“…Either a flexible tooth embedment in radular membrane allows the spreading of teeth to the sides 37,41,53,54 and/or a softer cushioning beneath the membrane, the odontophoral cartilages, allows the swerving in dorsal direction when teeth hit larger asperities 4,6,37,[55][56][57][58] . Similar mechanisms have been observed for the anchorage of mammalian teeth 59,60 .…”

“…The buccal mass muscles serve as a shock absorber or cushion element, when teeth interact with an obstacle, which can also be observed in the binocular microscope when manipulating the specimens' buccal mass muscle. This mechanism is similar to the anchorage in mammalian teeth [96,97]. The adjustable radular membrane that is made of stiffer, not extensible material keeps the teeth in place, but simultaneously allows a sliding of teeth into place and adjustment of teeth to all kinds of target surface, when the buccal mass muscles are manipulated.…”

“…Our findings suggest that diet explains relatively little of the variation seen in TRSA for most lineages. The space between the root and alveolar volumes may better reflect dietary signals, as the thickness and distribution of the periodontal ligament play important roles in preventing the tooth from crushing into the alveolar bone (Bemmann et al, 2021). A thicker periodontal ligament and, therefore, larger distance between root and alveolus, could potentially resist higher‐magnitude forces, better cushioning the tooth and resisting displacement.…”
