brachydont tooth consists of
crown, root, neck
crown encased in
enamel
root encased in
cementum
neck
junction between root and crown
dentin (primary dentin)
deep to enamel; provides the greater structure of the tooth;
secondary dentin
produced and laid down to protect pulp cavity
pulp cavity
vascularized conective tissue with nerves and lymphatic vessels
tooth is attached to alveolus by
periodontal ligament connecting cementum of the tooth to alveolar bone
hypsodont tooth has an extensive crown
coronal portion and reserve crown
coronal portion
exposed crown
reserve crown
unexpected crown
enamel
covers crown; invaginates into tooth to form infundibulum
cementum in hypsodont tooth
covers external surface of tooth and fills some of infundibulum
infundibulum of equine incisors
invagination of enamel extending from occlusal surface into body of the tooth; partially filled with cementum
cup
bowl-shaped central depression on occlusal surface of the incisors
