  2. Vertical root fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_root_fracture

    Vertical root fracture. Vertical root fractures are a type of fracture of a tooth. They can be characterized by an incomplete or complete fracture line that extends through the long axis of the root toward the apex. Vertical root fractures represent between 2 and 5 percent of crown/root fractures. The greatest incidence occurs in endodontically ...

  3. Cracked tooth syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cracked_tooth_syndrome

    Cracked tooth syndrome could be considered a type of dental trauma and also one of the possible causes of dental pain.One definition of cracked tooth syndrome is "a fracture plane of unknown depth and direction passing through tooth structure that, if not already involving, may progress to communicate with the pulp and/or periodontal ligament."

  4. Root fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_fracture

    Root fracture. Root fracture of the tooth is a dentine cementum fracture involving the pulp. Traumatic root fracture occurs most often in the middle third of the roots of fully erupted and fully formed teeth. However, root treated teeth are more susceptible to root fracture, as this involves removing root dentine, thereby weakening the tooth. [1]

  5. Impacted wisdom teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impacted_wisdom_teeth

    Impacted wisdom teeth is a condition where the third molars (wisdom teeth) are prevented from erupting into the mouth. [1] This can be caused by a physical barrier, such as other teeth, or when the tooth is angled away from a vertical position. [2] Completely unerupted wisdom teeth usually result in no symptoms, although they can sometimes ...

  6. Tooth ankylosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_ankylosis

    Tooth ankylosis. Tooth ankylosis refers to a fusion between a tooth and underlying bony support tissues. In some species, this is a normal process that occurs during the formation or maintenance of the dentition. [1] By contrast, in humans tooth ankylosis is pathological, whereby a fusion between alveolar bone and the cementum of a tooth occurs.

  7. Dental attrition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_attrition

    Dental attrition is a type of tooth wear caused by tooth-to-tooth contact, [1] resulting in loss of tooth tissue, usually starting at the incisal or occlusal surfaces. Tooth wear is a physiological process and is commonly seen as a normal part of aging. Advanced and excessive wear and tooth surface loss can be defined as pathological in nature ...

  8. Pulp necrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulp_necrosis

    Pulp necrosis is a clinical diagnostic category indicating the death of cells and tissues in the pulp chamber of a tooth with or without bacterial invasion. [1] It is often the result of many cases of dental trauma, caries and irreversible pulpitis. In the initial stage of the infection, the pulp chamber is partially necrosed for a period of ...

  9. Tooth resorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_resorption

    Tooth resorption. Resorption of the root of the tooth, or root resorption, is the progressive loss of dentin and cementum by the action of odontoclasts. [4] Root resorption is a normal physiological process that occurs in the exfoliation of the primary dentition. However, pathological root resorption occurs in the permanent or secondary ...
