Tooth structure
- A tooth has a crown and root(s) with a pulp chamber and root canal(s).
-Enamel, dentine, pulp tissue and cementum make up a tooth.
![Page 9: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Enamel
● Most highly mineralized tissue in the body ● 96% inorganic material.
● Non-vital, insensitive,
cannot be regenerated.

Ground Sections
![Page 11: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Decalcified Sections
![Page 12: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Histological Sections
![Page 13: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
● Dentine forms the bulk of the tooth.● It is rigid but elastic therefore ideal to support enamel.● It has a tubular structure● It is a vital, sensitive.● Capable of repair.● Formed throughout life.
Dentine
![Page 14: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Dentine
● Primary dentine
● secondary dentine
● Tertiary dentine .
![Page 15: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Histological Sections
![Page 16: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Pulp
● The pulp forms, nourishes, innervates and repairs dentine.
● Soft connective tissue
contained within the pulp
chamber and the root canals.
![Page 17: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Tooth Supporting Structures
Teeth are supported by the perodontium which consists of:
1- The gingiva
2- Root cementum
3- Periodontal ligament
4- Alveolar bone
![Page 18: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Gingiva
● The gingiva has 2 main regions:
● the attached gingiva ● the free gingiva.
![Page 19: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Cementum
• Thin layer of calcified tissue covering the dentine of the root.
• Cementum varies in thickness at different levels of the root
• thicker at the root apex and inter-radicular areas.
![Page 20: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Cementum
•The prime function of cemntum is to give attachment of the tooth to collagen fibres of the periodontal ligament.
• Cementum can be repaired and regenerated
![Page 21: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Periodontal Ligament● Dense fibrous connective tissue that attaches the tooth to the alveolar bone.
● The periodontal space varies
according to the functional state of
teeth.● It is responsible for the functional
position of the tooth; eruption,
support (recovery after heavy loads)
and drift.
![Page 22: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Alveolar Bone
● The part of the maxilla and mandible that supports the teeth.
● Bone remodelling according to the
functional demands .● Alveolar bone requires functional
stimuli to maintain mass, otherwise it
atrophies. ● Outer and inner cortical plates● Individual tooth sockets are
separated by inter-dental septa.
![Page 23: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Jaw Bones
• The maxilla and the mandible form the upper and lower jaw bones.
• Histology of bone: compact and spongy bone.

Tempromandibular Joint
• The TMJ is the synovial articulation between the mandible and the cranium.
![Page 27: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Oral Mucosa• The oral mucosa represents the lining of the oral cavity
• It consists of oral epithelium and an underlying connective
tissue (lamina propria), and the basement membrane in
between.
![Page 28: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Oral Mucosa
• The oral
epithelium is poly-
stratified
squamous
epithelium.The
epithelial cells
(keratinocytes) are
arranged in layers.
![Page 29: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Oral Mucosa• Depending on the location and function of the epithelium, the
oral mucosae are classified into:
• masticatory mucosa
• lining mucosa
• specialized mucosa.
![Page 30: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Masticatory Oral Mucosa
• Masticatory mucosa covers
parts of the hard palate and
the gingiva.
• the epithelium is keratinised
to withstand masticatory
forces.
![Page 31: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Lining Oral Mucosa
• Lining mucosa covers the lips, cheeks, alveolar mucosa,
soft palate, ventral surface of the tongue and the floor of
the mouth.
![Page 32: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Specialized Oral Mucosa
Specialized oral mucosae include:
1- The mucosa covering the dorsal surface of the tongue.
2- The lingual tonsils.
3- The gingival attachment to teeth.
4- The vermillion border of the lip
![Page 33: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Specialized Oral MucosaThe dorsal surface of the tongue
• Characterized by the presence of lingual papillae.
• Some of the papillae possess a mechanical function, while others have a sensory function (taste buds)
![Page 34: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Specialized Oral MucosaLingual Tonsils
• Lingual tonsils are situated
at the posterior third of the
tongue, at the lateral borders.
![Page 35: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Specialized Oral MucosaGingival attachment to the tooth
• Characterized by the
presence of double
basement membranes, one
facing the connective tissue
and the other facing the
tooth.
![Page 36: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Oral Sub-Mucosa• Oral sub-mucosa is a
layer of loose fatty or
glandular connective
tissue.
• This layer contains
major blood vessels and
nerves supplying the
mucosa and separating it
from underlying bones
and muscles..
![Page 37: Introduction to Oral Histology](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081414/568134a0550346895d9b9b92/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Salivary Glands• Three pairs of major salivary glands and minor salivary glands.
• Major salivary glands:
• Parotid
• Submandibular
• Sublingual

Conclusion
It is important to understand the
normal structure, development and
function of oral structures, in order to
understand the nature of pathologies
faced in clinical practice.
