(Redrawn after Corning.) responding to the silver plate, the dentine to the underlying metal. As the tooth grows, it increases in length as well as in thickness, adding first a neck and later a root. The opening into the inner pulp cavity becomes more and more restricted as the root elongates until finally only a minute foramen remains to admit blood-vessels and nerves. The nerves grow into the pulp and acquire free terminations among the odontoblast cells. The cement layer is the last to be added. Cement is secreted by bone-cells which penetrate the connective-tissue sac enclosing the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Neal, Herbert V.
