UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011076	Polycarboxylate Cement	Water-soluble low-molecular-weight polymers of acrylic or methacrylic acid that form solid, insoluble products when mixed with specially prepared ZnO powder. The resulting cement adheres to dental enamel and is also used as a luting agent.	Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement,Cement, Polycarboxylate,Cement, Zinc Polycarboxylate,Polycarboxylate Cement, Zinc
D011176	Post and Core Technique	Use of a metal casting, usually with a post in the pulp or root canal, designed to support and retain an artificial crown.

D012117	Resins, Synthetic	Polymers of high molecular weight which at some stage are capable of being molded and then harden to form useful components.	Dental Resins,Dental Resin,Resin, Dental,Resin, Synthetic,Resins, Dental,Synthetic Resin,Synthetic Resins
D003442	Crowns	A prosthetic restoration that reproduces the entire surface anatomy of the visible natural crown of a tooth. It may be partial (covering three or more surfaces of a tooth) or complete (covering all surfaces). It is made of gold or other metal, porcelain, or resin.

D003738	Dental Cements	Substances used to bond COMPOSITE RESINS to DENTAL ENAMEL and DENTIN. These bonding or luting agents are used in restorative dentistry, ROOT CANAL THERAPY; PROSTHODONTICS; and ORTHODONTICS.

D003781	Denture Retention	The retention of a denture in place by design, device, or adhesion.	Denture Stability,Retention, Denture,Stability, Denture
D003804	Dentin	The hard portion of the tooth surrounding the pulp, covered by enamel on the crown and cementum on the root, which is harder and denser than bone but softer than enamel, and is thus readily abraded when left unprotected. (From Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992)	Dentine,Dentines,Dentins
D005899	Glass Ionomer Cements	A polymer obtained by reacting polyacrylic acid with a special anion-leachable glass (alumino-silicate). The resulting cement is more durable and tougher than others in that the materials comprising the polymer backbone do not leach out.
