The Effects of Experimental Whole-Body Burning on Histological Age-at-Death Estimation from Human Cortical Bone and Dental Cementum [PDF]
Biology, 2022 Whole-body donations (n = 6) were placed in various experimental fire-death scenarios to understand the histological effects of thermal alteration on bones and teeth. Midshaft samples of the femur, 6th rib, and metatarsal were removed from each donor pre-

Comparative proteomic analysis of dental cementum from deciduous and permanent teeth. [PDF]
J Periodontal Res, 2021 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Dental cementum (DC) is a mineralized tissue covering tooth roots that plays a critical role in dental attachment. Differences in deciduous vs. permanent tooth DC have not been explored.

Dental cementum virtual histology of Neanderthal teeth from Krapina (Croatia, 130-120 kyr): an informed estimate of age, sex and adult stressors. [PDF]
J R Soc Interface, 2022 The evolution of modern human reproductive scheduling is an aspect of our life history that remains vastly uncomprehended. The present work aims to address this gap by validating a non-destructive cutting-edge methodology to infer adult life-history ...

What do rates of deposition of dental cementum tell us? Functional and evolutionary hypotheses in red deer. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Cementum is a bone connective tissue that provides a flexible attachment for the tooth to the alveolar bone in many mammalian species. It does not undergo continuous remodelling, unlike non-dental bone, which combined with its growth pattern of seasonal ...

rhBMP-2 Pre-Treated Human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cell Sheets Regenerate a Mineralized Layer Mimicking Dental Cementum. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2020 The periodontal complex consisting of alveolar bone, cementum, and periodontal ligaments (PDL) supports human teeth through the systematic orchestration of mineralized tissues and fibrous tissues. Importantly, cementum, the outermost mineralized layer of

Biomimetic properties of engineered periodontal ligament/cementum in dental implants
Contemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2020 The conventional concept of osseointegrated dental implants based on direct connection to alveolar bone lacks a structured periodontal ligament (PDL) as in natural tooth.

Forensic significance of dental cementum
Brazilian Journal of Oral SciencesAim: To determine new energy parameters in micro-CT to allow appropriate segmentation of dental cementum from the surrounding structures. Methods: For this pilot study, 11 single-rooted premolar teeth of young subjects aged 12 to 21 were selected. The teeth were scanned using high-energy microtomography (SkyScan 1173, Bruker) with varying acquisition ...

Global proteome profiling of dental cementum under experimentally-induced apposition. [PDF]
J Proteomics, 2016 Dental cementum (DC) covers the tooth root and has important functions in tooth attachment and position. DC can be lost to disease, and regeneration is currently unpredictable due to limited understanding of DC formation. This study used a model of experimentally-induced apposition (EIA) in mice to identify proteins associated with new DC formation ...
