Hammas jaotub kaheks olulisemaks osaks: hambakrooniks ja juur(t)eks. ... Krooni ja juurte ühinemiskoht on hambakael (cervix dentis) - piirkond, kus hambakroon (krooni ümbritsev emailikude) ja juur (juure pinda kattev tsement) ühinevad.
Each tooth consists of three portions: the crown, projecting above the gum; the root, imbedded in the alveolus; and the neck, the constricted portion between the crown and root.
The shape of the crown and root vary among different teeth and among different species of animals. ... In mammals an outer layer of enamel, which is wholly inorganic and is the hardest tissue in the body, covers part or all of the crown of the tooth.
