Title: Pulpo-dentinal complex in longitudinal section of tooth
Description:
Tooth with damaged dentin, stain hematoxylin-eosin, human adult. If odontoblastic processes are damaged (e.g. erosion, caries etc.) the majority of the cells degenerates but some cells survive and will continue to deposit reparative dentin to seal off the zone of injury. Initiated from the pulpar perivascular stem cells the dead cells are replaced by migrating pulpar cells that differentiate into new odontoblasts. The latter also contributes to the formation of reparative (or reactive) dentin together with the surviving old odontoblasts. The reactive dentin shows fewer and more twisted tubules.

- Irregular course of dentinal tubules.
- Light stained (damaged) area contain no tubules.
- Pulp connective tissue
