摘要
A technique of reducing the size of fully erupted canine teeth in male M. mulatta has been used to prevent these teeth from inflicting penetrating wounds on other animals during evoked fighting. Partial pulpotomy in combination with amalgam capping appears to be preferable to simple grinding and exposure. No alimentary or social changes were noted in 7 males subjected to this procedure. © 1969.
