Descriptor dentinogénesis
Scope note: Formación de la dentina. La dentina aparece primero en la capa entre los ameloblastos y los odontoblastos y se calcifica inmediatamente. La formación progresa desde la punta de la papila sobre la pendiente para formar un casquete calcificado que se vuelve más grueso por la aposición de nuevas capas hacia la pulpa. Una capa de dentina no calcificada se interpone entre el tejido calcificado y los odontoblastos y sus prolongaciones. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992)

Scope note: The formation of dentin. Dentin first appears in the layer between the ameloblasts and odontoblasts and becomes calcified immediately. Formation progresses from the tip of the papilla over its slope to form a calcified cap becoming thicker by the apposition of new layers pulpward. A layer of uncalcified dentin intervenes between the calcified tissue and the odontoblast and its processes. (From Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992)
