Cariology and other pathologies of dental hard tissues

Cariology is the science and art of understanding the etiology and mechanisms of the dental caries, including initiation reversal, progression, diagnosis, prognosis, risk management, prevention, non-surgical and surgical therapies and oral health-focused outcomes. Cariology is a major part of the science called pathology of the hard dental tissues, which encompasses both anomalies of the tooth occurring before and during tooth eruption and post-eruptive pathological conditions. Post- eruptive pathologies of hard dental tissues include tooth wear, tooth resorption and discoloration of teeth. Each of these will be discussed here in more detail.
