DENTIN BOOK Flashcards
Arises during the initial phase of dentinogenesis
Mantle dentin
Outer thin layer of dentin
INITIAL DENTIN FORMED
150mm thick
running parallel with dej
Mantle dentin
Consists of thick collagen alpha fibrils
Mantle dentin
Surrounds the pulp
Circumpulpal dentin
Bulk of dentin mass between mantle and pulpal space
Circumpulpal dentin
Consists of beta fibrils
Circumpulpal dentin
Represents the continuing but much slower deposition of dentin by odontoblasts AFTER ROOT FORMATION has been completed
Secondary dentin
Changes in pulp space
Pulp recession
Changes from primary to secondary marked by abrupt changes in tubular pattern. This line of directional change is called
Schregers line
Result of defensive activitiesof the pulp dentin complex
Tertiary dentin
Dentin may have vascular inclusion
Vasodentin
Dentin may appear similar to bone
Osteodentin
Tertiary dentin is only found in the
Dentin pulp interface
Unmineralized dentin matrix that lines INNERMOST portion of dentin
Predentin
Impt in maintaining the integrity of dentin bec when absent dentin is vulnerable to RESORPTION BY ODONTOClast
