Abstract:
This article outlines how to promote and provide Functional Jaw Orthopedic (FJO) treatment, which is unique medical dentistry. FJO treatment is valuable preventive and therapeutic medical dentistry because jaw treatment impacts the extensive structures that surround the human airway and adjoin the skull. To best provide the broad range of unique FJO treatments, dentists need extensive knowledge, skills and experience. In order to promote FJO treatments, dentists and other interested health care providers need a wide assortment of educational materials that clearly show FJO treatment options and benefits.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Teeth
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...
Tooth Anatomy
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or grinding food.
