Tooth row allometry in domestic rabbits and nondomestic lagomorphs: Evidence for a decoupling of body and tooth row size changes in evolutionary time

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Domestic rabbits of different body sizes differ disproportionately in the length of their tooth row or the length of their diastema. Abstract In various domestic mammals, smaller breeds tend to have proportionally larger teeth, whereas this is not a universal trend across mammals.

Digitally guided corticotomy using a customized surgical template (Suya corticotomy utility template): A technique report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Precise control of corticotomy lines is critical in surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy. The Suya method is traditionally performed freehand, which introduces risks of root damage and procedural inconsistency. A digitally guided protocol may address these limitations by enhancing safety and technical predictability. Methods A
