This paper provides an anatomical overview of the dentin-predentin complex and its permeability. An unique anatomical feature of this complex is the presence of dentinal tubules which extend peripherally from the odontoblast-predentin junction throughout the thickness of the tissue. The permeability of dentin is a consequence of the presence of these tubules. Thus, this review concentrates on the anatomy of dentinal tubules and, in particular, on those studies which in the last decade have increased our knowledge of this anatomy. The structure, size, and number of dentinal tubules and the relationship of these features to the permeability of the tissue are discussed. This is followed by a description of the contents of dentinal tubules, with particular emphasis being paid to the literature concerning the extent of the odontoblast process.
本文提供了牙本质-前期牙本质复合体及其通透性的解剖学概述。该复合体的一个独特解剖特征是存在牙本质小管，这些小管从成牙本质细胞-前期牙本质交界处向周边延伸，贯穿整个组织厚度。牙本质的通透性是这些小管存在的结果。因此，本综述集中于牙本质小管的解剖学，特别是过去十年中增加了我们对该解剖学认识的那些研究。讨论了牙本质小管的结构、大小和数量，以及这些特征与组织通透性的关系。随后描述了牙本质小管的内容物，特别强调了有关成牙本质细胞突范围的文献。
