Teeth01:15

Teeth

2.2K
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...

Tooth Anatomy01:21

Tooth Anatomy

2.8K
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...

Complications of Diabetes Mellitus01:22

Complications of Diabetes Mellitus

35
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia due to insulin deficiency, resistance, or both. Prolonged hyperglycemia disrupts metabolic homeostasis and leads to acute and chronic complications.Acute ComplicationsAcute complications result from sudden metabolic imbalance.Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) mainly appears in type 1 diabetes but may also develop in type 2 diabetes, particularly under extreme stress. It arises from severe insulin deficiency,...

Oral Cavity01:11

Oral Cavity

3.8K
The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

Development of the Oral Microbiota01:28

Development of the Oral Microbiota

65
The establishment of the oral microbiome begins before birth, challenging the long-held belief that the fetal oral cavity is sterile. The presence of oral microbes such as Streptococcus and Fusobacterium in amniotic fluid suggests that microbial exposure may occur in utero, potentially through translocation from the maternal oral or gastrointestinal tract. This early colonization primes the neonatal immune system and sets the stage for subsequent microbial succession. Maternal health,...

Assessment of the Mouth01:26

Assessment of the Mouth

1.6K
A thorough mouth assessment, including inspection and palpation of the lips, gums, tongue, tonsils, uvula, and pharynx, is crucial in detecting potential health issues. Diseases ranging from oral cancer to systemic conditions like diabetes could be identified early through careful oral examination. This article provides a detailed guide on conducting a comprehensive mouth assessment.
Mouth Inspection
The inspection begins with visually examining the mouth for symmetry, color, and size.

    Summary

    Many endodontically treated teeth show poor root canal obturation, indicating a need for retreatment. This study assessed endodontic therapy quality and identified further treatment requirements in a large patient cohort.

    Area of Science:

    • Dental science
    • Endodontics
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Assessing endodontic therapy quality is crucial for patient outcomes.
    • Prevalence of periapical lesions and root canal treatment quality requires investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the quality of existing endodontic treatments.
    • To determine the need for further endodontic interventions.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 900 orthopantomograms and 1,170 intraoral radiographs.
    • Examination of 20,724 teeth for periapical status and root canal filling quality.

    Main Results:

    • 13.8% of teeth exhibited periapical lesions or inadequate root fillings.
    • Only 40.4% of endodontically treated teeth had complete root canal obturation.

  • A significant proportion of teeth with inadequate fillings had healthy apical periodontium, while 880 teeth required retreatment.

    • Conclusions:

    • A substantial percentage of endodontic treatments fall short of quality standards.
    • There is a considerable need for endodontic retreatment to improve outcomes.
