XXIV. On the presence of fibrils of soft tissue in the dentinal tubes

Author:

Abstract

The dental tissues, as parts of the human system, have received their full share of attention from anatomists. Papers have from time to time appeared upon this subject, each observer confirming- or correcting the views of his predecessor, or adding new facts to those already recorded, until this field of investigation seemed fairly exhausted, at all events of new matter. Histologists, I think, now agree that dentine is made up of series of tubes, which radiate from one or more cavities, situated within the interior of the tooth. In their way outwards the tubes branch freely, and connect themselves through their branches with each other; thereby establishing a network of communications throughout the whole substance of the dentine. The tubes on the one hand, after running their course, become lost in the anastomosing branches near the outer surface of what has been termed a dentinal system, on the other, terminate by open mouths on the inner surface of the system, or pulp-cavity. This cavity being occupied by an organ rich in blood-vessels, has led to the opinion generally entertained, that the tubes are canals for the conveyance of nutritive fluid.
