Teeth01:15

Teeth

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
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...
Decision Making: Traditional Method01:14

Decision Making: Traditional Method

The process of hypothesis testing based on the traditional method includes calculating the critical value, testing the value of the test statistic using the sample data, and interpreting these values.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is decided based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to this claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses, out of which a null hypothesis would be a...
Decision Making01:20

Decision Making

Decision-making is a fundamental cognitive process that involves evaluating alternatives and selecting among them. This process can range from simple choices, such as deciding what to wear, to complex decisions, like choosing a major in college or a career path. The complexity of the decision often dictates the approach we use, which can be broadly categorized into two types: automatic and controlled decision-making.
Automatic decision-making is fast, intuitive, and relies on gut feelings...
Tooth Anatomy01:21

Tooth Anatomy

The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
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.
Decision Making: P-value Method01:09

Decision Making: P-value Method

The process of hypothesis testing based on the P-value method includes calculating the P- value using the sample data and interpreting it.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim  is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses:  a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can have a...
Ethical Dilemmas II01:30

Ethical Dilemmas II

Resolving an ethical dilemma in healthcare involves a systematic approach that considers every aspect of the issue, respecting both the patient's needs and values and the healthcare professional's ethical obligations. Here are potential steps to resolve an ethical dilemma:

Summary

Deciding whether to save or extract a compromised tooth is crucial for dental professionals. This study introduces a decision-making chart to aid clinicians in choosing the optimal treatment path for patients with total or partial edentulism.

Area of Science:

  • Dental Implantology
  • Restorative Dentistry

Background:

  • Implant-supported restorations are a leading treatment for edentulism.
  • High success rates (>90% over 15 years) are achievable with proper implant placement and maintenance.
  • Implants can be a superior alternative to extensive conservative procedures for compromised teeth.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a decision-making chart for clinicians.
  • To assist in determining whether to save or extract a compromised tooth.
  • To address the issue of inadequate tooth extraction indications.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of peer-reviewed English journal articles.
  • Inclusion of book sources.
  • Analysis of individual tooth- and patient-related features for extraction indications.

Main Results:

  • A six-level, color-based decision-making chart was developed.
  • The chart incorporates multiple factors based on scientific literature.
  • Rationale and literature support are provided for chart interpretation.

Conclusions:

  • The developed chart serves as a valuable reference for dentists.
  • It aids in making informed decisions regarding compromised teeth.
  • Promotes evidence-based practice in tooth preservation versus extraction.
