Histology Pt.3
Dentine
70% inorganic (hydoxyapatite), 20% organic (type I collagen) + Ground substance (GAGs, glyco, proteo), water 10%
Physical Properties
-
-
Thickest at apex/cusps, thinnest at apexes
Vital: sensitive to thermo sensitive, percieved as pain and therfire has a regentitive capacity
Collagen fibers are embedded in the ground substance, fibers are parallel to the pulpal surface
Dentine features
Dentine Tubules
Functional unit, radial extension from pulp to DEJ and CEJ
-

-

-
Types of dentine
Primary Dentine
-
mantle dentine (first, thin) - less minerlaised than circumpulpal
-
-
Sclerotic Dentine
Loss of processes, just intertubular dentine
-
Dentine Hypersensitivity
Hydrodynamic Theory
Disturbances in the dentinal fluid cause turbulence which is picked up closely asso. nerve endings and periced as pain
Enamel
Comprised of: 95% Mineral, 1% organic, 4% (by weight)
-
-
-
Features of Enamel
Striae of Retzius
Incremental lines, or concentric lines
Neo-natal lines, refelct the stress during birth
-
-
DEJ
-
Enamel Tufts
Due to abrubt changes to enamel secretion, usually reulting in higher conc. of tuftelin in the enamel (hypo-mineralised)
Enamel Spindle
odontoblast process are trapped into the enamel (dark), usually near the cusps of teeth
-
-
-
-
Cementum
General principles
Thin hard, and avascular calcifed tissue covering the dentine of the root
-
Thickest at the apex, thinnest at teh CEJ
-
-
-
-
Properties
-
65% inorganic and 23% orgnaic, and 12% water
Organic = Type 1 collagen fibers (90%) and also Type 3 and 12 collagen, ground substance (inlc cementum attachment protein)
-
Cells of Cementum
-
-
-
Cementogenesis
-
AEFC follows second
Cementoblasts stop secereting collagen and focus on forming matric proteins to anchor the fibers from the Periodontal fibroblats = Sharpey's Fibers
-
CIDF and AEFC may be mised up due to things like orthodontic tooth movement due to rapid formation to adjust new tooth positions
Histological Features
-
Resportion and Repair
Resportion fd cementum or root dentine due to trauma (traumatic occlusion, movement, hypereruption)
-
Clinical Considerations
Cementum is less suseptible to resorption than bone under the same pressure (due to avascularity) allows for orthodontic tooth movement
Stop 0.5mm to 1.5mm from apex for RCT as cementum blocks tubules in this area and allows for better apical seal
Roof fractures repair by cementum callus, not by remodelling as seen in dentine
-
-
Pulp
Functions
-
-
- Creates new dentine ie tertiary dentine
- Sensation function with hydro dynm theory
- Induces the formation of ameloblasts and enamel
Structure
Odontoblast Layer
-
Odontoblasts liver here
Nb: secretory odontoblatss are tall columar epithelial cells, with golgi, eER, and mictochondria capable of secretion
Sub-odontoblast layer
Cell-free-zone of Weil = fenestrated vessels of the subodontoblastic (Raschkow) plexus, and von-korff fibers
Cell-rich zone = undiff. mesenchymal cells, fibroblasts, mO, lymphyocytes
Central pulpal area
-
Ab, Ad and C fibers responsible for dull aching, burning, and sharp/shooting pains
