An analysis of the relationship between posterior dental cross-bite and vertical palatal asymmetry
American Journal of Orthodontics
|July 1, 1979
Abstract:
The relationship between unilateral posterior cross-bite and vertical proportions of the palatal vault observed in the frontal plane was studied in twenty cross-bite cases wtih asymmetric palates and twenty control cases. The contour of the palate was registered from study models at three different anteroposterior levels with an adjustable template. The tracings of the contours obtained from roentgenograms of the instrument were used to measure the asymmetry of the palate.

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...

01:21Tooth 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.
