Teeth

1.0K
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...

Essential Minerals for Bone Health

4.9K
The minerals contained in all of the food we consume are essential for our organ systems. However, certain essential minerals, such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, manganese, and fluoride, largely affect bone health.
Calcium and Phosphorus
Calcium is a critical component of bones, especially in the form of calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate. Since the body cannot make calcium, it must be obtained from the diet. However, calcium cannot be absorbed from the small intestine without...

Assessment of the Mouth01:26

Assessment of the Mouth

579
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.

Tooth Anatomy01:21

Tooth Anatomy

1.4K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Dentistry
  • Developmental Biology
  • Dental Public Health

Background:

  • Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a prevalent childhood developmental dental defect.
  • It impacts enamel quality in permanent molars and can cause anterior teeth opacities.
  • MIH poses challenges for dental professionals and affects children's social and functional well-being.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an updated review of Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH).
  • The review covers epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, and clinical management.
  • Focuses on contemporary scientific and clinical literature.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of scientific and clinical studies on MIH.
  • Searched electronic databases: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library.
  • Data collected up to April 10, 2020.

Main Results:

  • Growing evidence exists on MIH etiology, presentation, and management.
  • Research highlights potential genetic factors and diagnostic/management indices.
  • Increasing recognition of MIH's global and individual impact.

Conclusions:

  • Dental professionals must stay updated on MIH research.
  • Ensuring optimal short- and long-term care for young patients is crucial.
  • Regular appraisal of literature supports evidence-based practice for MIH.
