2. Odontometrics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odontometrics

   The length and width of teeth are measured from front to back and side to side using calipers. These measurements can be made directly from skeletal material or through dental casts of living humans. [1] The measurements that are reported most commonly are maximum crown length and maximum crown breadth. [3]

3. Crown (dental restoration) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_(dental_restoration)

   In dentistry, a crown or a dental cap is a type of dental restoration that completely caps or encircles a tooth or dental implant. A crown may be needed when a large dental cavity threatens the health of a tooth. Some dentists will also finish root canal treatment by covering the exposed tooth with a crown.

4. Crown-to-root ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown-to-root_ratio

   These terms can also be used to refer to the clinical sense of the words, as relative crown and relative root, by describing how much tooth remains surrounded by bone.As the inflammation associated with periodontal disease causes the bone to resorb and disappear, revealing more of the root structure, the effective crown height in relation to the effective root height is reduced and the ...

5. Crown lengthening - Wikipedia

   Replacement of unaesthetic crowns on the upper central teeth after undergoing crown lengthening and fabrication of new restorations.

   [3] [4] This problem has not been realised with one study showing long-term data beyond five years, to when the baby teeth are lost, with fewer problems from the tooth with the crown. Crowns placed using the Hall Technique have better long term outcomes (pain/infection and need for replacement) compared with standard fillings. [5] [6] [7]

9. Bridge (dentistry) - Wikipedia

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

   Crown to root ratio is the distance from the occlusal/incisal surface of the tooth to the alveolar crest in relation to the length of root within the bone. The minimum ratio of crown to root is considered to be 1:1, although the most favourable is a crown:root of 2:3. As the proportion of tooth supported by bone decreases, the lever effect ...
