Air abrasion is a dental technique that uses compressed air to propel a thin stream of abrasive particles—often aluminum oxide or silica—through a specialized hand-piece to remove tooth tissue and decay before being suctioned away, similar to sand blasting.
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a thin-film deposition technique based on the sequential use of a gas-phase chemical process; it is a subclass of chemical vapour deposition. The majority of ALD reactions use two chemicals called precursors (also called "reactants").
Thus, CCVD technique is a true vapor deposition process for making thin film coatings. [2] [3] The CCVD coating process has the ability to deposit thin films in the open atmosphere [4] using inexpensive precursor chemicals in solution leading to continuous, production-line manufacturing. It does not require post-deposition treatment e.g ...
This technique involves 'the deposition of at least 0.2ml of local anaesthetic solution for each root of the tooth' [10] diffusing into the marrow spaces surrounding the teeth. Clinicians may adopt this technique due to some benefits such as: no soft tissue anaesthesia, use of a smaller amount of anaesthetic and single tooth anaesthesia however ...
Anodic aluminum oxide, anodic aluminum oxide (AAO), or anodic alumina is a self-organized form of aluminum oxide that has a honeycomb-like structure formed by high density arrays of uniform and parallel pores. The diameter of the pores can be as low as 5 nanometers and as high as several hundred nanometers, and length can be controlled from few ...

Depending on the extent of destruction, various treatments can be used to restore the tooth to proper function, or the tooth may be removed. [6] There is no known method to grow back large amounts of tooth. [9] The availability of treatment is often poor in the developing world. [2] Paracetamol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen may be taken for pain ...
Resorption of the root of the tooth, or root resorption, is the progressive loss of dentin and cementum by the action of odontoclasts. [4] Root resorption is a normal physiological process that occurs in the exfoliation of the primary dentition.
