Tooth Anatomy

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...

Suctioning the Oropharyngeal Airway

Suctioning the Oropharyngeal Airway

In preparing for oropharyngeal airway suctioning, a nurse must gather all necessary equipment, including a suction unit with tubing, a prepackaged suction kit, sterile gloves, water or saline for irrigation, a water-soluble lubricant, and additional personal protective equipment (such as a gown, mask, and goggles) to control infections.
After assembling the equipment, the nurse should practice hand hygiene and don appropriate PPE according to infection control guidelines to avoid the...

Teeth

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...

Area of Science:

Dentistry
Orthodontics
Biomedical Engineering

Background:

Orthodontic treatment typically spans 2-3 years, increasing the risk of complications.
Accelerating orthodontic tooth movement is clinically significant for improving patient prognosis.

Purpose of the Study:

To review common adjunctive interventions for accelerating orthodontic tooth movement.
To provide a basis for guiding clinical practice and shortening treatment duration.

Main Methods:

Literature review of surgical and non-surgical adjunctive interventions.
Analysis of current approaches to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement.

Main Results:

Numerous interventions exist, broadly categorized as surgical or non-surgical.
A universally accepted routine intervention for accelerating orthodontic tooth movement is currently lacking.

Conclusions:

Adjunctive interventions offer potential to shorten orthodontic treatment duration.
Further research and clinical validation are needed to establish routine practices for accelerated orthodontics.
