Since teeth eruption follows a pattern, with the eruption of deciduous teeth occurring after birth to the end of infancy at the age of two, and permanent teeth erupting between the ages of five and fourteen, [7] observing which teeth are erupted and developing in a mandible, or whether a tooth is deciduous or permanent in isolated remains, can ...
Feline odontoclastic resorption lesion (FORL) is a syndrome in cats characterized by resorption of the tooth by odontoclasts, cells similar to osteoclasts. FORL has also been called Feline tooth resorption ( TR ), neck lesion , cervical neck lesion , cervical line erosion , feline subgingival resorptive lesion , feline caries , or feline cavity .
Non-eruption of non-ankylosed teeth occurs due to an eruption mechanism that has failed leading to a posterior unilateral/bilateral open bite. [28] Infra occlusion is the primary hallmark of PFE. Primary teeth are most commonly affected and normally all teeth distal to the most mesially affected tooth will show characteristics of this disease.
Smilodon started developing its adult saber-teeth when the animal reached between 12 and 19 months of age, shortly after the completion of the eruption of the cat's baby teeth. Both baby and adult canines would be present side by side in the mouth for an approximately 11-month period, and the muscles used in making the powerful bite were ...
Xenosmilus is in the tribe Homotherini in the subfamily Machairodontinae of the cat family. [1] A paper published in 2022 proposed that Xenosmilus is a more derived member of the tribe Machairodontini (another name for Homotherini), and that Homotherium venezuelensis should be reassigned to Xenosmilus, [11] with a 2024 paper arguing that remains from Uruguay should also be assigned to the ...
Nimravidae is an extinct family of carnivorans, sometimes known as false saber-toothed cats, whose fossils are found in North America and Eurasia. Not considered to belong to the true cats (family Felidae ), the nimravids are generally considered closely related and classified as a distinct family in the suborder Feliformia .

The formative role of the dental follicle starts when the crown of the tooth is fully developed and just before tooth eruption into the oral cavity. [2]Although tooth eruption mechanisms have yet to be understood entirely, generally it can be agreed that many factors, together, affect the tooth eruption process which is why it is very difficult to differentiate the causes and effects.
