Abstract Objective Periodontitis is one of the most important periodontal diseases that can be affected by many factors. Although the mechanism of periodontitis development is not yet fully understood, previous studies suggest that apoptosis may be one of the pathological factors that can affect the process of the disease by destroying old and damaged ...

Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Abstract This article reviews the pathological changes in the enamel of permanent mandibular cheek teeth and their sequelae in European roe deer from regions polluted by anthropogenic fluoride emissions. The primary (developmental) changes of fluorotic roe deer enamel are hypomineralization and microstructural aberrations, including enamel hypoplasia ...

Wiring the senses: Factors that regulate peripheral axon pathfinding in sensory systems
Abstract Sensory neurons of the head are the ones that transmit the information about the external world to our brain for its processing. Axons from cranial sensory neurons sense different chemoattractant and chemorepulsive molecules during the journey and in the target tissue to establish the precise innervation with brain neurons and/or receptor ...

Periodontal Bone Loss Analysis via Keypoint Detection With Heuristic Post-Processing [PDF]
Calculating percentage bone loss is a critical test for periodontal disease staging but is sometimes imprecise and time consuming when manually calculated. This study evaluates the application of a deep learning keypoint and object detection model, YOLOv8-pose, for the automatic identification of localised periodontal bone loss landmarks, conditions ...

Expert perspective: How, When, and Why to Potentially Stop Anti‐resorptive Drugs in Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease and anti‐resorptive treatments are often continued for many years. Despite their established efficacy in reducing fracture risk, the most commonly used anti‐resorptive treatments bisphosphonates and denosumab have short and longer term risks that, coupled with their benefits and other unique characteristics, influence ...

Transformer-Based Tooth Alignment Prediction With Occlusion And Collision Constraints [PDF]
The planning of digital orthodontic treatment requires providing tooth alignment, which not only consumes a lot of time and labor to determine manually but also relays clinical experiences heavily. In this work, we proposed a lightweight tooth alignment neural network based on Swin-transformer.
