The dental canaliculi (sometimes called dentinal tubules) are the blood supply of a tooth. [4] Odontoblast process run in the canaliculi that transverse the dentin layer and are referred as dentinal tubules. [5] The number and size of the canaliculi decrease as the tubules move away from the pulp and toward the enamel or cementum.
The canal containing the duct is called the nasolacrimal canal.It is formed by indentations in the inferior nasal conchae, maxilla and lacrimal bone.The canal drains into the nasal cavity through the anterior portion of the inferior meatus, which is between the inferior concha and the floor of the nasal cavity.
The lacrimal canaliculi have a mucosa composed of a non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium on a basement membrane and a highly elastic lamina propria. Surrounding the mucosa are skeletal muscle fibres continuous with the orbicularis oculi which forms a sort of sphincter. This may facilitate the draining of lacrimal fluid during blinking ...

The lacrimal sac or lachrymal sac [1] is the upper dilated end of the nasolacrimal duct, [2] and is lodged in a deep groove formed by the lacrimal bone and frontal process of the maxilla.
What does skin cancer look like? Skin cancers come in all shapes and sizes, but when it comes to identifying Basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma, here are a few key signs to ...
