Is Cone‐Beam CT Reliable for Apical Foramen Assessment? A Micro‐CT–Referenced Study
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of two cone‐beam CT (CBCT) dose protocols for identifying the number and trajectory deviation of apical foramina. Forty lower molars were scanned in Micro‐CT. Thereafter, all teeth were inserted into the mandible sockets and a titanium implant and an endodontically treated tooth with a cobalt ...

Discuss the Rationale for Minimally Invasive Endodontics and the Merits and Demerits of the Concept
ABSTRACT Minimally invasive endodontics (MIE) places emphasis on the conservation of sound tooth structure and viable pulp tissue during endodontic procedures such as root canal treatment (RCTx) and vital pulp therapy (VPT). The use of minimal access cavity designs and conservative canal preparation dimensions have been investigated as a way to improve

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions
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.
