Tooth root resorption: A review. [PDF]
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. The etiology and pathogenesis of tooth root resorption are poorly understood, and the most significant etiological factors are trauma, pulpal ...

Photoacoustic digital tooth and image reconstruction of tooth root [PDF]
Imaging of teeth is very important to doctors in the diagnosis and treatment of dental diseases. The main imaging modality currently used is Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), which however suffers from ionizing radiation causing potential damage to human body.

The Role of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Tooth Root Development [PDF]
Appropriate tooth root formation and tooth eruption are critical for achieving and maintaining good oral health and quality of life. Tooth eruption is the process through which teeth emerge from their intraosseous position to their functional position in

A novel system for classifying tooth root phenotypes. [PDF]
Human root and canal number and morphology are highly variable, and internal root canal form and count does not necessarily co-vary directly with external morphology. While several typologies and classifications have been developed to address individual components of teeth, there is a need for a comprehensive system, that captures internal and external

Transparent dentin region in the tooth root. [PDF]
AbstractTransparent dentin in the tooth root forms during the aging process. The transparent dentin is weaker than normal opaque dentin, which may explain the occurrence of root dentin fractures in aged individuals. Tooth fractures are caused by the brittleness of the transparent dentin.

Some historical musings on tooth/root resorption. [PDF]
Contemporarily, the ravages of tooth resorption are seen daily around the world. While some teeth can be retained many are lost to this process. Although many types of resorptive processes have been identified, the etiological factors involved in this malady are not often clear and both speculation as to it source and clinical management have received ...

The Impact of the Eda Pathway on Tooth Root Development. [PDF]
The Eda pathway ( Eda, Edar, Edaradd) plays an important role in tooth development, determining tooth number, crown shape, and enamel formation. Here we show that the Eda pathway also plays a key role in root development. Edar (the receptor) is expressed in Hertwig’s epithelial root sheath (HERS) during root development, with mutant mice showing a ...

BMP signaling in the development and regeneration of tooth roots: from mechanisms to applications
Short root anomaly (SRA), along with caries, periodontitis, and trauma, can cause tooth loss, affecting the physical and mental health of patients.

GT U-Net: A U-Net Like Group Transformer Network for Tooth Root Segmentation [PDF]
To achieve an accurate assessment of root canal therapy, a fundamental step is to perform tooth root segmentation on oral X-ray images, in that the position of tooth root boundary is significant anatomy information in root canal therapy evaluation. However, the fuzzy boundary makes the tooth root segmentation very challenging. In this paper, we propose
