Tooth root resorption: A review
Tooth root resorption is multifactorial, leading to progressive destruction and eventual loss of tooth root dentin and cement. There are internal and external types of root resorption, each having its variety.

Piezo-catalysis for nondestructive tooth whitening
The increasing demand for a whiter smile has resulted in an increased popularity for tooth whitening procedures. The most classic hydrogen peroxide-based whitening agents are effective, but can lead to enamel demineralization, gingival irritation, or ...

Molecular and cellular mechanisms of tooth development, homeostasis and repair
The tooth provides an excellent system for deciphering the molecular mechanisms of organogenesis, and has thus been of longstanding interest to developmental and stem cell biologists studying embryonic morphogenesis and adult tissue renewal.

Periodontitis: A Multifaceted Disease of Tooth-Supporting Tissues
Periodontitis is an infection-driven inflammatory disease in which the composition of biofilms plays a significant role. Dental plaque accumulation at the gingival margin initiates an inflammatory response that, in turn, causes microbial alterations and ...

Wnt signaling during tooth replacement in zebrafish (Danio rerio) : pitfalls and perspectives [PDF]
The canonical (13-catenin dependent) Wnt signaling pathway has emerged as a likely candidate for regulating tooth replacement in continuously renewing dentitions.

Genome-wide association study of primary tooth eruption identifies pleiotropic loci associated with height and craniofacial distances [PDF]
Twin and family studies indicate that the timing of primary tooth eruption is highly heritable, with estimates typically exceeding 80%. To identify variants involved in primary tooth eruption we performed a population based genome-wide association study ...

Deciduous autologous tooth stem cells regenerate dental pulp after implantation into injured teeth
Dental pulp regeneration by tooth stem cells promotes recovery of damaged teeth in animal models and human patients. Tooth stem cells regenerate smiles Dental pulp necrosis is one of the most common pathological conditions that results in tooth loss ...
