     Part of the upper jaw of Microsyops latidens has two caries


    Keegan Selig and Mary Silcox infer the age of these fossils by comparing the location of these fossils in the sedimentary strata of the southern Great Horn Basin
    .


    Researchers can date fossils based on the geological age of the deposits where they were found


    The authors also found that the incidence of dental caries in Microsyops latidens fossils is higher than that reported in existing primate studies
    .


    Only Capuchin monkeys (such as Capuchin monkeys) and Tamarix (such as marmosets) have a higher incidence of dental caries than Microsyops latidens
