What's the difference between dentary and jawbone?

Dentary


Definition:

  • (a.) Pertaining to, or bearing, teeth.

  • (14) These stresses are: (1) dorsoventral shear of the symphysis due to the transfer of force from balancing to chewing sides, (2) bending of the symphysis causing tension along the inferior and compression along superior borders due to torsion on the dentaries from the jaw closing muscles, and (3) antero-posterior shear of the symphysis due to an anteriorly directed stress on the chewing side.
  • (15) As hyaline-cell cartilage is densely cellular and as that attached to the dentary, maxilla and cleithrum develops from the periosteum of these membrane bones, it must be regarded as secondary cartilage according to current concepts.
  • (16) Ultrathin sections of the nasal barbel of the channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, were studied in the electron microscope and the fine structure was compared to that of barbels of other teleosts and to the mandibular (dentary) barbels of I. punctatus.
  • (17) Although variability was not considered as is usual in clinical studies, in vitro evaluation as observed in this study allows a more accurate comparative analysis, since it was performed on one individual tooth, with analogous instrumentation and on dentary tissue with similar characteristics.

  • (19) The electrophoretic patterns of the proteins extracted from dentary, vertebra and scale with the phosphate buffer, 0.1 NHcl and SDS solution were studied to investigate their molecular aspects.
  • (20) The development of hyaline-cell cartilage attached to membrane (dentary, maxilla, nasal, lacrimal and cleithrum) and cartilage (basioccipital) bones has been studied in the viviparous black molly, Poecilia sphenops.

Jawbone


Definition:

  • (n.) The bone of either jaw; a maxilla or a mandible.

  • (7) Bone-appositioning inflammatory processes (condensing osteitis), on the other hand, appeared mostly in the mandible, very often involving the first molar, thus indicating the differing biologic behavior of the two jawbones.
  • (8) In Maxillo-facial surgery: for orbital floor, maxillary sinus and jawbone reconstruction.
