THE ASPECT OF THE BANDS OF SCHREGER IN THE HORIZONTAL SECTIONS OF THE ENAMEL

JORGE ERAUSQUIN 1

1 Catedra de Histologia y Embriologia, Escuela de Odontologia, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina

The bands of Schreger correspond to a horizontal double curvature of the prisms in the inner two thirds of the enamel in the lateral plates. This double curvature involves a complete ring of enamel. In different rings, the deviation is to the left or to the right, alternately.

The enamel rings are not completely flat but rather are slightly conic. For that reason a horizontal section cut through two or three of these rings, with the alternate deviation to the right and to the left, shows concentric rings.
