Dental anatomy is a field of anatomy dedicated to the study of human tooth structures. The development, appearance, and classification of teeth fall within its purview. (The function of teeth as they contact one another falls elsewhere, under dental occlusion.) Tooth formation begins before birth, and the teeth's eventual morphology is dictated ...

Dog anatomy. Dog anatomy comprises the anatomical study of the visible parts of the body of a domestic dog. Details of structures vary tremendously from breed to breed, more than in any other animal species, wild or domesticated, [ 1 ] as dogs are highly variable in height and weight.
Canines really are amazing creatures and there is a bundle of interesting dog facts to prove it. From being able to pick up scents from 12 miles away and using sneezing as a form of communication, ...
Torus mandibularis. Torus mandibularis is a bony growth in the mandible along the surface nearest to the tongue. Mandibular tori usually are present near the premolars and above the location on the mandible of the mylohyoid muscle attachment. [1] In 90% of cases, a torus is on both inner sides of the mandible (left and right); however, they may ...
