Perikymata: A Non-existent Term. A Scientific Literature Invention? Terminology Analysis and Proposal

SUMMARY: The constant and gradual apposition of the enamel during odontogenesis forms different histological structures on the tooth, including the perikymata, which appear on the crown surface as ridges between two imbrication lines. Although they are enameldependent structures described in various...

Terminology Analysis and ProposalRoa,Ignaciodel Sol,Mariano Enamel Perikymata Terminologia Histologica SUMMARY: The constant and gradual apposition of the enamel during odontogenesis forms different histological structures on the tooth, including the perikymata, which appear on the crown surface as ridges between two imbrication lines. Although they are enameldependent structures described in various scientific texts and publications, they are not included in the enamel-dependent histological terms published in the Terminologia Histologica. The aim of this study was to analyze the term perikymata from a linguistic point of view and propose it as a new histological term. The word perikymata is derived from the Greek words perí 'around'+ kyma, 'wave', introduced by Preiswerk in 1895. Although the term is descriptive in itself, concentrating only information about the structure in a single word, as the terminology establishes, this does not indicate its location. We propose the term perikymata enamelis (perikymata of the enamel) be added. Although proposing new terms that are more in line with the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA) and its terminology poses great challenges, a term is not just a word that makes reference to a morphological structure, it is also a unit of language, a means of communication, which in this case unites the morphological community in a single language.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSociedad Chilena de AnatomíaInternational Journal of Morphology v.35 n.4 20172017-12-01text/htmlhttp://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0717-95022017000401230en10.4067/S0717-95022017000401230
