Were are cavities most likely to be found?
Mostly on your posterior teeth, molars and such, because that's where most people brush the least. Also other areas where plaque builds up, like in between your teeth. Those are called 'interproximal lesions' and can be prevented by flossing or using interdental brushes. Most cavities on your front teeth are interproximal too.
What is a bite-wing in dentistry?
A type of radiograph (x-ray) which only shows the crowns (part of the tooth visible in the mouth) of several upper and lower teeth. Usually used to check for caries (decay) in the interproximal areas (between teeth) of posterior (back) teeth.
Where do bacteria grow on teeth?
Without adequate oral hygiene, bacteria can grow anywhere on a tooth. However, the most common areas are the sulcus (space between the tooth and gum) interproximal (between the teeth) and in the grooves of the biting surface.
Pertaining between the teeth?
The term "pertaining between the teeth" typically refers to the area known as the interproximal space, which is the small gap between adjacent teeth. This space is important for dental health, as it can harbor plaque and food particles, making regular flossing essential to prevent cavities and gum disease. Proper oral hygiene practices, including brushing and flossing, help maintain the health of these areas. Regular dental check-ups are also crucial for monitoring and managing interproximal health.
