Restoration of human tooth enamel
Human tooth enamel, consisting of hydroxyapatite nanocrystals (∼85–88 vol%), proteins (∼2‐3 vol%), and requisite water (∼10–12 vol%), is 1–3 mm thick at the outer layer of the tooth.

ABSTRACT Background Short Fibre Reinforced Composite resins may be used to restore odontogenic tissues and have enhanced physical and mechanical properties compared with conventional resins. However, their surface characteristics remain a concern, and this has limited their use as direct dental restorative materials.

ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to compare the radiopacity of composite resins (CR) used as lining, base, and core‐build up materials with enamel and dentine and evaluate their compliance with ISO 4049. Methods Specimens of 1, 2, and 3 mm thicknesses; (n = 6) were fabricated from 13 low‐viscosity and 10 regular‐viscosity CRs.

ABSTRACT The aim was to examine whether a Ca(OH)2 paste affects fracture strength of teeth. Sixty extracted maxillary central incisors were prepared to simulate immature teeth. Another 40 were used as mature teeth. The ten groups (n = 10) were: (1) immature control; (2) immature + access; (3) immature + access + 1 m Ca(OH)2; (4) immature + access + 12 ...

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions
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.

Chromatin Remodeller BRD9 Orchestrates Odontoblastic Differentiation via Coordinating RUNX2‐KLF4
During odontoblast lineage commitment, the chromatin remodeller BRD9 acts as a critical epigenetic coordinator, orchestrating the chromatin landscape to facilitate synergistic binding of key transcription factors RUNX2 and KLF4 to target loci for odontogenesis.
