    Abstract:

    The dentition of early hominids from Laetoli and Hadar provide evidence of "incisal stripping" and a shear-grinding action for C/P3 complex through microscopic examination of wear facets on dental crowns. This masticatory pattern of dental wear resembles that of Papio papio and suggests behavioral analogies between early hominids and Papio.

    Teeth

    The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
    In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...
