays often result from local factors such as a tooth in the path of eruption, insufficient space in the dental arch, or dental infection. Ectopic positioning and impaction most often affect the third molars, second premolars, and canines, possibly because these are the last teeth to erupt. 2. Are these statements True or False? a. Teeth are formed from a substance called pulp. b. Cementum joins the dentine to the periodontal ligament. c. Tooth development begins in utero. d. Root formation finalises before eruption. e. Full primary dentition has 20 teeth. f. Full permanent dentition has 20 teeth.

Oral health and disease


Ruth Holt, Graham Roberts, Crispian Scully
From http://www.bmj.com/content/320/7250/1652.full

Early loss of teeth Early tooth loss is usually because of extraction as a result of dental caries or, in adults, periodontal disease. Teeth, particularly incisors, may also be lost through trauma, such as from sports, assaults, or other injuries. Unexplained early tooth loss in children or adults may be a feature of Down's syndrome, diabetes, immune defects, or non-accidental injury, or of rare conditions such as eosinophilic granuloma, hypophosphatasia, or Papillon-Lefvre syndrome (palmoplantar hyperkeratosis). Variations in tooth number Teeth missing from the normal series may have failed to develop (hypodontia) or to erupt or have been lost prematurely. Hypodontia is not uncommon and is probably of genetic origin. The teeth most often missing are the third molars, second premolars, and maxillary lateral incisors, and other teeth may be reduced in size. Several teeth may be absent in disorders such as Down's syndrome and ectodermal dysplasia.

Hypodontia with many missing permanent teeth, including upper lateral incisors and lower central incisors. This appearance may be seen in ectodermal dysplasia

Mixed dentitionIt is not uncommon to see what seem to be two rows of teeth in the lower incisor region, when permanent teeth erupt before the primary incisors have exfoliated. This is particularly likely when there is inadequate space to accommodate the larger permanent teeth. The situation usually resolves as primary incisors are lost and the mandible grows.

Supernumerary teeth erupting palatal to upper central incisors. Such teeth often remain unerupted and may impede eruption of permanent incisors

Supplemental teethExtra teeth are uncommon. Of unknown cause, they are most often seen in the regions of the maxillary lateral incisors, premolars, and third molars. Additional teeth of abnormal form (supernumerary teeth) are also rare. They are usually small and conical in shape and are seen particularly in the maxillary midline, where they may remain unerupted and may cause a permanent incisor to impact. Additional teeth often occur alone in otherwise healthy individuals but

occasionally occur in association with rare disorders such as cleidocranial dysplasia and Gardner's syndrome. Tooth size, shape, structure, and colour A variety of local and generalised factors may act during tooth formation or mineralisation. Although tooth development in utero is generally well protected, it may be affected by maternal disease and intrauterine infection and by systemic disturbance during early life. Intrauterine infections that may affect tooth structure include rubella and cytomegalovirus. The classic hutchinsonian incisors and Moon's (or mulberry) molars of congenital syphilis are extremely uncommon in developed countries.

Dilacerated upper central incisor resulting from injury to primary predecessor during permanent tooth development. Severely malformed teeth such as this may require removal, but less severely affected teeth may be treated conservatively

Microdont upper left lateral incisor. The tooth is small in size and conical in form

Between birth and 6 years of age, the permanent teeth, particularly those of cosmetic importance, may be damaged. Upper permanent incisors may show defects as a consequence of trauma to the primary predecessor. Local infection or trauma may cause a defect in a single tooth or group of teeth. Malformed lower premolars secondary to periapical infection of their primary predecessors are not uncommon and are termed Turner's teeth. More generalised defects may be seen in a range of systemic disorders (prematurity, infections, jaundice, malabsorption, and cytotoxic therapy) during tooth formation and mineralisation, the defect relating to the timing, severity, and duration of the disorder. Teeth, especially the third molars, may vary in size, form, and structure because of genetic factors. Microdontia (teeth smaller than usual) is largely of genetic origin and usually affects the lateral incisors, which are conical or peg shaped. Teeth that are larger than normal (megadont) are uncommon. Double teeth may be seen occasionally. These seem to be the result of fusion of two teeth and occur most often in the primary dentition, when they are likely to be followed by extra tooth elements in the succeeding permanent dentition. 2. Complete the following summary: a. b. c. d. e. f. Most tooth loss is due to ______, ______ disease, or ______. Early ______loss may have a systemic ______.

Tooth Eruption
Read the following text and do the exercises indicated in the 9.1 MECHANISMS OF TOOTH ERUPTION I. Theories of Tooth Eruption

Tooth eruption is traditionally considered to be a developmental process whereby the tooth moves in an axial direction from its location within the alveolar crypt of the jaw into a functional position within the oral cavity.

