Enamel prism orientation within human teeth
Dental enamel is the most highly mineralised and hardest biological tissue in human body [16]. It is made of hydroxylapatite (HAP) Ca5(PO4)3(OH), which is hexagonal (6/m). The lattice parameters are a = b = 9.418 Å and c = 6.875 Å. About the inner structure of dental enamel it’s known, that it is composed of elongated “enamel prisms” of about 20μm diameter [1]. The crystallographic structure, r...
متن کاملSingle crowns versus conventional fillings for the restoration of root filled teeth.
BACKGROUND Endodontic treatment, involves removal of the dental pulp and its replacement by a root canal filling. Restoration of root filled teeth can be challenging due to structural differences between vital and non-vital root filled teeth. Direct restoration involves placement of a restorative material e.g. amalgam or composite directly into the tooth. Indirect restorations consist of cast m...
متن کاملDistinguishing between enamel fluorosis and other enamel defects in permanent teeth of children.
Background. The inconsistent prevalence of fluorosis for a given level of fluoride in drinking water suggests developmental defects of enamel (DDEs) other than fluorosis were being misdiagnosed as fluorosis. The imprecise definition and subjective perception of fluorosis indices could result in misdiagnosis of dental fluorosis. This study was conducted to distinguish genuine fluorosis from fluo...
متن کاملThe dentin-enamel junction and the fracture of human teeth.
The dentin-enamel junction (DEJ), which is the interfacial region between the dentin and outer enamel coating in teeth, is known for its unique biomechanical properties that provide a crack-arrest barrier for flaws formed in the brittle enamel1. In this work, we re-examine how cracks propagate in the proximity of the DEJ, and specifically quantify, using interfacial fracture mechanics, the frac...
متن کاملEnamel-free teeth: Tbx1 deletion affects amelogenesis in rodent incisors.
TBX1 is a principal candidate gene for DiGeorge syndrome, a developmental anomaly that affects the heart, thymus, parathyroid, face, and teeth. A mouse model carrying a deletion in a functional region of the Tbx1 gene has been extensively used to study anomalies related to this syndrome. We have used the Tbx1 null mouse to understand the tooth phenotype reported in patients afflicted by DiGeorg...
