  2. Sharpey's fibres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpey's_fibres

    Sharpey's fibres in the primary acellular cementum are mineralized fully; those in cellular cementum and bone are mineralized only partially at their periphery. [ 2 ] In the skull , the main function of Sharpey's fibres is to bind the cranial bones in a firm but moveable manner; they are most numerous in areas where the bones are subjected to ...

  3. Shin splints - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_splints

    The pain associated with shin splints is caused from a disruption of Sharpey's fibres that connect the medial soleus fascia through the periosteum of the tibia where it inserts into the bone. [14] With repetitive stress, the impact forces eccentrically fatigue the soleus and create repeated tibial bending or bowing, contributing to shin splints.

    Sharpey was born in Arbroath on 1 April 1802, the youngest son of the five children Mary Balfour and Henry Sharpy (sic), a shipowner from Folkestone who died before Sharpey was born. [ 2 ] William was educated at the high school in Arbroath and, in November 1817, began studies at the University of Edinburgh , firstly studying humanities and ...

  6. Kype - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kype

    At the snout, the needles strengthen into Sharpey's fibres. The speed at which the kype skeleton develops results in many osteoblasts and proteoglycans appearing along the growth zone. The dentary itself is made of compact bone , but the kype tissue contains chondrocytes and cartilage .

  7. Alveolar process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alveolar_process

    The alveolar bone proper is also called bundle bone because Sharpey's fibres, part of the PDL, are inserted there. Sharpey's fibres in alveolar bone proper are inserted at a right angle (just as with the cemental surface); they are fewer in number, but thicker in diameter than those found in cementum. [7]

  8. Bone canaliculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_canaliculus

    In bovine tibia diameter of canaliculi was found to vary from 155 to 844 nm (average 426 nm). [2] In mice humeri it varies from 80 to 710 nm (average 259 nm), while diameter of osteocytic processes varies from 50 to 410 nm (average 104 nm).

  9. Cementum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementum

    Cementum situated around a human molar The cementum is the surface layer of the tooth root, covering the dentin (which is labeled B).Rather than being a passive entity like paint on a wall, cementum is a dynamic entity within the periodontium.
