Advances in genetics, histology, microstructure, biomechanics, and morphometrics have allowed researchers to view teeth and dental tissue from new perspectives. Written by leading experts in the field, this book brings together overviews on a wide range of dental topics. The contributors discuss the latest research linking genes, molecules, and developmental mechanisms within an evolutionary framework. This book will stimulate cooperative research in fields as diverse as paleontology, molecular biology, developmental biology, and functional morphology.

Download Description:

Over the past 20 years, there has been an explosion of information generated by scientific research. One of the beneficiaries of this has been the study of morphology, where new techniques and analyses have led to insights into a wide range of topics. Advances in genetics, histology, microstructure, biomechanics and morphometrics have allowed researchers to view teeth from new perspectives. However, up to now there has been little communication between researchers in the different fields of dental research. This book brings together, for the first time, overviews on a wide range of dental topics linking genes, molecules and developmental mechanisms within an evolutionary framework. Written by the leading experts in the field, this book will stimulate co-operative research in fields as diverse as paleontology, molecular biology, developmental biology and functional morphology.
