Dental Anatomy
Dental Anatomy refers to the study of the structure, function, and development of the teeth and surrounding tissues in the oral cavity. It includes the examination of the different types of teeth, their components such as enamel, dentin, and pulp, as well as the study of the supporting structures like the gums, alveolar bone, and periodontal ligaments. Understanding dental anatomy is essential for dental professionals to diagnose, treat, and prevent oral health issues effectively.
