Dental Analysis and Determination of Occupational Activities in a Peruvian Formative Population

open access: yesDental Anthropology, 1997
Dental analysis of the individuals excavated from the Roca Verde Site in southern Peru demonstrated a relationship between dental pathology and sex-related occupational activities in a Formative Period population. Instances of dental attrition, abrasion,

A 3D‐Printed Blister Test Platform for Quantifying Biointerface Adhesion Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed blister platform enables energy‐resolved characterization of soft hydrogel–rigid interfaces. Integrating precision pressure control with hyperelastic modeling directly quantifies adhesion energy (G) and R‐curve toughening. Results reveal that modulating hydrogel concentration and surface roughness drives a tunable transition from cohesive ...

Smart Denture with Embedded Thin‐Film Temperature Sensors Patterned by Femtosecond Laser Pulse for Elderly Healthcare

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
We demonstrate the direct‐laser patterning of a gold thin film on polymethyl methacrylate to fabricate a temperature sensor for dentures. The temperature sensor‐embedded smart dentures are evaluated in an oral environment, enabling in‐situ monitoring for elderly healthcare.

Tooth eruption status and bite force determine dental microwear texture gradients in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus forma domestica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

Abrasive wear behavior of silane treated nanoalumina filled dental composite under food slurry and distilled water condition

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2018
The aims of the present study were to develop a dental composite filled with silanized nanoalumina and then to investigate the effect of nanoalumina filler on the two-body and three-body wear behavior under distilled water and food slurry medium ...

Abrasivity of dentrifices: An update

open access: yesSRM Journal of Research in Dental Sciences, 2016
Tooth abrasion is a leading dental problem in common population. The main culprit of this is toothpaste abrasives. Hence, measurement and standardization of toothpaste is required. Various recommended methods were described previously.

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and

Inter‐microscope comparability of dental microwear texture data obtained from different optical profilometers: Part II Deriving instrument‐specific correction equations for meta‐analyses using published data

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has emerged as a valuable method for investigating the feeding ecology of vertebrates. Over the past decade, three‐dimensional topographic data from microscopic regions of tooth surfaces have been collected, and surface texture parameters have been published for both extant and fossil species.

El bruxismo como causa de desgaste dental

open access: yesRevista Argentina de Antropología Biológica
La masticación es considerada la función principal del sistema estomatognático y de los dientes. Estudios realizados en los años 70 y 80, revelaron que practicamente no hay contacto dentario durante la masticación, excepto durante la fase de máxima ...

Preliminary Assessment of Risk Factors for Tooth Wear

open access: yesJournal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2017
Background: Epidemiological studies have reported an increasing prevalence of tooth wear, and general dental practitioners see a greater number of patients seeking treatment with worn dentition.
