Using nanoscale technology, researchers have, for the first time, produced detailed 3-D maps of the composition and structure of mature human tooth enamel. The maps show the position of atoms critical ...

New studies shed light on ancient creatures' dental structure and wear -- and how these unique characteristics helped them live and adapt to their environments. A trio of published studies have ...

The structure of our teeth goes beyond mere aesthetics; it plays a crucial role in determining overall health. From oral hygiene to systemic well-being, the condition of our teeth influences various ...

The human body is remarkable in its ability to repair and regenerate damaged tissues. Whether it's a cut on the skin or a ...

This is the second edition of a book originally published in 1998. It has a foreword by Edwina Kidd, whose association must surely endorse it as an important reference text. Initially, it is difficult ...

The Tyrannosaurus rex and its fellow theropod dinosaurs that rampage across the screen in movies like Jurassic World were successful predators partly due to a unique, deeply serrated tooth structure ...

Andre Studart, Professor of Complex Materials, said that they were able to produce a tough, multi-layered material based on the construction principle of teeth or seashells. New Procedure that allows ...

Mice deficient in the EDA protein lack normal tooth features. Restoring EDA in embryonic teeth at increasing doses has now been found to recover these dental features in a stepwise pattern that mimics ...

The Middle Triassic was an important time in the evolutionary history of reptiles because it was during this time that many modern groups originated and initially diversified. In this context, the ...
