Teeth have a very significant place in paleoanthropology. Their number is one of the keys of the primate taxonomy and classification. They have been used for systematics, phylogeny, paleobiology, or paleoenvironment. Some examples are given on the use of dental formula, morphology, wear or microwear, and biogeochemistry in paleoanthopologic studies.
牙齿在古人类学中占有非常重要的地位。它们的数量是灵长类分类学和分类的关键之一。它们已被用于系统学、系统发育学、古生物学或古环境研究。文中给出了一些在古人类学研究中使用齿式、形态学、磨损或微磨损以及生物地球化学的例子。
