Digital muscle reconstructions are opening up a whole new world in understanding anatomy! In this study, we are thrilled to show that surface scans can capture rotator cuff volumes across a range of hominoids, while identifying challenges with less well‐defined muscles like the teres major.

Using microtomographic scans of modern human arm and forearm bones and anterior dentition, we quantified cortical bone and dentine volumes and their topographic distribution. Our results revealed a co‐variation between cortical bone and dentine volumes, suggesting shared factors influencing their postnatal development.

Thickness measurements and micro‐CT imaging of human temporo‐mandibular discs
This study aimed to analyze the morphology of human temporo‐mandibular discs. We measured thickness at nine points, observed disc perforations, and highlighted the potential of micro‐CT imaging to map thickness variations and improve the diagnosis of TMJ‐related conditions like osteoarthritis.

The BruxChecker system provides excellent reliability in measuring the occlusal peeled area for quantitatively assessing the grinding type of sleep bruxism at the dental level in young adults with healthy dentitions. The highest reliability was achieved using the BruxChecker for two or three consecutive nights and scanning by transillumination.

Temporomandibular Disorder in Domestic Waste Collectors: Cross‐Sectional Study
ABSTRACT Background Musculoskeletal disorders are prevalent among waste collectors, yet the temporomandibular disorder (TMD) assessment within this group remains overlooked. Objective This cross‐sectional study examined TMD in domestic waste collectors and its association with their work. Methods The study involved 288 adult men from a waste collection

ABSTRACT Background Sleep bruxism (SB) is defined as a masticatory muscle activity during sleep characterised by a multifactorial aetiology. Tobacco smoking and psychological status are considered predisposing factors for SB, but their mutual interaction remains unclear. Objective To investigate the relationship between self‐report SB, tobacco smoking,
