Fig. 4From: Clinical insights into the three-dimensional anatomy of cheek teeth in alpacas based on micro-computed tomography - Part 2: Maxillary cheek teethScatterplots of the mean sub-occlusal dentinal thickness (SODT) in function of dental age. Scatterplots of the mean sub-occlusal dentinal thickness (SODT) in function of dental age (days) for the different types of dentition. The interaction between fixed effects ‘Dental age’ and ‘Type of dentition’ is apparent. Mean SODT decreases over time with differing slopes dependent on type of dentition, and tested statistically significant at the level of the maxillary molars (P < 0.001). No statistical analyses have been performed for the premolar cheek teeth given the relatively small sample sizesBack to article page
