  2. Enamel fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enamel_fracture

    These fractures are often characterised by irregular breaks on the biting surface of the tooth, in contrast to the smoother surfaces associated with typical tooth degradation. [1] Enamel fractures can vary in severity, ranging from minor cosmetic issues to more significant structural problems. [1] An enamel fracture typically doesn't cause any ...

  3. Enamel-dentine fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enamel-dentine_fracture

    Enamel-dentine fracture is a complete fracture of the tooth enamel and dentine without the exposure of the pulp. Pulp sensibility testing is recommended to confirm pulpal health. Treatment depends on how close the fracture is in relation to the pulp. If a tooth fragment is available, it can be bonded to the tooth.

  4. Enamel infraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enamel_infraction

    Enamel infractions are microcracks seen within the dental enamel of a tooth. [1] They are commonly the result of dental trauma to the brittle enamel, which remains adherent to the underlying dentine. They can be seen more clearly when transillumination is used. Enamel infractions are found more often in older teeth, as the accumulated trauma is

  5. 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 ...

    A crack in enamel with no loss of tooth structure Tooth is not tender No abnormalities Generally no treatment needed Discolouration of prominent cracks can be prevented by etching and sealing with resin No follow-up required 2) Enamel fracture Fracture involving enamel only Tooth not tender with normal mobility and pulpal response Loss of enamel

  7. Tooth ankylosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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.

  8. Abfraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abfraction

    It is suggested that these lesions are caused by forces placed on the teeth during biting, eating, chewing and grinding; the enamel, especially at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ), undergoes large amounts of stress, causing micro fractures and tooth tissue loss. Abfraction appears to be a modern condition, with examples of non-carious cervical ...

  9. Enamel tufts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enamel_tufts

    However, they have been noted to be an important potential source of enamel fractures that arise after extended use or overloading. [8] It appears that, although enamel easily starts to form the fracture defects of enamel tufts, they then enable enamel to resist the further progress of these fractures, ultimately preventing mechanical failure. [8]
