[HTML][HTML] Dentin: Structure, Composition and Mineralization: The role of dentin ECM in dentin formation and mineralization
A thick dentin layer forms the bulk of dental mineralized dental tissues. Dentin is capped by
a crown made of highly mineralized and protective enamel, and in the root, it is covered by …
