If your teeth suddenly feel sensitive and you’re experiencing pain or discomfort while eating something hot or cold, you might not associate that with an exposed tooth root. But tooth sensitivity can be an early sign of a tooth root being exposed. Find out how to recognise and treat this ...
a. The embedded part of an organ or structure such as a hair, tooth, or nerve, that serves as a base or support. b. The bottom or supporting part of something: We snipped the wires at the roots. 3. The essential part or element; the basic core: I finally got to the root of th...
This chapter discusses the tooth morphology and structure. It also discusses the dental formulae and morphology. Primates, like all mammals, have two sets of teeth: those of the maxillary and premaxillary or upper teeth and the mandibular or lower teeth. Each tooth has two major functional part...
The following factors were associated significantly with increased root caries prevalence but only for middle-aged adults: male sex (P = .02), self-reported dry mouth (P < .001), exposed roots (P = .03) and increased frequency of eating or drinking between meals (P = .03). No other ...
Then, the root dentin surface, in particular the cer- vical region of the tooth, is exposed, causing tooth sensitivity.49 Therefore, the HERS is essential for the formation of both dentin and cementum during root development and may be considered the developmental center for root formation. ...
Adults — particularly older adults — may develop a root cavity, which is a type of tooth decay that forms on the roots of the teeth. How Do Root Cavities Develop? Whether a cavity forms on the root of the tooth or on a part of the tooth that is exposed, the way the cavity ...
biomimetics; cylindrical gears; tooth root design; fatigue resistance; finite element analysis; theory of critical distances1. Introduction The requirements for size reduction, energy efficiency, and an increase in load capacity are dominant in the contemporary research of machine elements and systems. ...
Performing endodontic therapy becomes necessary when a tooth’s pulp tissue has become irreversibly inflamed, infected, or has died. These conditions can be a result of extensive tooth decay, bacterial insult, acute tooth trauma (chipping, cracking, fracture), or accumulated trauma (teeth grinding/...
the observation of tooth movement changes in the periodontal tissue was made.Results:The observation of HE stained sections by using light microscope and scanning electron microscope showed there was no significant difference in the periodontal tissue of both the teeth treated through the root canal ...
Bone formation is seen around the third molar even when the tooth is exposed to the oral environment due to overeruption. To determine if overeruption of the third molar with or without root exposure is related to the status of the exposure of other teeth in the mandible, using orthopantomo...
