What is a dental sinus? A dental sinus is an abnormal channel that drains from a longstanding dental abscess associated with a necrotic or dead tooth. A dental sinus may drain to: 1  the inside of the mouth (an intraoral sinus), or,  the skin surface of the face or neck (an extraoral, orofacial sinus)

- In dogs, the normal depth of the gingival sulcus is 1 to 3 mm. In cats, the normal depth is up to 0.5 mm. Figure 4: The periodontal probe has been inserted at the distolabial aspect of the right maxillary canine tooth (A); it is removed (B) and reinserted at the labial aspect of the tooth (C).

Sulcus (neuroanatomy) Structure [edit]. Sulci are one of three parts of the cerebral cortex, the others being the gyri and the fissures. The three different parts create a larger surface area for the human brain and other mammalian brains. When looking at the human brain, two-thirds of the surface is hidden in the grooves.The sulci and fissures are both grooves in the cortex but they are differentiated by size. A sulcus is a shallower groove that surrounds a gyrus.hen looking at the human brain, two-thirds of the surface is hidden in the grooves.

All about gum disease All about gum disease. Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection that causes a chronic inflammation of the gums and surrounding tissue. It is the major cause of about 70% of adult tooth loss, affecting nearly 80% of people at some point in their life.

Dental plaque Dental plaque. Dental plaque is a biofilm or mass of bacteria that grows on surfaces within the mouth. It is a sticky colorless deposit at first, but when it forms tartar, it is often brown or pale yellow.

Cavities Related Conditions. Cavities are a result of poor oral hygiene and retained dental plaque on the tooth surface. Specific bacteria in plaque cause decay. Different types of bacteria in plaque, retained near the gum line, cause gum disease to occur, which is a condition that your dentist and periodontist can help treat.

- Periodontitis, also known as gum disease and pyorrhea, is a set of inflammatory diseases affecting the tissues surrounding the teeth. Periodontitis involves progressive loss of the alveolar bone around the teeth, and if left untreated, can lead to the loosening and subsequent loss of teeth.

sulcus sulcus. A depression or a groove found on the surface of an organ or tissue, as on the surface of the brain separating adjacent convolutions. Large sulci that divide the brain into lobes as well as the two hemispheres are more often called fissures.

Tartar on Teeth Tartar on Teeth Teeth tartar, also called dental calculus, is a crusty deposit that can trap stains on the teeth and cause discoloration. It creates a strong bond that can only be removed by a dental professional.

Dental Plaque Dental plaque is one of your mouth’s greatest enemies. When plaque builds up on your teeth, it thins the enamel layer, and is one of the causative factors for cavities and tooth decay. In addition, bacteria from plaque can cause bad breath, gingivitis and periodontal problems in severe cases.

Dental Caries (Cavities) Dental caries is the scientific term for tooth decay or cavities. It is caused by specific types of bacteria. They produce acid that destroys the tooth's enamel and the layer under it, the dentin. Many different types of bacteria normally live in the human mouth.

What is Gum Disease? Gum disease is a chronic bacterial infection that is characterized by loss of attachment between the teeth and the supporting bone, due to destruction of the periodontal ligaments and jawbone loss. If it is left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss.

Sulcus (neuroanatomy) In neuroanatomy, a sulcus (Latin : furrow, pl. sulci) is a depression or groove in the cerebral cortex.It surrounds a gyrus (pl. gyri), creating the characteristic folded appearance of the brain in humans and other mammals.tructure [edit]. Sulci are one of three parts of the cerebral cortex, the others being the gyri and the fissures. The three different parts create a larger surface area for the human brain and other mammalian brains. When looking at the human brain, two-thirds of the surface is hidden in the grooves.

- When we remove the calcified deposits on the surfaces of the teeth below the gums, the bacteria lose their “base of operations.” If the tooth surfaces can be kept free of bacterial plaque and calcified plaque called calculus (tartar), the infection can be arrested. The gums can’t heal in the presence of calculus.

- Tooth decay, which is also called dental cavities or dental caries, is the destruction of the outer surface (enamel) of a tooth. Decay results from the action of bacteria that live in plaque, which is a sticky, whitish film formed by a protein in saliva (mucin) and sugary substances in the mouth.

Gum Disease (Gingivitis) Your gums actually attach to the teeth at a lower point than the gum edges that we see. This forms a small space called a sulcus. Food can get trapped in this space and cause a gum infection or gingivitis. Plaque is a thin film of bacteria. It constantly forms on the surface of your teeth.As plaque advances, it hardens and becomes tartar.our gums actually attach to the teeth at a lower point than the gum edges that we see.

The Dentistâs Guide to a Basic Teeth Cleaning This bacteria found in plaque is what causes gum disease and tooth decay if not removed by daily brushing and flossing, as well as routine trips to the dentist. Tarter, or dental calculus, is a hard calcified deposit that forms on the teeth and can contribute to their decay.
