Dental enamel is the hardest and most mineralized tissue in extinct and extant vertebrate
species and provides maximum durability that allows teeth to function as weapons and/or …

Biomineralization of enamel, dentin, and bone involves the deposition of apatite mineral
crystals within an organic matrix. Bone and teeth are classic examples of biomaterials with …

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) represents a group of developmental conditions, genomic in
origin, which affect the structure and clinical appearance of enamel of all or nearly all the …

This review focuses on recent discoveries and delves in detail about what is known about
each of the proteins (amelogenin, ameloblastin, and enamelin) and proteinases (matrix …

Dental anomalies are caused by complex interactions between genetic, epigenetic and
environmental factors during the long process of dental development. This process is …

Enamel is a hard nanocomposite bioceramic with significant resilience that protects the
mammalian tooth from external physical and chemical damages. The remarkable …

Objective We previously reported that a rationally designed biomimetic self-assembling
peptide, P11− 4, nucleated hydroxyapatite de novo and was apparently capable of in situ …

Abstract Store-operated Ca 2+ entry (SOCE) is an important Ca 2+ influx pathway in many
non-excitable and some excitable cells. It is regulated by the filling state of intracellular Ca …

The genetic control of dental development represents a complex series of events, which can
very schematically be divided in two pathways: specification of type, size and position of …
