Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Periodontal splints were made both on patients with peridontal absorption of three different degrees and on normal situation respectively followed by finite element calculation.The result sugree that the stesses of the supporting tissues redistributed during mastication in accordance with different degrees of periodontal absorption.The more obvious of the pcriodontal absorption is the more stress value of the periodontal supporting tissue decrease,while those of the subbasal supporting tissues increase.

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.
