22
Q

What is primarily found in Peritubular dentin

A

Mostly apatite crystals

23
Q

Intertubular dentin

A

Dentin found between the tubules

24
Q

Primary Dentin

A

Dentin formed by odontoblasts BEFORE tooth eruption

25

Secondary Dentin

A

Dentin formed by odontoblasts AFTER tooth eruption

26
Q

Tertiary Dentin

A

Reparative dentin, forms in response to trauma

27
Q

Transparent Dentin

A

Type of tertiary dentin, characterized by the tubules being occluded w/ mineral

Q

Smear layer

A

A collective term for any debris left on tooth after tooth preperation

29
Q

Why is it important to remove the smear layer and what do we use to remove it?
