A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...

Dental development in the tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) and the evolution of vertebrate dentitions

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion.

Evaluation of Panoramic Acquisition Errors by Predoctoral Dental Students

open access: yesJournal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Panoramic radiography is commonly used in the management of dental‐alveolar pathology. Novice clinicians are prone to technical errors that diminish the diagnostic quality of radiographs. The objective of this study was to analyze technical errors made during panoramic exposures by third‐year (D3) dental students in order to enhance
