My current research is based on dental morphometrics, hence I need this ASUDAS plaques as reference to standardize my samples.
Not sure where Peter came up with France casting. To this date, they have been produced and distributed by Dept. of Anthropology at Arizona State University. They are now out of the game. In the near future, they are going to be produced and distributed by Bone Clones. They will be marketed as the Turner-Scott system. Long story on switch but that was not my idea. However, I have seen mock ups and the plaques Bone Clones will produce are far superior to plaster models generated at ASU. Not sure on exact release date. I have to fine tune a couple of plaques (e.g., hypocone) but I hope that will not slow things down. Hope that helps. Richard Scott
Thanks Dr.Scott. Please let me know as and when the Turner-scott system comes to market. I am working on the cusp and groove pattern variations in lower second premolars. Hence I'm in need of a standard guide.
We are working on the ASU dental plaques under the guidance of Dr. Richard Scott and Dr. Chris Stojanowski to produce the Turner-Scott system (formally the ASUDAS). We anticipate the release of the plaques by the end of 2017. Please let me know if anyone has any further questions.
