Fall 2017
The first histological study of an entire hadrosaurid dental battery provides a better understanding of this complex structure. The hadrosaurid dental battery is composed of interlocking, vertically stacked columns of teeth that form a complex grinding surface. The dental battery was previously...

The Effect of Gingival Fibroblasts and Ultrasound on Orthodontically Induced Root Resorption in Beagle Dogs
DownloadSpring 2015
A favourable tooth crown-to-root ratio is required for supporting the tooth, but also for withstanding occlusal forces. This ratio is adversely affected when the tooth root is shortened. Orthodontically induced tooth root resorption is an unwanted side effect of orthodontic tooth movement. In...

The Evaluation of Using in-Fibre Bragg Grating Sensors Within a Periodontal Ligament Space for Strain Measurement
DownloadSpring 2021
The Periodontal Ligament (PDL) is a soft connective tissue that anchors the tooth to the surrounding alveolar bone, forming a tooth-PDL-bone complex (TPBC). The PDL demonstrates nonlinear, viscoelastic, anisotropic, and heterogeneous mechanical material properties that facilitate in protection...
