Human Life History Evolution Explains Dissociation between the Timing of Tooth Eruption and Peak Rates of Root Growth
Figure 4
Tooth growth curves for Pan troglodytes and modern Homo sapiens.
Reconstructed growth curves for tooth length. Length in μm (left y axis) is plotted against age in years (x axis) for each tooth type. Average ages for the start of tooth mineralisation were used for each tooth type [6].
