The document discusses the development of primary and permanent dentition in humans. It describes the characteristics of human dentition including dental formula. Tooth development occurs in three stages - bud, cap and bell stage. The primary teeth erupt in a sequence from 6-30 months. Characteristics of primary dentition include spacing, shallow overjet and overbite, and vertical inclination of anterior teeth. Molar relationships in primary dentition can be flush, mesial step or distal step.
