Tooth Cementum Thickness as a Method of Age Estimation in the Forensic Context
Estimating age at death is a key element in the process of human identification of skeletal remains. The interest in dental cementum stems from its increase in thickness throughout life and, at the same time, from the fact it should not be affected by ...

Uneven distribution of enamel, dentine and cementum in cheek teeth of domestic horses (Equus caballus): A micro computed tomography study. [PDF]
Hypsodont equine cheek teeth possess large dental crowns, resting partly in the bony alveolus. Over a horse's life cheek teeth erupt continuously to compensate for occlusal wear of 3-4 mm per year.

Raman Spectroscopy for Assessment of Hard Dental Tissues in Periodontitis Treatment
The objective of this work was to use Raman spectroscopy to assess hard dental tissues after professional oral hygiene treatment and curettage. Spectral changes were identified, and the discriminant model of the specific changes of intensity of the Raman

Biomimetic restoration and regeneration of dentin and cementum
Dental hard tissues lack the ability to self-heal. In dentin and cementum, hydroxyapatite (HA) can exist outside and/or inside collagen fibers. It is difficult to repair or regenerate HA with a highly ordered orientation in the presence of collagen ...

Computer-Assisted Detection of Cemento-Enamel Junction in Intraoral Ultrasonographs
The cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) is an important reference point for various clinical measurements in oral health assessment. Identifying CEJ in ultrasound images is a challenging task for dentists. In this study, a computer-assisted detection method is

Histology of human cementum: Its structure, function, and development
Cementum was first demonstrated by microscopy, about 180 years ago. Since then the biology of cementum has been investigated by the most advanced techniques and equipment at that time in various fields of dental sciences. A great deal of data on cementum

Odontoameloblastoma with extensive chondroid matrix deposition in a guinea pig [PDF]
Odontoameloblastomas (previously incorporated within ameloblastic odontomas) are matrix-producing odontogenic mixed tumors and are closely related in histologic appearance to the 2 other types of matrix-producing odontogenic mixed tumors: odontomas and ...

Analysis of Cementum Layers in Archaeological Material
The aim of this study was to assess the utility of cementum layers for estimating age at death of remains from an archaeological site. Variability in cementum layer counts due to interobserver error and variation among dental regions were analyzed ...
