Summary
Functional Endodontic Volume (FEV) is a new approach to root canal shaping. This biologically driven concept prioritizes irrigant exchange and disinfection for better outcomes while preserving tooth structure.
Area of Science:
- Endodontics
- Dental Anatomy
- Biomaterials Science
Background:
- Contemporary endodontics increasingly focuses on irrigation-based disinfection.
- Traditional root canal preparation often overlooks disinfection efficacy and structural integrity.
- A shift towards biologically driven shaping methods is needed.

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...

Theorems of Pappus and Guldinus: Problem Solving
790
Pappus and Guldinus's theorems are powerful mathematical principles that are used for finding the surface area and volume of composite shapes. For example, consider a cylindrical storage tank with a conical top. Finding the surface area or volume can be challenging for such complex shapes. These theorems are particularly useful in calculating the volume and surface area of such systems. Here, the cylindrical storage tank with a conical top can be broken down into two simple shapes: a...
