| tooth, deciduous | The 20 teeth of the first dentition, which are shed and replaced by the permanent teeth, usually by the age of six years. All deciduous teeth are normally expected to erupt by the age of two and a half years. (12 Dec 1998) |

| tooth discoloration | Any change in the hue, colour, or translucency of a tooth due to any cause. Restorative filling materials, drugs (both topical and systemic), pulpal necrosis, or haemorrhage may be responsible. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tooth erosion | Progressive loss of the hard substance of a tooth by chemical processes that do not involve bacterial action. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tooth exfoliation | Physiologic loss of the primary dentition. (zwemer, boucher's clinical dental terminology, 4th ed) (12 Dec 1998) |

| tooth mobility | Horizontal and, to a lesser degree, axial movement of a tooth in response to normal forces, as in occlusion.
