Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

Model‐Based Cost‐Effectiveness of Direct Restorations: Amalgam Dominates

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives A phase‐down of dental amalgam use has been mandated and the feasibility of its phase‐out in England by 2030 is being explored. Amalgam use in English National Health Service (NHS) care still predominates for posterior restorations, though access to this care is increasingly limited.

The Modified Oral Status Survey Tool: Development and Psychometrics for Accessible Oral Health Data Collection

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Understudied populations such as those with intellectual disabilities (ID) face significant disease burden and oral health disparities. Systematic exclusion from oral health research contributes to resultant health inequalities, limits understanding of the determinants and implications of disease, and hinders the ability to improve ...

Repeated Use of Emergency Departments for Nontraumatic Dental Conditions: Factors Associated With Being a Superutilizer

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Due to inadequate access to regular, affordable dental care, many patients turn to emergency departments (EDs) for the treatment of nontraumatic dental conditions (NTDCs). NTDC ED visits are a large burden on the U.S. healthcare system, with over 1.3 million visits each year and over $1 billion in associated charges.
