These interruptions are usually areas of hypomineralization in enamel and dentin which are referred to as <jats:italic>Striae of Retzius<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Hunter Shreger bands<\/jats:italic> in the enamel or <jats:italic>Incremental Lines of von Ebner<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Contour Lines of Owen<\/jats:italic> in the case of the dentin. The frequency of occurrence of these variations in mineralization can be related to such factors as growth tempo, dietary quality, state of health, and past disease episodes. Another structure that appears in the dentin is a region that fails to calcify and is referred to as <jats:italic>Inter\u2010globular Dentin<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Our studies have shown that the microstructural quality of different species' dentition varies widely. Samples obtained from certain free\u2010ranging cercopithecoids show that these species have the least hypomineralizations while man has the most. Other primate species range between these two extremes with the pongids nearer to man in these characteristics, as previously noted by Sognnaes. Additionally, our initial study shows a great deal of diversity between prehistoric human populations in the microstructural quality of their teeth. We offer the tentative explanation that this variation is due to differences in the calcifying properties of the diet and hence a difference in the general state of their health.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330430103","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,2,3]],"date-time":"2006-02-03T18:20:04Z","timestamp":1138990804000},"page":"3-17","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":51,"title":["Mineral metabolism and microstructural defects in primate teeth"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Stephen","family":"Molnar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steven C.","family":"Ward","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,5,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","first-page":"551","volume-title":"Diseases in Antiquity","author":"Alexandersen V.","year":"1967"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","first-page":"467","volume-title":"Structural and Chemical Organization of the Teeth","author":"Allan J.
