Integrated microanatomy and microstructure of the maxillary tooth plate reveal a reinforced feeding system and tougher diet in Late Triassic Hyperodapedontinae (Rhynchosauria, Archosauromorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hyperodapedontine rhynchosaurs possessed a unique oral apparatus, long interpreted as an adaptation for processing abrasive and resistant plant material. However, the microanatomical and histological evidence supporting this interpretation remains poorly documented.

Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

Bone stability after regenerative peri‐implantitis treatment: A 10‐year follow‐up case study

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis poses a significant challenge to implant longevity, leading to progressive bone loss and potential implant failure. While reconstructive surgery has been proven effective in regenerating peri‐implant tissues, the long‐term stability of the regenerated tissues and the impact of supportive peri‐implant care (SPIC) on ...

Volumetric analysis of root coverage with porcine acellular dermal matrix: Case study

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gingival recession is prevalent and often treated with coronally advanced flap plus connective tissue graft (CAF+CTG). Porcine acellular dermal matrix (PADM) offers a donor‐site‐free alternative. Contemporary digital imaging allows minimally invasive, three‐dimensional (3D) soft‐tissue assessment. This case report quantified 3D soft‐

Tooth fracture frequency in gray wolves reflects prey availability

eLife, 2019
Exceptionally high rates of tooth fracture in large Pleistocene carnivorans imply intensified interspecific competition, given that tooth fracture rises with increased bone consumption, a behavior that likely occurs when prey are difficult to acquire. To

The influence of systemic condition and medications on alveolar bone loss and tooth attrition

, 2023
Abstract Background Periodontitis is an infectious disease leading to reduced periodontal support, reflected radiographically as marginal bone loss (MBL). Periodontitis is linked to systemic conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, arthritis, etc.
