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...

Area of Science:

  • Prosthodontics
  • Dental Materials Science
  • Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM)

Background:

  • A patient utilized a maxillary overdenture for over 30 years.
  • The need for prosthetic appliance replacement arose due to its extended service life.

Observation:

  • The previous overdenture had been in functional use for an extended period.
  • The patient's treatment history spanned approximately 35 years, encompassing significant technological shifts in dentistry.

Findings:

  • A new maxillary overdenture was fabricated with a titanium understructure.
  • The understructure was designed and manufactured utilizing advanced CAD/CAM technology.

Implications:

  • This case demonstrates the evolution of dental prosthetic solutions.
  • Modern technologies like CAD/CAM offer improved fabrication and potentially enhanced longevity for dental prostheses.
  • The advancements contrast with earlier dental practices lacking innovations such as CT scans and bone grafting.
