Abstract Purpose: To develop 3D anatomical models, and corresponding radiographs, of canine jaw fractures. Methods: A base model was generated from a mandibular bone scan. With this model it was possible to perform fracture planning according to the anatomical location. Results: The 3D base model of the canine mandible was similar in conformation to the natural bone, demonstrating structures such as canine tooth crowns, premolars and molars, mental foramina, body of the mandible, ramus of the mandible, masseteric fossa, the coronoid process, condylar process, and angular process. It was not possible to obtain detail of the crown of the incisor teeth, mandibular symphysis, and the medullary channel. Production of the 3D CJF model took 10.6 h, used 150.1 g of filament (ABS) and cost US$5.83. Conclusion: The 3D canine jaw fractures models, which reproduced natural canine jaw fractures, and their respective radiographic images, are a possible source of educational material for the teaching of veterinary medicine.

Simple Summary: The small size of the feline mandible makes its manipulation difficult when fixing dislocations of the temporomandibular joint or mandibular fractures. In both cases, non-invasive techniques should be considered first. When not possible, fracture repair with internal fixation using bone plates would be the best option. Simple jaw fractures should be repaired first, and caudal to rostral. In addition, a ventral approach makes the bone fragments exposure and its manipulation easier. However, the cat mandible has little space to safely place the bone plate screws without damaging the tooth roots and/or the mandibular blood and nervous supply. As a consequence, we propose a conceptual model of a mandibular prosthesis that would provide biomechanical Citation: Lombardero, M.; stabilization, avoiding any unintended (iatrogenic) damage to those structures.

CROMPTON2 1Department of Anthropology, George Washington University, Washington, DC 20052, and Human Origins Program, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC 20560 2Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 KEY WORDS symphysis; mammals; primates; electromyograms; mandible; mastication ABSTRACT Fused symphyses, which evolved independently in several mammalian taxa, including anthropoids, are stiffer and stronger than un- fused symphyses. This paper tests the hypothesis that orientations of tooth movements during occlusion are the primary basis for variations in symph- yseal fusion. Mammals whose teeth have primarily dorsally oriented occlusal trajectories and/or rotate their mandibles during occlusion will not benefit from symphyseal fusion because it prevents independent mandibular move- ments and because unfused symphyses transfer dorsally oriented forces with equal efficiency; mammals with predominantly transverse power strokes are predicted to benefit from symphyseal fusion or greatly restricted mediolateral movement at the symphysis in order to increase force transfer efficiency across the symphysis in the transverse plane. These hypotheses are tested with comparative data on symphyseal and occlusal morphology in several mammals, and with kinematic and EMG analyses of mastication in opossums (Didelphis virginiana) and

Its size and shape play an important role from the esthetic perspective. However, disagreement exists in the dental and anthropological literature regarding the sex differences in chin and symphysis morphometrics. The “sexual selection” theory is presented as a possible reason for chin formation in our species; however, many other contradictory theories also exist.

Head & Face Medicine (2021) 17:26 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13005-021-00282-2 RESEARCH Open Access Bone quality and quantity of the mandibular symphyseal region in autogenous bone grafting using cone- beam computed tomography: a cross- sectional study Yaser Safi1, Reza Amid2, Mahdi Kadkhodazadeh2, Hamed Mortazavi3, Mohamad Payam Sharifi4 and Shiva Gandomi1* Abstract Background: Bone volume plays a pivotal role in the success of dental implant treatment. Autogenous bone grafts should be harvested from reliable sites in the maxillofacial region. This study sought to assess the quantity and quality of bone in the mandibular symphysis for autogenous bone graft harvesting using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: This cross-sectional study evaluated the CBCT scans of 78 adults presenting to three oral and maxillofacial radiology centers. The vertical (VD) and horizontal (HD) alveolar bone dimensions, cortical thickness (CT), and cancellous to cortical bone ratio (C/C) were measured in the interforaminal region of the mandible at the sites of central incisor to first premolar teeth. The interforaminal distance (ID) and the anterior loop length were also measured. Nonparametric statistical tests were used to analyze the data with respect to sex, age, and tooth position. Results: The median VD, HD, and CT of the symphysis were 20.21 (3.26), 4.13 (0.37), and 2.25 (0.23) mm, respectively. The median C/C was 1.51 (0.11). The median ID was 52.24 (8.24) mm, and the median anterior loop length was 1.82 (1.06) mm. Significant differences were observed in all parameters among different teeth.

