Dentin Secondary

Secondary dentin (dentin secundarius) is a layer of dentin that forms on the surface of the tooth after the completion of the formation of primary dentin. This layer is made up of mineral and organic components that were preserved during tooth development and is protected from external influences.

Secondary dentin is important for tooth health. It protects the tooth from mechanical damage, chemical influences and bacteria, which can lead to the development of caries and other diseases. In addition, secondary dentin is involved in the formation of enamel and dentin during the process of remineralization.

However, if secondary dentin does not develop properly, it can lead to various dental health problems. For example, dentin can become more porous and less protected from bacteria, which can lead to the development of tooth decay.

To prevent the development of caries and other dental health problems, it is important to monitor the condition of secondary dentin and conduct regular dental examinations. If your dentist notices any problems with secondary dentin, he or she can suggest treatment to help keep your teeth healthy.

Dentin is a special type of dental tissue that forms about 96% of the total mass of the tooth. In its structure, dentin is a porous tissue with a complex internal structure. In this material, the main parts of dentin are the dentinal tubules (fiber cones) that penetrate the body of the tooth. Due to the constant loss of dentin hardness and the enamel layer, the process of resorption of the dentin mass occurs. Under unfavorable conditions, such as chronic inflammation in the oral cavity, certain bacteria or poor hygiene, the internal structure of dentin can be affected by microorganisms, leading to pathogenic processes. As a result of such processes, a change in the structure of the dentin body may occur or the underlying layer of enamel may disappear, which leads to caries and destroys the teeth and the bones that hold them in places called dental canals. Thus, Primary Dentin is the normal type of dentin in a healthy jaw. Secondary dentin is a particularly interesting case that occurs when an unhealthy environment around a tooth leads to inflammatory processes in its tissues (ear groove, cyst and tooth canals).

Secondary dentin is expressed primarily through three groups of signs and symptoms, which include pain when pressure is applied to the tooth, displacement or twisting of teeth, and loose or missing teeth from the area. These signs and symptoms may vary between patients who have Secondary Dentin. Although the signs and symptoms of Dentin Primary are associated with non-core pathologies, research shows that the symptoms are often more severe than in patients suffering from primary pathologies of the jaws.
