		Dentine forms the bulk of the tooth and is perforated by tubules that extend from the pulp to the enamel-dentine or cement-dentine junction.
		The density and diameter of the dentinal tubules increases with dentine depth from the EDJ (Enamel dentine junction) to the pulp region.
		The hydraulic conductance of dentine is determined by a number of variables that include the pressure moving fluid across the dentine, the length of the dentinal tubules, the viscosity of the fluid and the radius of the tubules.

	Dentine
		Dentine is the main supporting structure of the tooth and is the second hardest tissue in the body after enamel.
		The main structure is the dentinal tubule, which extends from the external surface to the pulp.
		Tertiary dentine has few tubules and is darker in colour and very dense in structure.

	Inactivation of local (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Aims The aim of the study was to investigate the inactivation by dentine of the antibacterial activity of various commonly used local root canal medicaments.
		Dentine was sterilized by autoclaving and crushed into powder with a particle size of 0.2-20µm.
		Aliquots of dentine suspension were incubated with the medicaments in sealed test tubes at 37°C for 24 h or 1 h before adding the bacteria.

	Impact of tooth-age on enamel and dentine auto-fluorescence using QLF (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		University of Liverpool, England, UK Objectives: To determine the impact of age related changes in dentine on the auto-fluorescence of both enamel and dentine under QLF conditions.
		The enamel and dentine of each sample was imaged using QLF; enamel (buccal and palatal), dentine (mesial and distal).
		The dentine translucency estimated age was also correlated against known age to act as a positive control.

	BDJ \| Do adhesive resins protect dentine from erosion by acids? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The objectives were to observe and quantify the effects of acids and the soft tissues, especially the tongue, on dentine and the bonding agents using four assessment techniques: qualitative assessment with SEM, surface roughness and thickness of resin with the TSM and volume loss with the laser profilometer.
		The dentine sections were protected by two resins and subjected to a tooth wear regime.
		For patients with uncontrolled erosion or tooth wear, applying a dentine bonding agent to exposed dentine is a practical option to prevent further damage.

	Dentine pin - Patent 4219620
		A dentine pin has a screw-threaded portion intended to break off and remain in the dentine, a shank, and a latch portion for engagement by the latch of a dental handpiece.
		A known form of dentine pin comprises a threaded portion which is attached by way of a neck to a cylindrical shank designed to fit into the handpiece of a dental drill.
		The known dentine pin suffers from the disadvantage that it is difficult to align the pin with the pre-drilled hole in order to screw the pin into the dentine.

	Dentinogenesis
		The dentine is a highly permeable tissue, because densely packed dentinal tubules radiate from the pulp throughout all the layers.
		In rat molars, the dentine formation slows down gradually during both the primary and the secondary dentinogenesis with no apparent transition from the former to the latter (Johannessen 1961, Hietala & Larmas 1992, Kortelainen & Larmas 1994).
		The tertiary dentine may also be named according to the quality of the irritation: The dentine formed as a response to attrition, abrasion or erosion is called "reactional dentine" to separate it from caries and preparation induced "reparative dentine".

	Environmental Health Perspectives 105-8, 1997: Article by Gulson and Gillings
		In three teeth, the circumpulpal dentine and cementum were removed from slices of the root and compared with contiguous slices in which the circumpulpal dentine and cementum were retained to evaluate the effect of circumpulpal dentine on lead isotopic composition and concentration.
		Such a hypothesis is supported by the observation that, in analyses of contiguous slices where the circumpulpal dentine was intact and removed, the data for the slice with removed circumpulpal dentine is invariably of poorer correlation compared with the slice where the circumpulpal dentine is retained.
		Alternative explanations for the reverse isotopic trends in dentine may be that the lead is mobilized from an endogenous source, such as cortical bone, and introduced to the dentine via the dentinal tubules, or that they reflect a two-way migration of lead in dentine.

	Dentine minerals
		Ca/P ratio was the same (1.8) in all the groups in dentine formed both before and after the onset of the experimental period.
		The amount of calcium in dentine formed before the experiment was higher than that formed during the experiment in all the groups, except in the group 2 (metabolic acidosis), in which it was lower (Table 7).

	Autofluorescence - a potential method for the in vitro validation of carious dentine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Autofluorescence distribution from carious dentine correlated with the highly softened tissue (detected using the Knoop indenter) and terminated at a level superficial to the translucent zone.
		Researchers also have a problem because dentine hardness is dependent on the degree of mineralisation of the tissue and there is quite a variation in the hardness of sound dentine as illustrated in this and other studies.
		Superficial dentine close to the EDJ and deep dentine close to the pulp are softer than the intervening dentine.

