DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpp.2017.10.004
Abstract: Dental root fractures are rarely documented in past human populations, but when they are observed, diagnosing ante-mortem events as causal factors can be difficult due to postmortem alteration. Can high resolution X-ray computed tomography (CT)… read more here.
