Sentence examples for potential tooth from inspiring English sources
Understanding the three-dimensional probe motion and how this is affected by contact with tooth surfaces may lead to future instrument designs with improved cleaning efficiency whilst minimising potential tooth damage.
For dentate participants, each potential tooth in the dentition was classified as being decayed (D), missing due to caries (M), or filled without decay (F).
(3) Thresholding: a curvature threshold value is inevitably needed to separate potential tooth boundary regions from the rest when using curvature fields for boundary identification.
For some complicated dental models, however (e.g., in cases of adjacent teeth crowding when the interstices in between are irregular and difficult to distinguish), the potential tooth boundary region may still be incomplete even after morphologic operation.
Many tooth segmentation methods prefer to use surface curvature when identifying potential tooth boundaries, as they follow the most widely cited mesh segmentation criterion, the minima rule, which states that human perception usually divides a surface into parts along the concave discontinuity of the tangent plane [ 3, 4].
In mice, the dental epithelium prior to embryonic day 12 (E12) possesses odontogenic potential (tooth-inducing capability) and is capable of inducing tooth formation when confronted with mesenchymal tissue of non-dental origin [ 16].

Only 16 patients remained after the selection process, giving a potential 448 teeth to be analysed.
Owens [ 26] concluded that these energy drinks had strong erosive potential on teeth possibly due to a high buffering capacity.
The results of this study indicate that iron has staining potential on teeth when tested in vitro and ferrous oxide polymaltose (FOP) presents worse results after longer exposure periods (48 h).
A close relationship exists between the bone density and anchorage potential, rate of tooth movement, and success of dental implants [2 4].
