40
Q

How is the DEJ bound together?

A

-Merging of the Enamel HA and the dentin HA in ridges

41

42
Q

What is the first layer of dentin formed?

A

43
Q

What is the only part of dentin that is not tubular?

A

-Mantle Dentin

44
Q

What type of fibers are .1-.2 mm collagen III fibrils that are associated with fibronectin during dentin formation?

A

-Von Korff’s fibers

45
Q

Developing odontoblasts begin extending processes known as what?

A

-Tomes’ fibers

46
Q

Where do the tome’s fibers extend into?

A

-Developing matrix

47
Q

If the Mantle dentin penetrates the IEE what feature does that give?

A

-Enamel spindles

48
Q

What is the future odontoblast process?

A

-Tome’s fibers

49
Q

What does dentin start as when it is deposited?

A

-Non-mineralized organic matrix known as predentin

50
Q

Where does mineralization start for dentin?

A

-within the Odontoblasts secreted matrix vesicles

51
Q

What are the two types of dentin mineralization?

A
  • Globular

- Linear

52
Q

What happens to secreted matrix vesicles from dentin?

A

-They rupture and release mineralized matrix crystals

53
Q

What type of proteins regulate subsequent dentin formation that results in tubular primary dentin?

A

-Non-collagenous matrix proteins

54
Q

After the DEJ formation what type of dentin begins to form?

Q

What is the first dentin formed during development that comprises the mantle dentin and the initial deposition of circumpulpal dentin?

A

-Primary Dentin
