THE ORGANIC ELEMENTS OF THE ENAMEL

III. THE PATTERN OF THE ORGANIC FRAMEWORK IN THE REGION OF THE NEONATAL AND OTHER INCREMANTAL LINES OF THE ENAMEL

REIDAR F. SOGNNAES 1

1 Harvard School of Dental Medicine, Boston, Mass.

The morphology of the incremental lines of the enamel has been studied in paraffin sections prepared by a low-temperature decalcification procedure.

The optical appearance of the incremental lines of the enamel, familiar from earlier studies of ground sections, is mainly caused by the morphology of the organic envelopes surrounding the prisms. In decalcified sections of deciduous teeth the striae of Retzius and the neonatal lines were found to be composed of a number of heavy zones in the prism sheaths along regions of contemporary enamel formation.
