Radix entomolaris and radix paramolaris: A cone-beam computed tomography study of permanent mandibular molars in a large sample from Slovenia.

Objectives: To investigate the prevalence, unilateral/bilateral concurrency, and external morphology of permanent mandibular molars (PMMs) with radix entomolaris (RE) and radix paramolaris (RP) in a sample from Slovenia.

Design: Medium field-of-view cone-beam computed tomography images of 1315 participants (681 males, 634 females) aged 13-90 years (mean age 45.5) were retrospectively examined.

The Early Iron Age elite grave from the Kapiteljska njiva barrow cemetery (Novo mesto, Slovenia): an approach to dental profiling through non-invasive and minimally-invasive techniques.

Kapiteljska njiva is a prehistoric cemetery located in the town of Novo mesto in southern Slovenia. There is a long history of archaeological research at this site, as the first investigations date back to the end of the 19th century. In 2004, an Early Iron Age barrow XVI was investigated.

Morphometric analysis of three-rooted mandibular first molars in a Slovene population: a macroscopic and cone-beam computed tomography analysis.

Background: This study examined the root morphology of mandibular first molars (MFMs) with radix entomolaris (RE), which presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges for clinicians.

Materials And Methods: A total of 17 three-rooted MFMs were taken from a collection of extracted teeth. Root lengths and levels of furcations were measured with a digital calliper.

Dental ancestry estimation in a 1500 years old human skeleton from Slovenia using a new web-based application rASUDAS.

The present study was performed on a skeleton excavated from the Late Roman Period necropolis in Ptuj, Eastern Slovenia. Previous anthropological analysis has revealed that the skeleton belongs to a male, who died in his early twenties; however, determination of ancestry was problematic. The skull displays artificial cranial deformation of circular fronto-occipital type and shows some Asiatic anthroposcopic features.
