  2. Tooth enamel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_enamel

    The enamel on primary teeth has a more opaque crystalline form and thus appears whiter than on permanent teeth. The large amount of mineral in enamel accounts not only for its strength but also for its brittleness. [6] Tooth enamel ranks 5 on Mohs hardness scale (between steel and titanium) and has a Young's modulus of 83 GPa. [4]

  3. Amelogenesis imperfecta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amelogenesis_imperfecta

    X-ray showing lack of enamel opacity and a pathological loss of enamel in patient with amelogenesis imperfecta. Preventive and restorative dental care is very important as well as considerations for esthetic issues since the crown are yellow from exposure of dentin due to enamel loss. [5]

  4. Dental radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_radiography

    Dental radiographs, commonly known as X-rays, are radiographs used to diagnose hidden dental structures, malignant or benign masses, bone loss, and cavities.. A radiographic image is formed by a controlled burst of X-ray radiation which penetrates oral structures at different levels, depending on varying anatomical densities, before striking the film or sensor.

  5. Human tooth development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth_development

    Teeth affected by regional odontodysplasia nevAmelogenesis imperfecta is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by a defect in dental enamel formation. Teeth are often free of enamel, small, misshapen, and tinted brown. The cause of these deformities is due to a mutation in enamel in expression. Dental patients with this disease should be ...

  6. Dental anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_anatomy

    The tooth bud (sometimes called the tooth germ) is an aggregation of cells that eventually forms a tooth and is organized into three parts: the enamel organ, the dental papilla and the dental follicle. [3] The enamel organ is composed of the outer enamel epithelium, inner enamel epithelium, stellate reticulum and stratum intermedium. [3]

  7. Tooth decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_decay

    These caries, sometimes referred to as "hidden caries", will still be visible on X-ray radiographs, but visual examination of the tooth would show the enamel intact or minimally perforated. The differential diagnosis for dental caries includes dental fluorosis and developmental defects of the tooth including hypomineralization of the tooth and ...

  8. Plane-form enamel hypoplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane-form_enamel_hypoplasia

    Plane-form enamel hypoplasia is a dental condition that is distinguished by defects in the teeth enamel, that can occur due to genetic and/or environmental factors. It is common for the disease to occur during the developmental stages of the teeth, and childhood illnesses, such as respiratory infections, are often linked to disturbance of the enamel formation [5] [6].

  9. Idiopathic osteosclerosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiopathic_osteosclerosis

    Idiopathic osteosclerosis, also known as enostosis or dense bone island, is a condition which may be found around the roots of a tooth, usually a premolar or molar. [2] It is usually painless and found during routine radiographs as an amorphous radiopaque (light) area around a tooth.
