The interaction between genetics and tissue environment shapes how individual teeth form in different regions of the jaw. While most experimental studies have focused on mandibular (lower jaw) teeth, ...
The aim of this study was to compare mandibular form (i.e., size and shape) between patients with agenesis of the lower second premolar (P2) and a control group with no agenesis. Three hypotheses were ...
Representative images and heatmaps illustrate how human fetal tooth germs from the upper and lower jaws, although morphologically similar at the cap stage, already display distinct gene expression ...
Current strategies for jaw reconstruction require multiple procedures, first to repair the bone defect to offer sufficient support, and then to place the tooth implant. The entire procedure can be ...
Impacted teeth pose significant risks to oral health, ranging from cyst formation to arch crowding. Early detection remains ...
Evolution, Vol. 75, No. 12 (DECEMBER 2021), pp. 3203-3213 (11 pages) Dollo’s law of irreversibility states that once a complex structure is lost, it cannot be regained in the same form. Several ...
Meet one of your primal ancestors. He's not your immediate relative, but he may be the origin of the human species. The picture below is his lower jaw (i.e., mandible). I don't know how old Rick was ...
