Sentence examples for molar zone from inspiring English sources

Hard food eaters displayed a significant integration between the molar zone and the angular process.

All functional modules except the molar zone showed shape differences between HF and SF mice.

Exceptions to this were the molar zone and the angular process, both displaying very strong transgressive patterns.

The mandible was analysed as a whole, as alveolar + ramus region, and as five modules (incisor zone + molar zone + coronoid + condylar + angular processes).

Significant differences existed for other parts, but in different directions: the WLA were larger than the PWK for the molar zone and the coronoid process (P < 0.001).

This was still true for the anterior-most part (incisor zone, Figure 3d) but the pattern was drastically different for the molar zone.

Hard food eaters tend to display extended coronoid and angular processes, whereas the incisor and molar zones are expanded ventrally.

Recently, the widely used Eichner index, which classifies posterior occlusal support by occlusal contacts between maxillary and mandibular premolar and molar zones, has been validated for an elderly Japanese population with respect to chewing ability [ 16].

Regarding the further partition of the mandible into five modules, the variation in the alveolar region was highly related to the variation in its two subsets (incisor and molar zones).

Based on the functional and evolutionary evidence [ 31] a further partition, embedded in the first one, has been proposed composed of five modules: the anterior, incisor-bearing zone; the molar-bearing zone; and the three processes of the ramus, namely, in a top-down order the coronoid, condylar, and angular processes.

The WLA individuals were characterized by an anterior shift of the zone of the molar insertion, and a strong anterior shift of the ventral-most point of inflexion of the ventral border of the horizontal ramus (landmark 13).
