Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

Model‐Based Cost‐Effectiveness of Direct Restorations: Amalgam Dominates
Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives A phase‐down of dental amalgam use has been mandated and the feasibility of its phase‐out in England by 2030 is being explored. Amalgam use in English National Health Service (NHS) care still predominates for posterior restorations, though access to this care is increasingly limited.

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives Understudied populations such as those with intellectual disabilities (ID) face significant disease burden and oral health disparities. Systematic exclusion from oral health research contributes to resultant health inequalities, limits understanding of the determinants and implications of disease, and hinders the ability to improve ...

Homo luzonensis and the role of homoplasy in the morphology of hominin insular species
Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Homo luzonensis lived during the upper Pleistocene in the northern Philippines, east of the Wallace line. The few specimens attributed to this species show a mosaic of plesiomorphies for the genus Homo and apomorphies found in upper Pleistocene Homo species.

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction In single‐tooth replacement in the aesthetic zone, extensive bone defects require alveolar ridge reconstruction. A digital workflow involving CBCT and intraoral optical scanning enables a three‐dimensional assessment, prosthetically driven implant positioning, computer‐assisted implant surgery, and prefabrication of a temporary ...

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the effect of the width of the buccal gap on the alveolar process reduction after immediate implant placement (IIP) at maxillary central incisor sites, compared to contralateral pristine tooth sites. Material and Methods Twenty‐eight subjects who were treated with IIP to replace a maxillary central incisor and presented ...

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the long‐term prevalence of buccal ridge concavity (BRC) following implant placement with simultaneous contour bone augmentation (CBA). Methods Adult patients with at least one single‐tooth non‐molar implant‐supported prosthesis and no diagnosis of peri‐implantitis were included in this exploratory cross‐sectional study.
