Study Notes
Dentin Formation
- Dentin formed after complete root formation is termed tertiary dentin.
- Dentin developed during tooth development is called primary dentin.
Changes in Pulp Cavity
- Regular secondary dentin formation leads to reduced size of the pulp cavity over time.
Line of Demarcation
- The line of demarcation between primary and secondary dentin occurs due to alterations in the deposition rate of dentin.
Dentinal Tubules
- In regular secondary dentin, dentinal tubules become less densely packed and may be more irregular compared to primary dentin.
Accelerating Factors
- Factors such as age, trauma, and external stimuli can accelerate the formation of regular secondary dentin.
