Bears deviate from the inhibitory cascade model (ICM) during molar size evolution, with two significant deviations linked to changes in diet: Ursus minimus and Ursus deningeri. Many bears exhibit a ‘partial ICM’, highlighting the relationship between relative molar size, dietary adaptations and dental development across different species.

Mechanical adaptation of trabecular bone morphology in the mammalian mandible [PDF]
Alveolar bone, together with the underlying trabecular bone, fulfils an important role in providing structural support against masticatory forces. Diseases such as osteoporosis or periodontitis cause alveolar bone resorption which weakens this structural

Implant Therapy in Patients With Neurodegenerative Diseases—A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Objectives The increasing longevity of populations has resulted in a growing number of older adults requiring prosthodontic care, including those with neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). Neurodegenerative diseases pose significant challenges to prosthodontic care, and it remains unclear whether implant therapy in this population achieves ...

ABSTRACT Background Aging is associated with a decline in physiological functions. Dysphagia, a disorder among older adults, impairs feeding and is related to morphological and functional changes in the stomatognathic system, which worsen with age‐related physiological decline, particularly among institutionalised older adults.
