Hanadi Baeissa Chemical Composition of The Teeth
Slide 2-

Hanadi Baeissa The main dental tissues: Teeth are made of: Enamel – Dentine – Cementum Enamel and dentine have different composition Cementum and dentine are very similar in composition
Slide 3-

The relations of the main dental tissues
Slide 4-

Hanadi Baeissa Composition of dental tissues Dental tissues are made of: Organic matter – minerals – water Different % of constituents depending on calculation of proportions by weight or volume Enamel: contains very little organic matter (~ 1.3% of dry weight or ~ 1.1% of wet tissues, but ~ 3% of the actual volume) - > 90% inorganic

Hanadi Baeissa Dentine: contains more organic matter (~ 20% of dry weight, or ~ 21% of wet tissues, but ~ 28% of the actual volume), while the inorganic part is ~ 72% of wet weight, or ~ 48% actual volume Cementum is similar to dentine in composition

Hanadi Baeissa Mineral composition: Most reliable analysis obtained by heating tissue to 105°C to evaporate water prior to analysis The most predominant mineral is calcium followed by phosphorus, and finally magnesium Ca and P are more in enamel Mg and CO2 are more in dentine

Hanadi Baeissa The structure of the inorganic fraction: The main constituent is the crystalline form of calcium phosphate known as apatite with (except probably in enamel) some amorphous calcium phosphate
Slide 11-

Hanadi Baeissa Apatites are a crystalline form having the general formula Ca10 (Po4)6 X2, and the most widely distributed type is hydroxy apatite (HA) where x is OH Apatites belong to the hexagonal system of crystals
Slide 12-

The crystal structure of hydroxyapatite
Slide 13-

Hanadi Baeissa Calcium in the apatite structure (two types) A- columnar calcium: forms a series of hexagons B- hexagonal calcium: lie within the hexagons, and the ions are arranged in triangles placed parallel to each other with adjacent triangles rotated through 60°C, so if viewed along the longitudinal axis, the calcium atoms in the two triangles would appear as a second hexagon
Slide 14-

The crystal structure of hydroxyapatite
Slide 15-

Hanadi Baeissa Phosphate in the apatite structure: phosphates are placed in two tetrahedra (each consisting of one phosphorus atom with four oxygen atoms) between pairs of calcium ions in the outer hexagon , so that one phosphorus and three oxygen atoms are above the plane of the calcium ions (the fourth oxygen atom being below the plane) and the other phosphate is arranged in the reverse way
Slide 16-

The crystal structure of hydroxyapatite
Slide 17-

Hanadi Baeissa The hydroxyl ions in the apatite structure: OH- are placed inside the triangles formed by the calcium ions. The O is either slightly above, or an equal distance below the plane of the calcium triangles. There is no room to accommodate two OH group pointing towards each other (-OH--- ---HO-) in adjacent calcium triangles.
Slide 18-

Hanadi Baeissa They must either be arranged in an ‘ordered column’ i.e. (OH- OH- OH- ….) along the axis or in ‘disordered column’ with the direction reversed at various places. The latter is supported by evidence, resulting in voids or vacancies where space prevents an OH group being placed
Slide 19-

The crystal structure of hydroxyapatite
Slide 20-

Hanadi Baeissa Fluoride in the apatite structure: Fluoride can enter the vacancies, so that it occupies a central position in the same plane as calcium ions In addition, it can replace OH ions The resulting crystal is more stable and less soluble than apatite without fluoride
Slide 21-

Hanadi Baeissa Biological apatite are non-stoichiometric: Pure synthetic apatite has Ca:P ratio of 2.15 Ratio is lower in bone and teeth Two properties of apatite explain the variation in nature
Slide 22-

Hanadi Baeissa Adsorption: e.g. adsorption of excess phosphate as (HPO4-) on the crystal surface, and of citrate, CO32-, HCO3- and magnesium as (MgOH)+ as well Ion exchange: e.g. substitution of Calcium by sodium and magnesium, or H3O+ for two adjacent calcium, or even absence of some calcium and the addition of one H+ to PO4 3+ to give HPO42- and the absence of OH- to maintain electrical balance

Slide 24-

Hanadi Baeissa The more general formula for biologically formed apatite is Ca10-x (HPO4)x (PO4)6-x (OH) 2-x .XH2O (where x is between o and 2, and normally a fractional number) Another likely component with apatite is Octa Calcium Phosphate (OCP): Ca8 H2 (PO4)6 .5H2O i.e. Ca8 (HPO4)2 (PO4)4.5H2O [Ca:P=1.33], thus explaining the lower Ca:P ratio in nature
Slide 25-

