1 Tori, Torus, Exostoses Brian Palmer, D.D.S. Leawood, Kansas USA December

2 Tori: Non-pathologic outgrowth of bone. I believe this is one way bone responds to stresses applied to it. Is it due to ionization? 2

3 Hypothesis Tori are very common in today s population (2004). I believe they are a result of stresses on the bone and are mainly found on nervous, anxious and driver-type personalities. The significant increase in the number and size of tori seen today as compared to prehistoric times are the result of society stresses. Tori, I believe, will not be found in prehistoric skulls in the frequency or size of today s tori. Prehistoric man had stresses, but their stresses were the result of survival, not of society stresses. Difference will be in frequency (can be seen on a daily basis in dental offices today) and size (massive today not as massive in prehistoric times). 3

4 Tori May be genetically linked % of people have them. Females more affected. Mendelian Dominate. Evidence of what causes them is lacking % of children of parents who had them, will have them. (Source unknown) 4

5 Frequency of Occurrence of Toru Palatinus Origin Frequency Investigator (Year) Koreans 90% Osima (1939) Japanese 73% Sakaguchi (1939) Eskimos/Laplanders 60% Schreiner (1935) Venezuelans 24% Luzardo (1958) Americans White 21% Kolas (1953) Black 19% Austin (1965) Chileans.37% Witkop (1963) 5 Compendium of Continuing Education, Year and issue unknown.
