Bending performance changes during prolonged canine eruption in saber‐toothed carnivores: A case study of Smilodon fatalis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The canine of saber‐toothed predators represents one of the most specialized dental structures known. Hypotheses about the function of hypertrophied canines range from display and conspecific interaction, soft food processing, to active prey acquisition.

Lightweight Combinational Machine Learning Algorithm for Sorting Canine Torso Radiographs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The veterinary field lacks automation in contrast to the tremendous technological advances made in the human medical field. Implementation of machine learning technology can shorten any step of the automation process. This paper explores these core concepts and starts with automation in sorting radiographs for canines by view and anatomy.

Impacted maxillary canines and root resorption of adjacent teeth : a retrospective observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The prevalence of impacted maxillary canine is reported to be between 1% and 3%. The lack of monitoring and the delay in the treatment of the impacted canine can cause different complications such as: displacement of adjacent teeth, loss of vitality of ...

Comparing cranial biomechanics between Barbourofelis fricki and Smilodon fatalis: Is there a universal killing‐bite among saber‐toothed predators?

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Saber‐tooths, extinct apex predators with long and blade‐like upper canines, have appeared iteratively at least five times in the evolutionary history of vertebrates. Although saber‐tooths exhibit a relatively diverse range of morphologies, it is widely accepted that all killed their prey using the same predatory behavior. In this study, we CT‐

The prevalence of impacted permanent maxillary canines in Maltese school children : a pilot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The aetiology of ectopic canines is not clear. A number of causes have been put forward such as the long path of eruption of the maxillary canine, lack of guidance by the lateral incisor root, narrow arches, cystic enlargement of the dental follicle ...
