Beeswax as Dental Filling on a Neolithic Human Tooth
Evidence of prehistoric dentistry has been limited to a few cases, the most ancient dating back to the Neolithic. Here we report a 6500-year-old human mandible from Slovenia whose left canine crown bears the traces of a filling with beeswax. The use of different analytical techniques, including synchrotron radiation computed micro-tomography (micro-CT), Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) radio...
متن کاملDelayed tooth replantation: MTA as root canal filling.
MTA has been investigated as a root-end filling material. Its mechanism of action has some similarities to that of Ca(OH)2. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the repair process taking place in the delayed replantation of monkey teeth using calcium hydroxide and MTA as root canal filling materials. Five monkeys had their lateral incisors extracted and bench-dried for 60 minutes. After ro...
متن کاملEvaluating the Effect of Dental Filling Material and Filling Depth on the Strength and Deformation of Filled Teeth
ackground and aim: It is important to evaluate the effect of the type of filling material on deformation and strength of tooth after filling and also the effect of filling depth on quality of restoration of a decayed tooth. Material and Methods: The Orthopantomogram (OPG) of the first and second molars of a 28-year-old man was made and the teeth were 3D modeled. The stress-deformation analysis ...
متن کاملInterspecific variation in beeswax as a biological construction material.
Beeswax is a multicomponent material used by bees in the genus Apis to house larvae and store honey and pollen. We characterized the mechanical properties of waxes from four honeybee species: Apis mellifera L., Apis andreniformis L., Apis dorsata L. and two subspecies of Apis cerana L. In order to isolate the material effects from the architectural properties of nest comb, we formed raw wax in ...
متن کاملDeciduous Tooth and Dental Caries
In humans, deciduous tooth development begins before birth and is complete by about the fourth postnatal year. They are lost when the patient becomes 11 years old. The permanent teeth appear by 6-7 years (and later for the wisdom teeth). Most are successional, and a few are non successional. The coronal part of the human tooth is composed of two hard tissues: enamel and dentin, and this part in...