Summarise the main idea: ___________ occurs when the _____ moves from the ___________ to a ________________ in the ___________

Tooth eruption is a more general process, however, which includes certain posteruptive _____movements. These _______following eruption are those made ____ the tooth after it has reached its functional position in the occlusal plane. They may be divided into _____ categories: (1) movements made to accommodate the _______jaws, (2) those made to compensate for continued occlusal wear, and (3) those made to ____________interproximal wear. This article examines the possible _________of tooth eruption. Remarkably, for so basic a process, the mechanisms of tooth eruption are not well understood. Numerous theories of tooth eruption have been proposed. These ______ have involved almost all of the tissues in or near an erupting tooth. None of the theories can alone account for ____of the movements made by a tooth during its lifetime. In order to be clinically valid, a theory of tooth eruption must accommodate the following observations about the eruptive process: (1) teeth are moved in three dimensions of _____, (2) teeth arrive at a functional _________that is heritable, and (3) teeth erupt at varying, characteristic stage-specific ________.

Fill in the blanks with the following words: accommodate - all -by - growing -mechanisms movements -position - space speeds - three theories - tooth

First we will briefly review theories that are not serious contenders to satisfactorily explain tooth eruption. 1. Vascular pressure and blood vessel thrust. It is known that the teeth move in their sockets in synchrony with the arterial pulse, so local volume changes can produce limited tooth movement. Furthermore, spontaneous changes in blood pressure have been shown to influence eruptive behavior. Ground substance can swell from 30% to 50% by retaining additional water, so this to could create pressure. But since surgical excision of the growing root and associated tissues eliminates the periapical vasculature without stopping eruption, this means that the local vessels are not absolutely necessary for tooth eruption.

2. Pulpal pressure and pulpal growth. This theory says that the force exerted by the growth of cells is the result of multiplication of cells--analogous to the roots of a growing plant forcing pebbles aside. Yet, when a developing tooth is surgically removed and replaced by a silicone replica, that replica will erupt provided that the dental follicle is retained.

3. Traction by periodontal fibroblasts. Administration of lathyrogens show no disruption of the eruption of teeth in experimental animals. Lathryogens are drugs that specifically inhibit the formation of collagen crosslinks. The implication is that the eruptive force is unlikely to involve a tractional element that pulls the tooth toward the oral cavity.

Are these statements true or false? Correct the false statements. (Try to understand the main idea of each theory.) 1. It is possible that volume changes make tooth move. 2. The pulpal pressure theory is proved right with a silicone tooth. 3. The theory of Traction by periodontal fibroblasts was proved right with the use of drugs

In this next section, we review the theories that provide the most convincing data to explain tooth eruption in man and other mammalian species. These should be seriously considered. 1. Root elongation. Root formation would appear to be the obvious cause of tooth eruption since it undoubtedly causes an overall increase in the length of the tooth along with the crown moving occlusally. Yet, clinical observation, experimental studies, and histologic analysis argue strongly against such a conclusion. Remarkably, rootless teeth do erupt. This is most obvious in cases of

dentin dysplasia Type I and following irradiation. Some teeth erupt a greater distance than the total length of their roots, and teeth will still erupt after the completion of root formation or when the tissues forming the root--the apical papilla, Hertwig's epithelial root sheath, and periapical tissue--are surgically removed. 2. Alveolar bone remodeling. Alveolar bone growth, tooth development, and eruption of the teeth are interdependent. It is observed that the alveolar process forms during tooth development and is locally deficient in sites where primary or permanent teeth fail to develop. Similarly, alveolar bone loss is a consistent clinical finding in the edentulous patient. Formation of bone apical to developing teeth has long been proposed as one mechanism for eruption. There is no doubt that bone forms in these sites, but bone formation per se is not sufficient for tooth eruption. A good example to illustrate this is the presence of an unerupted dentition in osteopetrotic mutation in which bone formation is nearly normal or elevated and bone resorption greatly reduced. Osteopetrosis, sometimes called 'marble bones' is disseminated condensing osteopathy, a genetic disorder marked by bone sclerosis or defective skeletal remodeling. The same applies for cases of cleidocranial dysotosis in which deciduous teeth erupt and persist while permanent teeth erupt late or ectopically. Cleidocranial dysotosis is a familial disease characterized by abnormalities of the skull, teeth, and jaws. Alveolar bone growth involving turnover (resorption and formation) is required during tooth eruption. Bone resorption and bone formation are polarized around erupting teeth. These metabolic events depend upon the adjacent parts of the dental follicle. Thus, it appears that tooth eruption is a localized, bilaterally symmetrical event in alveolar bone that is regulated by the dental follicle proper, a derivative of cranial ectomesenchyme (neural crest). The strengths of this theory lie in explanations for the early events of tooth eruption since part of the follicle is lost after mucosal penetration. Nevertheless, the periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone proper are derivatives in part of the follicle, so that later events could be controlled by these and other related tissues. Then dental follicle proper is the thin, dense, ectomesenchymeal connective tissue investment of a developing tooth which surrounds the enamel organ. The fact that active eruption begins only after crown formation is complete suggests a role also for the enamel organ and its proteases in the early signaling of eruption. In addition, the proximity of the enamel organ and the dental follicle and their tight adherence in surgical manipulations indicate that many effects attributed above to the dental follicle proper may indeed be events initiated or controlled by the enamel organ or the reduced enamel epithelium. If this is the case, tooth eruption may be yet another example of collaborative epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in development.

