HISTOLOGY OF THE DENTAL TISSUES. 63 The tooth-pulp, which is often erroneously termed the nerve, iscomposed of a very delicate connective tissue, nucleated cells, blood-ves-sels, and nerves, while in general outline it corresponds very closely to theexterior form of the tooth. The matrix, or basis substance of the pulp, iscomposed largely of a kind of undeveloped soft connective tissue, possiblybelonging to the mucous or gelatinous species containing numerous cellularelements (Ziegier) of rounded, oval, and spindle forms, with slender, hair-like processes (Fig. 183). The cells of the pulp are fairly abundant; they are found scatteredthroughout the matrix, embedded in the jelly-like material within theinterspaces, and upon the periphery. The form and distribution of the cells varies very considerably indifferent parts of the pulp. In the deeper coronal portions the cell
