  2. Dental anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_anatomy

    Dental anatomy is a field of anatomy dedicated to the study of human tooth structures. The development, appearance, and classification of teeth fall within its purview. (The function of teeth as they contact one another falls elsewhere, under dental occlusion.) Tooth formation begins before birth, and the teeth's eventual morphology is dictated ...

  3. Human tooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth

    Dental anatomy is a field of anatomy dedicated to the study of tooth structure. The development, appearance, and classification of teeth fall within its field of study, though dental occlusion, or contact between teeth, does not. Dental anatomy is also a taxonomic science as it is concerned with the naming of teeth and their structures. This ...

    Parts of a tooth, including the enamel (cross section). Tooth enamel is one of the four major tissues that make up the tooth in humans and many animals, including some species of fish.

  8. Occlusion (dentistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occlusion_(dentistry)

More technically, it is the relationship between the maxillary (upper) and mandibular (lower) teeth when they approach each other, as occurs during chewing or at rest. Static occlusion refers to contact between teeth when the jaw is closed and stationary, while dynamic ...

  9. Cementoenamel junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementoenamel_junction

    Anatomical terminology. [edit on Wikidata] In dental anatomy, the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) is the location where the enamel, which covers the anatomical crown of a tooth, and the cementum, which covers the anatomical root of a tooth, meet. Informally it is known as the neck of the tooth. [1] The border created by these two dental tissues ...
