Severe enamel defects in wild Japanese macaques

2023-05-19

Abstract excerpt

Plane-form enamel hypoplasia (PFEH) is a severe dental defect in which large areas of the crown are devoid of enamel. This condition is rare in humans and rarer in wild primates. The etiology of PFEH has been linked to exposure to severe disease, malnutrition, environmental toxins, and other systemic conditions. Similar defects have also been associated with genetic conditions such as amelogenesis imperfecta. In t...
