Tóm tắt

This article aimed to develop evidence-based anatomical terminology in dentistry agreed upon by experts in multiple fields and ultimately to bridge anatomy and clinical dentistry. A comprehensive list of dental anatomical terminology was detailed in table format, and specific terms of interest were highlighted with their respective literature review. The presence of teeth is a unique feature of the oral cavity where dental professionals work. Dentistry is a highly specialized field focusing on preserving the health of dentition and its supporting and surrounding structures. Thus, "teeth" and "mouth" related anatomical terms must be very specialized for dentistry. Many of the terms highlighted were clinical dental or alveolar-related terms that were not clearly established in the general anatomical terminology. The authors hope the evidence-based anatomical terminology in dentistry developed by a consortium of experts will be generally accepted worldwide and ultimately bridge the fields of anatomy and clinical dentistry.
