Ectopic eruption is a concept including those clinical cases in which teeth show abnormal eruption pattern and erupt ectopically, in an incorrect position. This abnormality has been pointed out in the literature for the fi rst permanent molars, mainly the maxillary ones. There is no specifi c etiological factor for this abnormality in the fi rst permanent molar, but different factors are report...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) vs simply monitoring the eruption of permanent maxillary incisors following the surgical removal of obstacles to their eruption (supernumerary teeth, odontomas). METHODS Following surgical removal of the obstacles to incisor eruption (T1), 62 patients were randomly assigned to either the group...

Following the installation of the Ocean Observatories Initiative cabled array, the 2015 eruption of Axial Seamount, Juan de Fuca ridge, became the first submarine eruption to be captured in real time by seafloor seismic and acoustic instruments. This eruption also marked the first instance where the entire eruption cycle of a submarine volcano, from the previous eruption in 2011 to the end of t...

In ungulates, a set of deciduous teeth is replaced by a set of permanent teeth during their first 2 years of life. Little is known about factors causing variation in timing of tooth eruption, but overall size, condition or mineral deficiencies may play a role. The pattern of incisor (I) and canine (C) eruption was investigated in 2241 yearlings from five populations of red deer Cervus elaphus i...

Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) techniques are used to calculate the volume of eruption at Okmok volcano, Alaska by constructing precise digital elevation models (DEMs) that represent volcano topography before and after the eruption. The pre-eruption DEM is generated using TOPSAR data where a three-dimensional multiaffined transformation is used to account for the misalignments...

Life history variables (LHV) in primates are closely correlated with the ages of tooth eruption, which are a useful proxy to predict growth and development in extant and extinct species. However, it is not known how tooth eruption ages interact with LHV in polymorphic species such as modern humans. African pygmies are at the one extreme in the range of human size variation. LHV in the Baka pygm...

Abstract The 2014–2015 CE rift event associated with the Bárðarbunga eruption at Holuhraun, Iceland, offers a unique opportunity to study spatial and temporal evolution of graben. We present first four-dimensional (three-dimensional plus time) monitoring formation graben during active magma transport using suite digital elevation models spanning from shortly before throughout 6 months up 4.5 ye...

objective: the present study assessed the association of size, axial angulation, developmental stage and bud position of the mandibular third molar with the second molar impaction in patients with mandibular second molar impaction. methods: in this descriptive-analytical study (case-control design), dental records of 5,420 patients in the age range of 12-15 years who underwent orthodontic treat...

Abstract In this paper, we present multiwavelength observations of the triggering a failed-eruptive M-class flare from active region NOAA 11302 and investigate possible reasons for associated failed eruption. Photospheric nonlinear force-free field extrapolated coronal magnetic revealed that flaring had complex quadrupolar configuration with preexisting nullpoint situated above core field. Prio...

The style and evolution of volcanic eruptions are dictated by the fluid mechanics governing magma ascent. Decompression during ascent causes dissolved volatile species, such as water and carbon dioxide, to exsolve from the melt to form bubbles, thus providing a driving force for the eruption. Ascent is influenced not only by the nucleation and growth of gas bubbles, but also magma rheology and ...
