    The maintenance and repair of human tooth enamel is one of the primary concerns of dentistry. In humans, enamel varies in thickness over the surface of the tooth, often thickest at the cusp , up to 2.5 mm, and thinnest at its border with the cementum at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ).

    The carious process can begin within days of a tooth's erupting into the mouth if the diet is sufficiently rich in suitable carbohydrates. Evidence suggests that the introduction of fluoride treatments has slowed the process. [34] Proximal caries take an average of four years to pass through enamel in permanent teeth.

  4. Remineralisation of teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remineralisation_of_teeth

    Tooth remineralization is the natural repair process for non-cavitated tooth lesions, [1] [2] in which calcium, phosphate and sometimes fluoride ions are deposited into crystal voids in demineralised enamel. Remineralization can contribute towards restoring strength and function within tooth structure.

    Risk factors of tooth ankylosis can be generally classified into genetic factors and dental trauma. Diagnostic methods of tooth ankylosis include the use of clinical examinations, x-ray and cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT). [7] [5] Tooth ankylosis could have several symptoms, with decreased tooth count being the most prominent one. [4]

  6. Dentin hypersensitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentin_hypersensitivity

Gum disease: Gum disease can cause sensitive teeth by exposing the roots of the teeth. As gum disease progresses, the gums may begin to recede, exposing the sensitive ...
