Testing the reliability of CT scan-based dental wear magnitude scoring.

Published in: American journal of physical anthropology (2021)

Our results generally validate the use of CT scans in studies of dental wear magnitude. Notwithstanding several caveats relating to CT scanning and visualization limitations should be considered to avoid over or under-estimation of dental wear.
