Chapter 4 Developmental Disturbances in Tissue Structure

  • Chapter
Dental Pathology

Abstract

As enamel content is almost 100% mineral, it cannot withstand the decalcification needed to allow paraffin sectioning. Therefore, in general, it is not present anymore in the histologic sections and so, the histopathologist usually will not be faced with problems of how to interpret changes in this tissue type.
