2022, Archives of Oral BiologyCitation Excerpt :Radiographic studies of tooth development in great apes have provided further information about the sequence of crown and root formation stages both prior to and after gingival emergence (Anemone et al., 1991; Boughner et al., 2012; Boughner et al., 2015; Dean & Wood, 1981; Winkler et al., 1991) and when the chronological age of individuals has been known it has been possible to put a time scale to radiographically defined stages of tooth development in great apes (Anemone et al., 1996; Kralick et al., 2017; Kuykendall, 1996). Besides these radiographic studies, histological studies have provided yet more evidence for the chronology of crown and root formation stages in developing great ape dentitions (Beynon et al., 1991; Dean, 2010; Kelley & Schwartz, 2010; Reid et al., 1998; Schwartz & Dean, 2001; Schwartz et al., 2006; Smith, 2016; Smith et al., 2007). An unresolved issue arising from radiographic and histological comparisons of modern human and great ape dentitions is to what degree there is overlap in the development of M1 and M2 crown formation and of M2 and M3 crown formation and whether this relates simply to differential tooth size, space in the jaws and/or jaw growth (Boughner & Dean, 2004; Simpson et al., 1992; Tompkins, 1996a, 1996b).
Distinguishing primate taxa with enamel incremental variables
2022, Journal of Human EvolutionCitation Excerpt :Counts of Retzius lines and their periodicity can be used to determine the duration of imbricational enamel growth (Reid et al., 1998a). The duration of cuspal enamel growth can be quantified by dividing the enamel thickness by the mean cuspal DSR (Reid et al., 1998a; Smith, 2008), and the time taken to form the cuspal enamel can be combined with the imbricational enamel to estimate the duration of cusp-specific formation (e.g., protoconid, metaconid). The timing of initiation, duration, and crown completion differ across cusps, therefore calculating time for each cusp is necessary (Smith et al., 2007a; Antoine et al., 2009).
