Variation of 3D outer and inner crown morphology in modern human mandibular premolars

Objectives This study explores the outer and inner crown of lower third and fourth premolars (P 3 , P 4 ) by analyzing the morphological variation among diverse modern human groups. Materials and Methods We studied three‐dimensional models of the outer enamel surface and the enamel–dentine junction (EDJ) from μCT datasets of 77 recent humans using both an assessment of seven nonmetric traits and a standard geometric morphometric (GM) analysis....
