Stage 1 Dentinogenesis
|
Lays down organic matrix (pre-dentin)
Thickest pre-dentin is formed at the beginning, near DEJ Formation always starts at the most coronal part |
|
Stage 2 Dentinogenesis
|
Mineralization of pre-dentin
Crystals get deposited along direction of collagen fibers |
|
What two proteins play a role in initiation of the mineralization process
|
Dentin Phosphophoryn Protein (DPP)
Dentin Sialoprotein (DSP) |
|
How does calcium come in and get deposited in dentin?
|
Ca++ diffuses from the bloodstream into the odontoblast, and then gets secreted out into the organic matrix
|
|
calcoglobule
|
Calficication piece by piece in an asterisk kind of way
|
|
Characteristics of Dentin
|
slightly yellow and darker in color than enamel
more raduiolucent than enamel more radiopaque than cementum A living tissue similar to bone HAP crystals are smaller than in enamel |
|
Dentin makeup
|
70% inorganic + 20% organic + 10% water
|
|
Primary dentin
|
makes up the bulk of the crown & root
Consists of Mantle, Circumpulpal, Interglobular, Tome's Granular Layer |
|
Mantle Dentin
|
thin, closest to the DEJ
does NOT contain the Phosphophoryn protein it’s less mineralized than Circumpulpal Dentin has branched Korff’s Reticular Fibers Has collagen fibers Stains with silver |
|
Which type of dentin does NOT contain the Phosphophoryn protein
|
Mantle Dentin
|
|
Which type of dentin stains with silver
|
Mantle Dentin
|
|
Circumpulpal Dentin
|
No Korff Fibers
Mostly collagen fibers contains the Phosphophoryn protein makes up most of Primary Dentin & all of Secondary Dentin |
|
Which type of dentin makes up all of secondary dentin
|
Circumpulpal dentin
|
|
Interglobular Dentin
|
Hypomineralized dentin
located in b/t Mantle & Circumpulpal dentin |
|
Tomes Granular Layer
|
hypomineralized, located near the CDJ and DEJ
When odontoblasts try to move into position towards DEJ, the odontoblastic process gets coiled up reducing amount of HAP present |
|
Secondary Regular Dentin
|
only gets deposited after primary dentin has finished completion of tooth formation
narrows the pulp chamber has fewer odontoblasts, fewer processes, fewer tubules when compared to primary dentin |
|
Which areas of the pulp chamber have greater amounts of Secondary Regular Dentin
|
Roof and floor and horns
Lateral walls have much less |
|
Primary dentinal tubules vs Secondary dentinal tubules
|
Wavy vs perpendicular to long axis of tooth
|
|
Secondary Irregular Dentin
|
AKA Tertiary Dentin
gets laid down at a local site only when there is a stimulus causes narrowing of the pulp forms very rapidly Includes Reactive and Reparative Dentin |
|
Reactive Dentin
|
Secondary Irregular Dentin
formed by pre-existing odontoblasts |
|
What dentin is formed by pre-existing odontoblasts
|
Reactive Dentin
|
|
Reparative Dentin
|
Secondary Irregular Dentin
formed by giving rise to NEW odontoblasts |
|
What dentin is formed by giving rise to NEW odontoblasts
|
Reparative Dentin
|
|
Osteodentin
|
When Secondary Irregular Dentin forms slowly
Resembles bone more regular in arrangement, less entrapment of cells |
|
Sclerotic / Transparent Dentin
|
pre-existing dentin
Modified by the addition by more HAP crystals see thru it like glass most mineralized resembles enamel Usually forms in roots of older people Offers protection |
|
Which type of dentin is the most mineralized?
|
Sclerotic Dentin
|
|
Where is the odontoblastic process widest?
|
Widest where it connects to the cell body
Tapers towards distal end |
|
Intertubular Dentin
|
makes up most of the dentin
has less fibers less mineralized |
|
Peritubular Dentin
|
makes up the outer wall of the dentinal tubule
more fibers more mineralized |
|
Intratubular Dentin
|
forms an organic sheath
surrounds the process within the inner wall of the dentinal tubule |
|
What type of dentin makes up the outer wall of the dentinal tubule
|
Peritubular Dentin
|
|
What type of dentin makes up the inner wall of the dentinal tubule
|
Intratubular Dentin
|
|
Contour Lines of Owen
|
equivalent to the Lines of Retzius in enamel
|
|
Neonatal Lines
|
transition between pre-natal and post-natal dentin
an exaggerated Contour Line of Owen |
|
Von Ebner Lines
|
equivalent to the Daily Incremental Lines in enamel
|