	Palaeos Vertebrates: Bones: Teeth: Overview-3
		Isolated scales of this type are known from the Furongian (Late Cambrian), and the typical dentine scale cone is commonplace among both the Pteraspidomorphi and Thelodonti.
		The dentine tubules and canals are generally straight and there are relatively few spaces (trapped cell bodies) in the crown.
		The pulp cavity is barely discernable, and its margin is rough or indistinct in the central region.

		Dentin was treated with either 10% phosphoric acid for 15, 30 or 60 seconds or with 37% phosphoric acid for 15, 30 or 60 seconds.
		This is the result of numerous factors, such as the nonretentive nature of the lesion, large areas of exposed dentin with limited enamel margins, and the high degree of flexure from occlusion that is transmitted to the restoration.
		It was concluded that the bond established between dentin and the resin composite was stable during the observation period, and that the filling material had not been harmful to the surrounding tissues.

	Chapt 6 - Dentine/Pulp
		Dentine can be divided up into mantle dentine - 10µm thick outer layer under enamel - and circumpulpal dentine.
		Their diameter varies and reduces with age by deposition of peritubular dentine until total blockage occurs and the dentine becomes sclerotic.
		Dentine may be studied in both ground and decalcified sections.

	Method and arrangement for producing a bridge for anchorage elements in dentine - Patent 5052928
		Identification data introduced or utilized in this or these stages relating to the individual different heights of the anchorage elements above the dentine and their different relative inclinations, and the positions and directions of the modular elements in relation to one another and to the anchorage elements are obtained and stored.
		The different heights H, H' are dependent on the appearance of the individual dentine, and any inclinations of the implanted pins are dependent on the fact that it is not possible to predict the directions of the pins inserted by an operation.
		The requirement imposed on the bridge structure is thus that the bridge elements shall be essentially in line with the direction of the dentine, including in the sense of the width or depth of the dentine.

		Moisture fluctuation within dentine was minimised by conducting all procedures under copious irrigation or in sealed containers of lubricant at pH=7.0.
		Although we might expect dentine wear characteristics to vary from enamel due to structural differences, little is known about the nature of human dentine wear.
		Enamel wear rates were less than dentine at the lighter loads of 6.2 kg (p<0.02) and 9.95 kg (p<0.05), whereas similar rates of wear were demonstrated for the two tissues at the highest load.

	High-sucrose diet and dentine
		Also, dentine may be infected through an incipient enamel lesion, even when no cavitation has occurred on the enamel surface.
		During secondary dentinogenesis, the rate of the dentine formation and the caries progression both are less than 1/10 of that during the the primary dentinogenesis.
		Calcium, phosphorus, fluoride, sodium, magnesium, zinc and the total content of minerals in dentine were determined with SEM equipped with an electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA).

	dentine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Sensitivity to pain, pressure, and temperature is transmitted via the odontoblastic extensions in the tubules to and from the nerve in the pulp chamber.
		Secondary dentine, a less well-organized form of tubular dentine, is produced throughout life as a patching material where cavities have begun, where the overlying enamel has been worn away, and within the pulp chamber as part of the aging process.
		A few animals, such as flounder and cod, have vasodentine, in which tubules are lacking, and the dentine is nourished directly by capillaries.

	Bone, enamel, dentine, milk & saliva share gene family
		Sometime after the move from spineless to having a backbone, the family of genes that controls tissue mineralization evolved to produce mammalian tooth enamel, bones and dentine, but fish enameloid developed from different genes, according to Penn State researchers.
		While similar structures and traits are often similar because they come from the same genetic basis, it is not unusual to have physical traits that look alike and serve the same purpose, developed from completely unrelated genes.
		The genes responsible for bones, enamel, dentine, milk and saliva in most vertebrates belong to the same family; that is, they descend from a common ancestral gene, and for the most part, reside on the same chromosome.

		Studies were conducted to assess the effect of adjacent dentine sections on the de- and remineralisation of enamel in vitro.
		Subsequently, enamel lesions and sound dentine were placed in an acid-gel system at pH 5.0, the enamel again either isolated or adjacent to dentine, with initial DSen (degree of saturation with respect to enamel) values adjusted to 0, 0.15 and 0.32 by adding calcium phosphate to the system.
		In conclusion, we have demonstrated inhibition of enamel demineralisation and the remineralisation of enamel lesions in the presence of dentine sections under acidic conditions which otherwise led to (further) demineralisation.