KNIGGE IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DR. KIERAN P. MCNULTY December 2017 @ Ryan P. Knigge 2017 Acknowledgements First, I am deeply indebted to my advisor and mentor, Kieran McNulty, for many years of patience and support. He opened my eyes to exciting and innovative areas of scientific research and has challenged me to become a better student of anthropology, biology, and statistical practices. I am also particularly grateful for my committee members, Martha Tappen, Michael Wilson, and Alan Love, for so many interesting discussions and insights over the years. I thank the Department of Anthropology and my many friends and colleagues within for years of emotional and academic support. Many data collection and field work trips were funded through department block grants. Surely without these contributions, I would not have been able to succeed as a graduate student. I would like thank the previous and current managers of the Evolutionary Anthropology Labs at the University of Minnesota, John Soderberg and Matt Edling, for access to the collections and technical support. Without their help and generosity, data collection and analysis would not have been possible. I thank the University of Minnesota for supporting my research in many ways during my graduate school career. Portions of my data collection were funded through the University of Minnesota Graduate School Thesis Research Travel Grant. Dissertation writing support was provided through the Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship.

ISBN: 978-0-615-64912-2 Preface The surgical care of trauma to the face, head, and neck that is an integral part of the modern practice of otolaryngology–head and neck surgery has its origins in the early formation of the specialty over 100 years ago. Initially a combined specialty of eye, ear, nose, and throat (EENT), these early practitioners began to understand the inter-rela- tions between neurological, osseous, and vascular pathology due to traumatic injuries. It also was very helpful to be able to treat eye as well as facial and neck trauma at that time. Over the past century technological advances have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of trauma to the face, head, and neck—angio- graphy, operating microscope, sophisticated bone drills, endoscopy, safer anesthesia, engineered instrumentation, and reconstructive materials, to name a few. As a resident physician in this specialty, you are aided in the care of trauma patients by these advances, for which we owe a great deal to our colleagues who have preceded us. Additionally, it has only been in the last 30–40 years that the separation of ophthal- mology and otolaryngology has become complete, although there remains a strong tradition of clinical collegiality.

    Skull_Skeleton_Lab3.doc 09/15/09 page 1 of 48 Laboratory 1 Worksheet: The Skull Objective: Learn about the mammalian skull, and be able to define and/or identify on a specimen all underlined terms. Assignment: Turn in two photos/drawings of a skull with bones and structures labeled. Use a skull of a coyote (Canis latrans) or red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and identify the following bones and other features. Canids have a fairly "primitive" skull large enough to identify different bones. For comparative purposes other skulls are shown in the figures to illustrate differences among groups or features missing from the canid skull. After identifying features on a canid skull, you should be able to find the same bones or features on skulls of other mammals. Main features of mammal skulls are the zygomatic arches (the bars on both sides of the skull) under which the jaw muscles reach from the lower jaw to the back of the head, a secondary palate that separates the mouth from the nasal passages, and a mandible (lower jaw) consisting of a single dentary bone on the left and right sides. Cranium The cranium is divided into two regions: braincase and rostrum. The braincase, more developed in mammals than in other vertebrates, contains the brain. The rostrum corresponds to the snout or muzzle. Dorsal aspect of the cranium.—Bones seen from a dorsal aspect on a canid skull are shown in Fig. 3. The nasal bones are paired bones forming a “roof” over the nasal passages. The paired premaxillary bones form the lower margin of the nasal openings (nares) and the anteriormost part of the bony palate at the anterior upper jaw.

Kainulainen, DDS1/George K. B. Sàndor, DDS, MD2/Kyösti S. Oikarinen, DDS, PhD3/ Cameron M. L. Clokie, DDS, PhD4 This article describes a procedure to harvest bone from the zygoma for alveolar bone reconstruction. A detailed description of the bone harvesting procedure and a preliminary report of 3 patients undergo- ing alveolar bone reconstruction and simultaneous dental implant placement in the maxillary anterior area is presented. The technique is indicated when a modest amount of bone is needed, for example, to cover exposed implant threads and expand a narrow alveolar ridge. It also could be used as an addi- tional source of bone with other intraoral donor sites. Surgical access to the zygoma is simple and can be performed using local anesthesia. Postoperative complications after zygomatic bone harvest are minimal.
