  • Teeth with non-negotiable root canals should not be selected as abutments. (wikipedia.org)
  • Molar fragment forceps and dental picks are helpful when dental fragments (e.g. a fractured off root) and sequestered alveolar bone need to be loosened and removed. (dvm360.com)
  • If they are made deeply then theses cuts destroy the attachment of the root to the bone along the cuts, reducing general attachment of the tooth. (animaldental.com.au)
  • As the tooth matures and the root is formed, three main avenues for exchange of infectious elements and other irritants between the two compartments are created by (1) dentinal tubules, (2) lateral and accessory canals, and (3) the apical foramen. (docshare.tips)
  • B) Tooth was retreated and the root canal filled with thermoplasticized gutta-percha. (docshare.tips)
  • It is estimated that 30-40% of all teeth have lateral or accessory canals and the majority of them are found in the apical third of the root (1). (docshare.tips)
  • A dental radiograph is taken to confirm that the entire tooth has been extracted and the alveolus is free of bone, root remnants or debris. (indiahospitaltour.com)
  • In the 1960s and 1970s, practitioners advocated aggressive hand scaling and root planing with the purpose of achieving a glassy smooth finish which resulted in removing pathogens along with excessive amounts of tooth structure, often resulting in dentinal hypersensitivity. (adha.org)
  • For each tooth, the following measurements were obtained using a micrometer caliper: buccal and palatal root length, mesial and distal root trunk length, crown length, and width of the furcation entrance. (studylib.net)
  • Type A root trunks comprised only 7% of the examined teeth, while types B and C had more or less comparable results (46% and 47% respectively). (studylib.net)
  • the mean root trunk length was greater in teeth with bifurcation ridges than in teeth without (7.41 mm vs. 5.96 mm). (studylib.net)
  • the reason for this is the difficulty to determine an accurate working length at an irregular and oblique root fracture plane (1, 7, 8). (jmedcasereportsimages.org)
  • Crown-root fractures represent less than 5% of TDIs and are likely to expose the pulp [ 2 ]. (pocketdentistry.com)
  • Crown fracture extending into the root. (pocketdentistry.com)
  • Scanning electron microscopic studies have demonstrated that dentin exposure at the CEJ occurred in about 18% of teeth in general and in 25% of anterior teeth in particular (3). (docshare.tips)
  • For the rostral teeth, necessary additional light can be directed from elsewhere besides a headlamp, however it is still useful to wear a headlamp for these extractions. (dvm360.com)
  • Extractions of impacted or problematic wisdom teeth are routinely performed, as are extractions of some permanent teeth to make space for orthodontic treatment. (indiahospitaltour.com)
  • As dental extractions can vary tremendously in difficulty, depending on the patient and the tooth, a wide variety of instruments exist to address specific situations. (indiahospitaltour.com)
  • If not detected until severe halitosis is present, the affected teeth typically need surgical extractions. (thevetdentists.com)
  • Finally, the gingival crest contour should be discussed. (drbui.com)
  • Even gingival crest contour in width and height should be restored as to aid in food deflection from the dentogingival junction and also in facilitate the oral hygiene effort. (drbui.com)
  • Uneven gingival height will cause problem in brushing, as the patient forgot to move the tooth brush following the dentogingival contour. (drbui.com)
  • The non-surgical technique will not be appropriate for such a tooth. (indiahospitaltour.com)
  • Surgical extraction is usually our preferred technique for most teeth. (indiahospitaltour.com)
  • However, both tooth extraction and removal of an impacted tooth must be performed in accordance with surgical principles that have evolved from both basic research and centuries of trial and error. (medscape.com)
  • Tooth extraction leaves a surgical wound, which has to heal. (medscape.com)
  • Like any other minor surgical procedure, tooth extraction requires careful medical evaluation of the patient. (medscape.com)
  • En bloc' removal of the tumor was accomplished, leaving the adjacent conchal cartilage attached to the tumor and using the CADISS technique to preserve the deep perichondrium. (mdpi.com)
  • Extraction may also be contraindicated when it is adjacent to the site of jaw fracture, because the teeth may be required for stabilization of the fractured bone. (medscape.com)
  • Extensive fracture of the crown. (whatclinic.com)
  • In the situation of clinical crown fracture, crown lengthening procedure can be performed to move the margin apically to provide at least 2-3mm of lateral walls. (drbui.com)
  • Fractures of the crown are amongst the most common injuries to the permanent teeth, accounting for up to 40% of the injuries sustained ( Figure 30.1 ). (pocketdentistry.com)
  • These fractures mainly affect the enamel and dentine with pulp exposure occurring in approximately 25% of all crown fractures. (pocketdentistry.com)
  • The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between crown margin and type of restorativematerial on the periodontal health of the restored teeth. (com.pk)
  • Robust wolf tooth extraction forceps can work for securing a hold on canines and incisors. (dvm360.com)
  • Selection of abutment teeth depends on a few factors including:[1] Location To provide adequate support, there should be one abutment tooth per quadrant and the abutment should ideally be a canine. (wikipedia.org)
  • Even small benign gingival growths can result in deep gingival pockets causing bad breath. (thevetdentists.com)
  • Kirkham (13), studying 1000 human teeth with extensive periodontal disease, found only 2% of lateral canals associated with the involved periodontal pocket. (docshare.tips)
  • Their incidence and location have been well documented in both animal and human teeth (9-15). (docshare.tips)
  • Maxillary bifurcated first premolars 9 mandibular premolar teeth demonstrated the lowest incidence. (studylib.net)
  • Depending on how severe PD is, veterinary dentists may be able to save teeth by reestablishing attachment. (thevetdentists.com)
  • Severe aching and discomfort on the side of the face where the tooth is infected is also fairly common, with the tooth itself becoming unbearable to touch due to extreme amounts of pain. (mdwiki.org)
