|
How does the size of the pulp cavity vary with age?
|
It is larger when you are younger. As you age dentin continues to form since odontoblasts are left behind and more collagen becomes present
|
|
What is the primary purpose of the pulp?
|
to create dentin
|
|
Which stage is the most critical in odontogenesis?
|
Lamina
- initiation stage - eventually forms periosteum and ectomesenchyme |
|
During which stage is odontogenesis do tooth forms begin?
|
Bud stage goes to cap stage and tooth forms appear
these are morphogenesis stages (with the beg of bell stage) |
|
What gives rise to the pulp and alveolar bone respectively?
|
dental papilla - pulp
dental sac- bone |
|
Most abundant cells of the pulp?
|
fibroblasts
|
|
How does the pulp communicate with the surrounding tissues?
|
Through the apical foramen and accessory canals
|
|
What cells in the pulp play an important role in immunosuveillance?
|
dendritic cells
- they recognize antigens and present them to macrophages which engulf and present them to lymphocytes |
|
What type of collagen fibers are in the pulp and dentin?
|
Type I and III are in the pulp produced by fibroblasts
Type I is in dentin produced by odontoblasts |
|
What are the most common abundant nerve fibers in the pulp?
|
A delta fibers and C fibers
