Molar pulp volume

Dental wear decreases molar pulp volume in cynomolgus monkeys (p < 0.001, R2 = 0.890).

“wear is more strongly correlated with decreasing pulp volume”

Age decreases molar pulp volume in cynomolgus monkeys (p = 0.004, R2 = 0.546).

“Both variables have a significant negative relationship with pulp volume (age: p = 0.004, R2 = 0.546; wear: p < 0.001, R2 = 0.890).”
