The dentin–enamel junction (DEJ), which is the interfacial region between the dentin and outer enamel coating in teeth, is known for its unique biomechanical properties that provide a crack-arrest ...

Dentin hypersensitivity is among the most frequently reported dental concerns. This condition primarily occurs due to dentin exposure to thermal, chemical or osmotic stimuli, thereby causing extreme ...

Dentin or dentine is a layer of material that lies immediately underneath the enamel of the tooth. It is one of the four major components of the tooth which comprises: The outer hard enamel The dentin ...

It happens to everyone when you least expect it—a quick swig of hot chocolate after coming in from the cold and ouch! Your teeth react to the temperature change as if you had been chewing on tin foil.

Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is effective in treatment of dentin hypersensitivity and caries lesions. However, the non-viscous solution does not easily allow clinicians to control the application ...

Teeth are composites of mineral and protein, with a bulk of bony dentin that is highly porous. This structure allows teeth to be both strong and sensitive. Besides calcium and phosphate, teeth contain ...

Enamel is the outer protective layer of the tooth. Beneath it lies the dentine which contains microscopic tubules, or channels, leading to the tooth's pulp. When the enamel is worn down, it exposes ...

Dentin is one of the most durable biological materials in the human body. Researchers from Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin were able to show that the reason for this can be traced to its ...

Dentin hypersensitivity (DH), more commonly known as sensitive teeth, refers to a type of dental pain. Discomfort typically arises from exposed dentin responding to heat, cold, touch, pressure, or ...

Dentin hypersensitivity is an oral condition characterized by a sharp pain in the affected tooth or teeth. The stimuli expose the dentin. It typically responds to thermal, evaporative, tactile, or ...
