crown. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05 The crown as used in medieval and modern times is an elaboration of the diadem and is generally made of metal, often gold inlaid with precious gems. The crown became thoroughly identified with the functions of monarchy, and the term crown is often used in a purely institutional sense, as in crown lands, crown colonies, and crown debt. Among famous crowns of historic interest are the Lombard iron crown, kept at Monza, Italy; the crown of Charlemagne, at Vienna, Austria; and the sacred crown of St. Stephen of Hungary. www.bartleby.com /65/cr/crown.html   (360 words)

Dental Crown Best Replacements Problems Ask The Dentist Questions Better To Fix Repair Replace Failed Bad Porcelain ... I was in to have a loose crown repaired and after a complete exam was advised that the lower left wisdom tooth and the upper right molar closest to the wisdom tooth needed crowns. The new crowns have only chips on the face of the tooth and none on the back surface, which would indicate to me that, if endeed grinding were involved, the back of the crown would be damaged also. At the time the crown was put in, twelve years ago, the dentist had root canal done and then inserted a metal post, with a "ball" attached, inside the remainder of the tooth. www.dental--health.com /faq_crowns.html   (7021 words)

Chapter 2 A point angle is formed by the junction of three crown surfaces; the name of the point angle is derived by combining the names of the three surfaces. A lobe is one of the primary anatomical divisions of a crown; all teeth develop from either four or five lobes (for example, a central incisor forms from four lobes while first molars develop from five lobes.) Lobes are usually separated by readily identifiable developmental grooves.

Advantage Dental Plans   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29) A natural crown is that portion of the tooth composed of enamel. Although this process is laborious and time consuming, it is necessary because a synthetic crown must duplicate the anatomy and function of the natural crown and fit so accurately that no leak can occur between the oral fluids and that part of the tooth which the synthetic crown covers. Because crowns fit so accurately, they are readily held in place by a thin layer of cement (dental glue) spread between the synthetic crown and the tooth. www.advantagedental.com /common/faq/crown.html   (178 words)

Crowns Enamel covers the crown of the natural tooth, and protects inner surface of the tooth –dentin and the nerve with vessels-pulp, from outside bacteria.

Restoration, which substitutes the natural crown of the tooth to its anatomical and functional state is also called crown. greenpointdentalcenter.com /crowns.html   (660 words)

Method and apparatus for dental crown removal - Patent 4402671 When removal of the crown is required, the closure screw is removed and replaced with a jack screw long enough to extend through the threaded hole within the sleeve so that it breaks the bond between the crown and the tooth as the jack screw is continuously threaded into the sleeve. With the sleeve cast within the crown and extending through the occlusal surface, it is not possible to reduce the occlusal height of the tooth since this would then destroy the ability of the sleeve to receive the closure screw therein. Even when the crown has been initially cast and installed without the key, it is still possible to remove the crown by forming a pilot hole drilled into the crown followed by the drilling of a larger hole to form a channel. www.freepatentsonline.com /4402671.html   (4441 words)

Closer Look at the Anatomy of a Diamond The pavilion is the counterpoint of the crown in that it is the bottom portion of the diamond. The culet needs to be small enough, and within the correct ratio to the rest of the diamond's anatomy to allow the light to reach it and be refracted back within the diamond and reflected back out of it. Should any of the elements involved be cut incorrectly, resulting in poor symmetry, poor brilliance, poor fire or a combination of the three, light will exit the stone at one of the sides, rather than reflect and refract within the stone, exiting through the table. www.abazias.com /DiamondEducationPF/Diamond_Anatomy_Intermediate.asp   (670 words)

Crowns Ask The Dentist Questions moderated by Dr. Jeffrey Hoos It is important that your crown be put back into place very soon so there are not changes in the positions of your teeth.

I hope your crown fits back into place so you do not have to go to the expense of having a new crown made. www.dental--health.com /crowns2.html   (216 words)

PCSO Bulletin, Fall 2002 Presentation Summary: "Understanding Impacted Teeth – Then Treating Them ... The aims of radiology in relation to impacted teeth are (1) to find the pathology such as supernumerary teeth, cystic damage, ankylosis, abnormality of crown or root, resorption of crown or root, and (2) to find the location using tube-shift method (lateral or vertical shift), panoramic view, views at right angles, and/or computed tomography. Furthermore, the crown anatomy of the affected tooth may have normal size, form, color, and it is supported by its own root (better than anything the dentist can make!).
