Description

Types of tissue in teeth In Humans Enamel is a hard outer layer consisting primarily of calcium and phosphate.Dentin is the inner layer, the bulk of the tooth.Pulp is the core, containing nerves and blood vessels.Cementum is the thin layer around the root; a bone -like material which connects the teeth to the jaw. In Aardvarks Teeth lack enamel and have many pulp tubules, hence the name of the order Tubulidentata.Teeth (singular, tooth) are structures found in the jaws of many vertebrates. The primary function of teeth is to tear and chew food, and in some animals, particularly carnivores, for fighting and, or defense. The roots of the teeth are covered by gums. The protective enamel covers the teeth and helps prevent cavities. Adult teeth naturally darken with age as the pulp within the tooth shrinks and dentin is deposited in its place. Teeth are among the most distinctive features of mammal species and fossils as well. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
