Papain Gel as a Deproteinizing Agent for Tooth Enamel

Mexican Journal of Medical Research ICSA
Papain gel has been shown to be an effective deproteinizing agent for tooth enamel in several studies. Papain, a proteolytic enzyme derived from papaya, has the ability to break down proteins and remove organic substances adhering to the surface of the ...

Reassessment of Xenodens calminechari with a discussion of tooth morphology in mosasaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Xenodens calminechari is a mosasaurid taxon named by Longrich et al. (2021) based on the holotype MHNM.KH.331, a left maxilla with several teeth. This holotype was obtained nonscientifically (without technical supervision) from an area in Morocco that yields many manipulated or forged specimens. Examination of Longrich et al.

Human hereditary enamel abnormalities – molecular factors and genetic counselling [PDF]

Romanian Journal of Stomatology, 2019
Defective enamel formation may result either from factors of environmental origin or from genetic abnormality. Such genetically determined enamel malformations have been described in patients with chromosomal anomalies and with inherited single gene ...

Incisor cross‐sectional area at the cementoenamel junction correlates with an increased reliance on frugivory in anthropoid primates

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Diet is one of a limited set of key ecological parameters defining primate species. A detailed understanding of dental functional correlates with primate diet is a key component for accurate dietary inference in fossil primates. Although considerable effort has been devoted to understanding post‐canine dental function, incisor function remains

Prevalence of dental anomalies and enamel hypoplasia in primary dentition among preschool children of West Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh -A cross - sectional study

Journal of Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry, 2013
Background: It is axiomatic that Pediatric dental anomalies and enamel hypoplasia (E.H) are routinely encountered in primary dentition and early detection and prudent management of the condition facilitates normal occlusal development.

Mesoscopic modelling of enamel interaction with mid-infrared sub-ablative laser pulses [PDF]

, 2004
Using a finite element approach the authors model the influence of enamel's microstructure and water distribution on the temperature and stress at the centre of the laser spot, for a CO2 laser working at 10.6 μm, with 0.35 μs pulse duration and sub ...

Dietary ecology of Smilodon across time and space: Additional perspectives from Smilodon gracilis and Smilodon fatalis in Florida

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Dental microwear texture analysis of Smilodon samples from Florida's Pleistocene reveals moderate carcass utilization (like modern African lions) across space and time, with more subtle dietary shifts in response to fluctuating climates. Abstract Smilodon, the iconic saber‐toothed cat, was a Pleistocene apex predator comprised of three morphologically ...

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Msx2 in ameloblast cell fate and activity

Frontiers in Physiology, 2015
While many effectors have been identified in enamel matrix and cells via genetic studies, physiological networks underlying their expression levels and thus the natural spectrum of enamel thickness and degree of mineralization are now just emerging ...
