Study Notes

Dentin Structure

Dentin is a calcified tissue that makes up most of the tooth structure
It is composed of dentinal tubules, which are tiny tubes that transmit sensation to the pulp

Dental Pulp

The pulp chamber is a hollow space within the center of the tooth that contains the dental pulp
The main function of the dental pulp is to produce dentin and provide sensation to the tooth
The apical foramen is a small opening at the apex of the tooth root that allows nerves and blood vessels to enter the pulp chamber
The function of the apical foramen is to provide a pathway for nerves and blood vessels to enter the tooth
