WNT10A-SMOC2-LRP4 network affects permanent tooth development via potential tooth-bone interaction

BMC Oral Health
Background Permanent tooth loss is a key feature of non-syndromic tooth agenesis (NSTA). However, whether this is influenced by the mandibular environment remains unclear. We report a case of simultaneous variations in the tooth agenesis-associated genes

What Is the Pterygomandibular Raphe? A Confluence of Fasciae Rather Than a Discrete Structure

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pterygomandibular raphe (PMR) has traditionally been described as a fibrous or tendinous band connecting the bucinator (BM) and superior pharyngeal constrictor (SPCM) muscles. However, recent evidence has questioned its existence. This study aimed to reevaluate the anatomy of the pterygomandibular region by preserving fascial continuity ...

Personalized Gamified Learning in a Course on the Urogenital System Anatomy: Differential Effects Across Learning Preference Profiles

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Personalized learning approaches adapted to individual metacognitive characteristics have demonstrated promise in Anatomy education. However, whether such benefits are uniform across learner profiles or vary systematically remains an open question with implications for individualized instructional approaches.