3. Periodontal ligament. Formation and renewal of the periodontal ligament is associated with the continuous eruption of permanently growing rodent incisors. (Note well: continuously growing rat incisors are different than human teeth that have a limited period of growth.)

For teeth with a limited period of growth, the presence of a periodontal ligament does not assure eruption. In the case of osteopetrotic mutations, a periodontal ligament is present, but teeth do not

erupt. Therefore, the periodontal ligament cannot be essential for tooth eruption in man. Its role has been largely overstated due to experiments performed on continuously erupting rodent teeth.

Answer these questions 1. Are clinical observation, experimental studies, and histologic analysis for or against the Root elongation theory? Why? ________________ 2. What happens to the bone where teeth fail to develop? ____________ 3. Why do rodents incisors continue to grow? _____________________ Make questions for these answers 1. What ___________________ cause? It causes an overall increase in the length of the tooth 2. Is ___________________ tooth eruption? No, it isnt enough for tooth eruption. 3. Does __________________________ in humans? No, it doesnt assure eruption in humans with teeth with limited periods of growth.

Reading Comprehension Revision


The Skeletal System
1. Read this text and do the exercises that follow it. Skeletal System As the structural framework for the human body, the skeletal system consists mainly of the 206 or so bones of the skeletal system but also includes cartilages, ligaments, and other connective tissues that stabilize and interconnect them. Bones work in conjunction with the muscular system to aid in posture and locomotion. Many bones of the skeleton function as levers, which change the magnitude and direction of forces generated by skeletal muscle. Protection is a pivotal role occupied by the skeletal system, as many vital organs are encased within the skeletal cavities (eg. cranial and spinal), and bones form much of the structural basis for other body cavities (ex: thoracic and pelvic cavities). The skeletal system also serves as an important mineral reserve. For example, if blood levels of calcium or magnesium are low and the minerals are not available in the diet, they will be taken from the bones. Also, the skeletal system provides calcium needed for all muscular contraction. Finally, red blood cells, lymphocytes and other cells relating to the immune response are produced and stored in the bone marrow. Muscular System The muscular system is one of the most versatile systems in the body. The muscular system contains the heart, which constantly pumps blood through the body. The muscular system is also responsible for involuntary (e.g. goosebumps, digestion, breathing) and voluntary (e.g. walking, picking up objects) actions. Muscles also help protect organs in the body's cavities. The Muscular System The muscular system is the biological system of humans that produces movement. The muscular system, in vertebrates, is controlled through the nervous system, although some muscles, like cardiac muscle, can be completely autonomous. Muscle is contractile tissue and is derived from the mesodermal layer of embryonic germ cells. Its function is to produce force and cause motion, either locomotion or movement within internal organs. Much of muscle contraction occurs without conscious thought and is necessary for survival, like the contraction of the heart or peristalsis, which pushes food through the digestive system. Voluntary muscle contraction is used to move the body and can be finely controlled, such as movements of the finger or gross movements that of the biceps and triceps.

Muscle is composed of muscle cells (sometimes known as "muscle fibers"). Within the cells are myofibrils; myofibrils contain sarcomeres which are composed of actin and myosin. Individual

muscle cells are lined with endomysium. Muscle cells are bound together by perimysium into bundles called fascicles. These bundles are then grouped together to form muscle, and is lined by epimysium. Muscle spindles are distributed throughout the muscles, and provide sensory feedback information to the central nervous system. Skeletal muscle, which involves muscles from the skeletal tissue, is arranged in discrete groups. An example is the biceps brachii. It is connected by tendons to processes of the skeleton. In contrast, smooth muscle occurs at various scales in almost every organ, from the skin (in which it controls erection of body hair) to the blood vessels and digestive tract (in which it controls the caliber of a lumen and peristalsis, respectively).