Hanadi Baeissa The crystallinity of apatite: Biologically formed crystals are not perfect Fluoride presence in environment during crystal formation improves crystallinity Magnesium and carbonate inhibit crystal growth and lead to formation of crystals with poor crystallinity
Slide 26-

Hanadi Baeissa The size, shape and orientation of crystals: The rods or prisms are the anatomical unit of enamel They are ~ 5μm in diameter and extending through its full thickness They are shaped like a key hole with a round head or, in some places, a fish tail The tails of one row fit between the heads of the next, so that the heads are towards the cusp. Crystallites within rods are oriented in a cuspal-cervical direction in the tail end, but perpendicular to this direction in the head end

Hanadi Baeissa Each row of prisms is inclined to its neighbors by 2° In the outer third the rows of prisms are parallel and roughly perpendicular to the enamel surface

Slide 30-

The outer surface of enamel frequently lacks the normal arrangement of rods (or prisms) but is arranged either in continuous layers parallel to the surface or as onion like curves This prism-less layer is usually 20-30μm thick, and present in deciduous truths and 70% of permanent teeth, although it did not cover the whole of the surface in most teeth, probably because it was worn a way by abrasion The apatite crystals in this layer are arranged almost at right angles to enamel surface in contrast to those within the prisms

Hanadi Baeissa Note: These changes in direction produce the optical phenomenon known as the Hunter Schreger bands
Slide 33-

Hanadi Baeissa The crystals in enamel are ~ 10x larger than those of bone or dentine i.e. smaller surface area/unit weight
Slide 34-

Hanadi Baeissa Minor inorganic constituents of enamel and dentine Higher concentration on the surface of enamel than within (F, Pb, Zn, Fe, Sb, Mn, Cl, Se) Lower concentration on surface than within (Na, Mg, CO32-) Distribution approximately uniform (K, Sr, Cu, Al)
Slide 35-

Hanadi Baeissa Concentrations range from a few ppm to <0.01 ppm. Only strontium, F and Zn reach or exceed conc. Of 100 ppm through out the teeth Ions that attach readily to apatite crystals tend to increase in parts of teeth which are exposed mostly to body fluid i.e. outer enamel, outer cementum and inner dentine
Slide 36-

Hanadi Baeissa Ions that dissolve out from crystals easily, will tend to decrease in the above parts Sodium concentration of enamel is higher than that of any other tissue in the body Magnesium rises in concentration from about 0.45% in outer enamel to 2% in inner dentine
Slide 37-

Hanadi Baeissa Factors affecting the composition of enamel and dentine Position in tooth: already discussed Type of tooth: e.g. F on surface of enamel is higher in incisors than in molars-opposite for proteins Effect of age: increase in F and Sr with age. Some may decrease or increase due to decreased permeability

Hanadi Baeissa Organic Matter of Dentine Collagen: Higher in the outer third Contains chondroitin sulphate OH-lysine higher than in skin Is linked to a phospho protein through an oligo saccharide
Slide 40-

Hanadi Baeissa Non collagen matrix: Approx. 20 components 2 large molecules: a glycoprotein containing sialic acid, and a proteoglycan containing CS. Both have phosphoserine Serum albumin and immunoglobulins are also present
Slide 41-

Hanadi Baeissa Lipids: Some is bound to, or trapped by, the mineral matter F.a., MAG, DAG, lecithin and cardiolipin are not bound Cholesterol, its esters and TAG are partially bound Citrate

Hanadi Baeissa Organic Matter of Enamel A. Protein Outer and inner enamel Consist of peptides of MW <3500 High in ser, pro, and gly Standing in acid becomes insoluble Contains bound carbohydrates (hexoses, fucose and xylolose) High content leads to reduction in spread of caries Soluble Insoluble Inner enamel Larger High in gly & leu
Slide 44-

Hanadi Baeissa B. Lipids: similar to dentine. Give strong staining reaction in early caries due to release from minerals C. Citrate: higher on the surface and near the amelo-dentinal junction than in the middle D. Lactate: similar distribution, but lower concentration

Hanadi Baeissa 10- Cementum Primary (Cell-free) Secondary (Cell-containing) Contains cells & Lacunae with canaliculi & is Lamellated also Covers the apical two- thirds of the root A series of lamellae parallel to direction of root present on the coronal third of the root
Slide 47-

Hanadi Baeissa Both contain collagen fibers of the periodontal membrane embedded Similar composition to dentine but lower ash content (Ca & P) Formed intermittently by cementoblasts, lying between the edge of the periodontal membrane, and a thin layer of uncalcified ‘pre cementum’ Continued formation through out life Amount & arrangement is influenced by occlusal stress
