Pulp
Pulp
• The pulp cavity occupies the
  central area of the tooth
  enclosed by dentin.
• The pulp has the cellular,
  fibrous, neural and vascular
  components of typical loose
  connective tissue.
• The main function of the pulp
  is the production and
  maintenance of the dentin.      A, Pulp cavity;
                                  B, Dentin;
                                  C, Odontoblasts
Nerve Plexus of Raschkow
• Sensory nerve fibers that originate from
  inferior and superior alveolar nerves
  innervate the odontoblastic layer of the
  pulp cavity.
• These nerves enter the tooth through
  the apical foramen as myelinated nerve
  bundles.
• They branch to form the
  subodontoblastic nerve plexus of
  Raschkow which is separated from the
  odontoblasts by a cell-free zone of
  Weil.
• In addition to the sensory nerves,
  sympathetic nerve bundles also enter
  the tooth to innervate blood vessels.
                                             A, Odontoblasts;
                                             B, Cell-free zone of Weil;
                                             C, Nerve plexus of Raschkow
Vascular supply of pulp cavity
• The pulp cavity receives blood
  from one arterial that enters
  the apical foramen and courses
  directly to the coronal pulp.
• Within the coronal pulp
  numerous arterial branches
  form a interconnected network
  of blood vessels as seen here
  following filling with ink.
• The smallest capillary loops
  are in the subodontoblastic
  zone (arrow).
Structures within the pulp cavity


• Arterioles, small
  nerve bundles
  and fibroblasts
  are found in the
  pulp cavity


                      A, Nerve bundle;
                      B, Arteriole;
                      C, Fibroblasts
Structures within the pulp cavity
• Arterioles can be
  distinguished from
  venules within the
  pulp cavity by the
  thickness and
  contours of their
  vascular walls.


                       A, Arteriole; B, Venule;
                       C, Nerve bundle (cut in cross-section)
Subodontoblastic region

• Below the odontoblastic
  layer is the cell-free zone
  of Weil followed by a
  cell-rich zone which is
  thought to provide
  replacement cells for
  odontoblasts that die.
• Within these zones are
  the nerve plexus of           A, Cell-rich zone;
  Raschkow and capillary        B, Cell-free zone;
                                C, Odontoblastic layer;
  network.                      D, Dentin
Denticle
• The formation of a true
  pulp stone or denticle is
  brought about by the
  differentiation of pulp cells
  to odontoblasts within the
  pulp cavity.
• The resulting body has an
  appearance characteristics
  of dentin with tubules
  radiating out from the
  center and predentin            A, True pulp stone;
  around the periphery.           B, Pulp cavity;
                                  C, Dentin
False pulp stone
• The formation of a false
  pulp stone is caused by the
  nonspecific calcification of
  tissue around a central
  nucleus within the pulp
  cavity.
• This pulp stone is
  characterized by concentric
  layers of mineralization
  rather than radiating
  tubules as seen in true pulp
  stones.
                                 A, False pulp stone; B, Pulp cavity
Regions of the pulp cavity


• The pulp cavity can be
  divided into two main
  regions: the coronal pulp
  is located within the
  crown of the tooth and
  the radicular pulp is
  located within the root.
                              A, Coronal pulp;
                              B, Radicular pulp
