Known reproductive histories of female radio-collared black bears (Ursus americanus) in Minnesota were matched against the spacing of growth layers in stained thin sections of their teeth. Light-staining bands of cementum, deposited during the summer months, were relatively narrow during years when females were raising cubs. Because females in this study never successfully reared cubs in 2 consecutive years, narrow light bands were bordered by wider bands, causing the intervening dark-staining fall–winter annuli to appear paired. Adult males exhibited similar pairing of dark annuli, caused not by altered annular spacing but by deposition of distinct summer accessory lines. Paired dark annuli in females accurately reflected known cub-rearing records, although it was more difficult to determine the years of cub production (reading teeth from the outer annulus inward) than the ages of females when they produced cubs (counting annuli outward from the dentin–cementum interface). The distribution of ages of first reproduction gleaned from teeth of harvested females coincided with that of females with known reproductive histories, indicating that teeth currently collected from harvested black bears by management agencies across North America could provide reasonably good accounts of both present and past reproductive rates.

The cavy’s dentition can be shortly described as diphyodont, heterodont, and hypselodont. Histologically, each tooth consists of enamel formed of 4 layers of cells, which together form an apical bud, dentin formed by odontoblasts, and dental cementum. The facies lingualis of incisors is covered with classical acellular cementum, whereas a few circular islands of cementum pearls occur on facies labialis. There are 3 types of cementum in cheek teeth: acellular cementum, cementum pearls, and cartilage-like cementum. Constant tooth growth is ensured by an open pulp cavity within the apex. Periodontal ligaments that are part of the desmodontium are responsible for anchoring teeth in the alveolus.
