#DidYouKnow if you were to rub a shark from its head towards its tail, it would feel relatively smooth. However, if you rubbed a shark from its tail towards its head, it would feel incredibly rough and coarse - like sandpaper! Shark skin is covered by tiny flat V-shaped scales, called dermal denticles, that are more like teeth than fish scales. These denticles decrease drag and turbulence, allowing the shark to swim faster and more quietly. Find out more by diving into the newest #SharkWeek: The

Shark skin is covered in tiny, flat pointed scales that are called dermal denticles—which literally means skin teeth. If you look at a shark’s skin under a microscope, you’ll see that the scales are a series of overlapping teeth that result in a rough texture. These pointed scales reduce drag on sharks as they swim, making them stealthy and fast as they cut through the water. This jagged t

What are denticles and how do they affect endodontic treatment? A denticle, also known as a pulp stone, is a tooth-like structure that forms within the pulp of a tooth. These formations can pose significant challenges in endodontic treatment, especially when it comes to root canal therapy. Denticles can obstruct the root canal system, making it challenging for endodontists to access and properly clean the pulp chamber. 🔬 Learn more about denticles and other diseases with VOKA 3D Anatomy & Patho

Dermal denticles are an extremely effective adaptation that provide so many benefits to sharks. Dermal denticles give a thicker layer of protection to sharks, making it harder for predators to bite through their skin. Additionally, the shape of the denticles will deter microorganisms from latching on to and building up on a shark's skin. Dermal denticles are so unique that they have inspired a lot of biomimicry from swimsuit designs to making boats faster. Shark skin was even used as sandpaper w
