  2. Crown (dental restoration) - Wikipedia

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

    In order to accept a stainless steel crown, the entire occlusal surface should be reduced by 1–1.5 mm and interproximally contacts should be cleared by cutting a thin mesial and distal portion or slice subgingivally by holding the tip of a thin high-speed bur at 15–20° relative to the long axis of the tooth, to avoid the creation of a ...

  3. Crown lengthening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_lengthening

    Replacement of unaesthetic crowns on the upper central teeth after undergoing crown lengthening and fabrication of new restorations. Crown lengthening is often done in conjunction with a few other expensive and time-consuming dental procedures (e.g. post and core, endodontic treatment) with the ultimate goal of saving the tooth. The prognosis ...

  4. Hall Technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_Technique

    [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]

  5. Post and core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_and_core

    The use of a post and core does not strengthen the tooth prior to restoration with a crown; [9] rather, it may contribute to the weakening of the tooth structure, as the forces placed upon the future prosthetic crown and core are now transmitted along virtually the entire length of the brittle, endodontically treated tooth. This inherent ...

  6. Dental implant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_implant

    [2] [3] [4] During initial development of implant retained teeth, all crowns were attached to the teeth with screws, but more recent advancements have allowed placement of crowns on the abutments with dental cement (akin to placing a crown on a tooth). This has created the potential for cement, that escapes from under the crown during ...

  7. Tooth transplant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_transplant

    Tooth transplantation is mainly divided into two types: Allotransplantation (homogenous), where a tooth is transferred from one individual to a different individual of the same species. [1] Nowadays, it is largely abandoned as the practice carries many risks including transmission of infection, such as syphilis, [2] and histocompatibility ...

  9. Dental restoration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_restoration

    If permanent restoration cannot be carried out immediately after tooth preparation, temporary restoration may be performed. The prepared tooth, ready for placement of restorative materials, is generally called a tooth preparation. Materials used may be gold, amalgam, dental composites, glass ionomer cement, or porcelain, among others.
