A manual of human physiology, including histology and microscopical anatomy, with special reference to the requirements of practical medicine . Fig. 122. Vertical section of atooth — p, pulpcavity; d, dentine;c, cement; s,enamel. are bounded by an ex-tremely resistant, thin,cuticular membrane,which strongly resiststhe action of chemicalreagents. These tubulesare tilled completely by STRUCTURE OF THE TEETH. 301 The dentinal tubules, as well as the fibres of Tomes, anastomose throughouttheir entire extent by means of fine processes. As the fibres approach the enamel,which they do not penetrate, some of them bend on themselves, and form a loop(Fig. 124, c), whilst others pass into the inter globular spaces, which are soabundant in the outer part of the dentine (Czermak, 1850). These interglobularspaces are small spaces bounded by curved surfaces. Certain curved lines Schregers lines (1800), may be detected with the naked eye in the dentine (,of the elephants tusk) running parallel with the contour of the tooth. They arecaused by the fact that at these parts all the chief curves in the dentinal tubulesfollow a similar cours
