Teeth01:15

Teeth

575
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

897
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...

Assessment of the Mouth01:26

Assessment of the Mouth

341
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.

Associative Learning01:27

Associative Learning

513
Associative learning is a fundamental concept in behavioral psychology, wherein a connection is established between two stimuli or events, leading to a learned response. This process is critical in understanding how behaviors are acquired and modified. Conditioning, the mechanism through which associations are formed, can be divided into two main types: classical conditioning and operant conditioning, each elucidating different aspects of associative learning.
Classical conditioning, also known...

Operant Conditioning Intervention01:24

Operant Conditioning Intervention

101
Operant conditioning serves as a foundational principle in therapeutic interventions aimed at modifying maladaptive behaviors. Central to this approach is the notion that behaviors, both adaptive and maladaptive, are learned through reinforcement. By analyzing the environmental factors that reinforce problematic behaviors, clinicians can design interventions to weaken these reinforcements and replace maladaptive behaviors with healthier alternatives.
In operant conditioning, behaviors that are...

ortho–para-Directing Deactivators: Halogens01:24

ortho–para-Directing Deactivators: Halogens

5.7K
Halogens are ortho–para directors. They are more electronegative than carbon. Therefore, as ring substituents, they can withdraw electrons through the inductive effect and deactivate the aromatic ring towards electrophilic substitution. Halogens also have an electron-donating resonance effect on the ring, which influences the orientation of the incoming electrophile. If an electrophile attacks at the ortho or the para position, the halogen donates electrons and stabilizes the intermediate...

Area of Science:

  • Dental Education
  • Orthodontics
  • Game-Based Learning

Background:

  • Dealodontics is a novel card game developed at New York University College of Dentistry.
  • It is designed to reinforce and apply basic orthodontic concepts for dental students.
  • The game integrates clinical photographs and diagnostic/patient management questions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce Dealodontics as an innovative educational method.
  • To evaluate dental students' engagement and overall game-playing experience.

Main Methods:

  • A survey based on the "Game Experience Questionnaire" was administered.
  • A 5-point Likert scale was condensed into a 3-point scale (negative, neutral, positive).
  • Data from 2019 (N=385) and 2021 (N=245) were compared; an open-ended question assessed player experience.

Main Results:

  • Gameplay experiences were predominantly positive, including competence, positive affect, immersion, challenge, and learning.
  • Negative experiences such as tension and negative affect were minimal.
  • A higher percentage of positive responses in the 'flow' category was observed in 2021 (42.68%) compared to 2019 (38.3%).
  • "Fun" was the most frequent descriptor in open-ended responses.

Conclusions:

  • Dealodontics serves as an effective and engaging supplementary tool for dental education.
  • The game enhances the learning of orthodontic concepts through interactive play.
