Exploring dietary adaptations in Ursus minimus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the mandible

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Using 3D geometric morphometrics, the dietary adaptations of the extinct Auvergne bear (Ursus minimus) are analysed. Its mandibular morphology aligns more closely with omnivorous rather than insectivorous bears, challenging current ideas. The extinct bear Ursus minimus, which lived in Europe during the Pliocene and possibly Early Pleistocene, is ...

Lack of correlation between mouth-breathing and bite force [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The correlation between mouth-breathing and bite force was studied in 81 children, 7 to 16 years old. Mouth-breathing was diagnosed on the basis of the subject history, the rhinomanometrically determined nasal airflow and the size of the airway measured ...

FEM and Von Mises analysis on prosthetic crowns structural elements: evaluation of different applied materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The aim of this paper is to underline the mechanical properties of dental single crown prosthodontics materials in order to differentiate the possibility of using each material for typical clinical condition and masticatory load.

Fossil bears break free from inhibitory cascade constraints at least twice (Ursus minimus and Ursus deningeri) caused by dietary adaptations

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
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.

Predictive value of molar bite force on Class II functional appliance treatment outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Sagittal intermaxillary changes brought about by functional appliances show large inter-individual variation. One factor that may in part explain these differences is the masticatory musculature and its functional capacity. The aims of this study were to

Estimaciones de la fuerza de mordida y su relación con las características de la dieta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
La fuerza de mordida (FM) es un parámetro biomecánico que indica la cantidad de fuerza que se aplica durante la masticación de un determinado tipo de alimento.

Ten‐Year Results of a Prospective Study on One‐Piece Zirconia Oral Implants for Single‐Tooth Reconstruction

open access: yesClinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The intention of this 10‐year prospective cohort investigation was to clinically and radiographically investigate the outcomes of a one‐piece zirconia implant system for single‐tooth replacement. Materials and Methods A total of 65 patients received 66 single‐tooth implants restored with all‐ceramic crowns.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Single‐Implant Mandibular Overdentures: A 8–10 Year Prospective Study Across Two Cohorts

open access: yesClinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the long‐term outcomes of two prospective cohorts of edentulous individuals treated with single implant mandibular overdentures (SIMO) opposed by a conventional maxillary complete denture. Material and Methods A total of 74 participants, treated between 2013 and 2016 at the School of Dentistry of the ...

Equine botulism

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Botulism is a severe and often fatal disease in equine patients worldwide. Clostridium botulinum is a ubiquitous soil organism which produces a potent neurotoxin resulting in neuromuscular blockade and flaccid paralysis in affected animals. Definitive diagnosis is often impractical or impossible, leading to diagnosis and treatment based on ...
