Back in 2003, Shimada studied the dentition of Great White sharks of known body size, he concluded the roots and the crowns of the teeth did not grow at the same rate as the shark grew. Based on this finding, he came up with a linear relationship (Y = mX + b) between the crown h...
While having an X-ray of a tooth doesn’t necessarily carry more weight than information recorded in a patient’s chart as text, it certainly can be a valuable aid in documenting (often at just a glance) a tooth’s needed treatment. ...
In some embodiments, the individual tooth models include data representing hidden tooth surfaces, such as roots imaged through x-ray, CT scan, or MRI techniques. Tooth roots and hidden surfaces also can be extrapolated from the visible surfaces of the patient's teeth. The IDDS is then ...

Flow chart outlining the search strategy and results along various steps. Full size image Quantitative analyses In summary, 10 studies reporting on 13 different samples were eligible for meta-analysis resulting in 6 separate syntheses on the outcomes of 4 OHRQoL instruments (Table3, Figures2,3,4,...
“Dentists are professionals in the domain of health who sell dental prostheses. They would not sell a dental wig.” The fundamental difference between dental wig and dental prostheses is first that a wig has no metallic hooks. A metallic hook necessitates an X-ray of support tooth before han...
High quality images of one wild-type (WT) mouse skull (D1404) and of two mutant mice skulls (D1437 and M12) were obtained using X-ray synchrotron microtomography at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF, Grenoble, France), beamline BM5, with a monochromatic beam at energy of ...
