  2. Mineral trioxide aggregate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_trioxide_aggregate

    When the root is incompletely formed in adolescents and an infection occurs, apexification can be performed to maintain the tooth in position as the roots develop. In case of non-vital pulp: 1. Isolate the tooth with a rubber dam 2. perform root canal treatment. 3. Mix MTA and insert it to the apex of the tooth, creating a 3 mm thickness of ...

  3. Remineralisation of teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remineralisation_of_teeth

    P11-4 is a self-assembling β-peptide. It builds a 3-D bio-matrix with binding sites for Calcium-ions serving as nucleation point for hydroxyapatite (tooth mineral) formation. The high affinity to tooth mineral is based on matching distances of Ca-ion binding sites on P11-4 and Ca spacing in the crystal lattice of hydroxyapatite.

    Before this treatment modality is introduced, apexification procedures using either immediate placement of mineral trioxide aggregate [3] apical plug or long term-calcium hydroxide treatment [4] were traditionally used to treat immature permanent tooth. Although these treatments often resolve the signs and symptoms of pathosis, they provide ...

  6. Calculus (dental) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus_(dental)

    An important part of the scope of practice of a dental hygienist is the removal of plaque and calculus deposits. This is achieved through the use of specifically designed instruments for debridement of tooth surfaces. [39] [40] Treatment with these types of instruments is necessary as calculus deposits cannot be removed by brushing or flossing ...

  7. Fluoride therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride_therapy

    Fluorapatite is not a natural component of human teeth, although it is found in the teeth of sharks. The main mineral found in natural tooth enamel is hydroxyapatite rather than the fluorapatite created in the presence of fluoride. Even without fluoride, teeth experience alternating increases and decreases in mineral content, depending upon how ...

  8. Periapical cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periapical_cyst

    Root canal treatment should be performed on the tooth if it is determined that previous therapy was unsuccessful. Removal of the necrotic pulp and the inflamed tissue as well as proper sealing of the canals and an appropriately fitting crown will allow the tooth to heal under uninfected conditions.

  9. Oral hygiene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_hygiene

    A 1930s poster from the Work Projects Administration promoting oral hygiene. Tooth decay is the most common global disease. [14] Over 80% of cavities occur inside fissures in teeth where brushing cannot reach food left trapped after eating and saliva and fluoride have no access to neutralize acid and remineralize demineralized teeth, unlike easy-to-clean parts of the tooth, where fewer ...
