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...

Tooth Anatomy

2.0K
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:

  • Dentistry
  • Dental Materials Science
  • Prosthodontics

Background:

  • Post-endodontic treatment decisions are influenced by various factors.
  • Understanding regional variations in dental practice is crucial for professional development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare post-endodontic treatment preferences between dentists in Germany and Switzerland.
  • Specifically examining choices regarding post placement and single-crown restorations.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire-based survey was distributed to 334 Swiss and 570 German dentists between August and November 2023.
  • Response rates were 15.0% for Swiss dentists (n=50) and 10.5% for German dentists (n=60).
  • Descriptive analyses and percentage-based data presentation were utilized.

Main Results:

  • German dentists placed posts in 5–20% of treated teeth, compared to less than 5% for Swiss dentists.
  • Swiss dentists initiated post placement with 0–40% remaining tooth structure (58%), versus German dentists at 40–70% (60%).
  • German dentists predominantly preferred single crowns (67%), while Swiss dentists favored composite-resin fillings (68%) for restorations.

Conclusions:

  • Significant differences exist in post-endodontic treatment strategies between German and Swiss dentists.
  • Swiss dentists demonstrate a more conservative approach, prioritizing composite restorations.
  • German dentists show a higher inclination towards post and single-crown restorations.
