  2. Dentinogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentinogenesis

    Reactionary dentin is formed by odontoblasts when the injury does not damage the odontoblast layer. Reparative dentin is formed by replacement odontoblasts when the injury is so severe that it damages a part of the primary odontoblast layer. Thus a type of tertiary dentin forms in reaction to stimuli, such as attrition or dental caries.

  3. Dentin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentin

    Dentin is classified into three types: primary, secondary, and tertiary. [24] [25] Secondary dentin is a layer of dentin formed after the tooth's root has fully formed. Tertiary dentin develops as a result of a stimulus, such as a carious attack or wear. [26]

  4. Respiratory tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_tract

    The lungs can be included in the lower respiratory tract or as separate entity and include the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs, and alveoli. [3] Adult and pediatric airway anatomy. The respiratory tract can also be divided into a conducting zone and a respiratory zone, based on the distinction of transporting gases or ...

  5. Bronchus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronchus

    A bronchus (/ ˈ b r ɒ ŋ k ə s / BRONG-kəs; pl.: bronchi, / ˈ b r ɒ ŋ k aɪ / BRONG-ky) is a passage or airway in the lower respiratory tract that conducts air into the lungs.The first or primary bronchi to branch from the trachea at the carina are the right main bronchus and the left main bronchus.

  6. Human tooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth

    There are three types of dentin, primary, secondary and tertiary. [19] Secondary dentin is a layer of dentin produced after root formation and continues to form with age. Tertiary dentin is created in response to stimulus, such as cavities and tooth wear. [20]

  7. Human tooth development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth_development

    Dentin formation, known as dentinogenesis, is the first identifiable feature in the crown stage of tooth development. The formation of dentin must always occur before the formation of enamel. The different stages of dentin formation result in different types of dentin: mantle dentin, primary dentin, secondary dentin, and tertiary dentin. [31]

  8. Tertiary dentin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tertiary_dentin

    This form of dentin can be easily distinguished on the surface of a tooth, and is much darker in appearance compared to primary dentin. [2] Tertiary dentin will often not be visible on the surface of a tooth, but because it is more dense it can be viewed on a Micro-CT scan of the tooth. [3] Tertiary dentin on the surface of a gorilla tooth.

  9. Respiratory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_system

    The respiratory system (also respiratory apparatus, ventilatory system) is a biological system consisting of specific organs and structures used for gas exchange in animals and plants. The anatomy and physiology that make this happen varies greatly, depending on the size of the organism, the environment in which it lives and its evolutionary ...
