  2. Cementoenamel junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementoenamel_junction

    This irregular fragmentation of Hertwig's epithelial root sheath yields an equally irregular limit of cervical enamel and an irregular onset of formation and deposition of cementum. Consequently, the relationship between cementum and enamel at the CEJ presents an irregular contour, as observed during scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis ...

  3. Ameloblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ameloblast

    The secretory end of the ameloblast ends in a six-sided pyramid-like projection known as the Tomes' process. The angulation of the Tomes' process is significant in the orientation of enamel rods, the basic unit of tooth enamel. Distal terminal bars are junctional complexes that separate the Tomes' processes from ameloblast proper.

  4. Cervical loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cervical_loop

    The cervical loop is the location on an enamel organ in a developing tooth where the outer enamel epithelium and the inner enamel epithelium join. The cervical loop is a histologic term indicating a specific epithelial structure at the apical side of the tooth germ, consisting of loosely aggregated stellate reticulum in the center surrounded by ...

  5. Dentin dysplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentin_dysplasia

    With various options available to dentists, the treatment of this condition can still be difficult. Endodontic treatment is not advised for teeth with complete obliteration of root canals and pulp chambers. [3] An alternative treatment for teeth with periapical abscesses and pulpal necrosis is dental extraction.

  6. Epithelial root sheath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epithelial_root_sheath

    The sheath is also responsible for multiple or accessory roots (medial growth) and lateral or accessory canals in the root (break in epithelium). [3] It is controversial, but HERS may be involved in cementogenesis and the secreting of cementum, or that HERS-derived products might be related to enamel-related molecules, and that these proteins might initiate acellular cementum formation.

  7. Non-carious cervical lesions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-carious_cervical_lesions

    Non-carious cervical lesions on an incisor belonging to Australopithecus africanus. Arrows show the location of the lesions. Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) are a group of lesions that are characterised by a loss of hard dental tissue at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) region at the neck of the tooth, without the action of microorganisms or inflammatory processes. [1]

  8. Dental abrasion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_abrasion

    For successful treatment of abrasion, the cause first needs to be identified and ceased (e.g. overzealous brushing). Once this has occurred, subsequent treatment may involve the changes in oral hygiene, application of fluoride to reduce sensitivity, or the placement of a restoration to help prevent further loss of tooth structure and aid plaque ...

  9. Cemento-osseous dysplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cemento-osseous_dysplasia

    For these patients, dental prophylaxis and regular monitoring are the primary recommended treatment steps which will help prevent future risk of infection. [8] Symptomatic patients may receive treatment options that include surgical curettage with bleeding stimulation or pulp vitality testing in areas showing periapical inflammation.
