dental enamel (material) (<tooth components as material>, <tooth and tooth components as materials>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Intensely hard calcareous substance covering the dentin, that is, part or all of the crown of the tooth in mammals. Enamel, when mature, consists predominantly of apatite crystals containing calcium and phosphate. Enamel is the hardest tissue of the body; it is not living and contains no nerves. The thickness and density of enamel vary over the surface of the tooth. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 覆蓋哺乳類動物全部或部分牙冠的鈣質物質,質地極為堅硬。發育完全的琺瑯質主要由含鈣及磷的磷灰石晶體構成。琺瑯質是人體中最堅硬的組織,不會再生、不含神經。琺瑯質的厚度和密度依據其於牙齒表面之位置而有所不同。 |
Dutch ..... Zeer harde, kalkhoudende substantie die een dun laagje vormt dat de tanden van de meeste zoogdieren helemaal of gedeeltelijk bedekt. |
German ..... Sehr feste, kalkhaltige Substanz zur Ummantelung von Zahnkonen oder ganzen Zähnen bei Säugern. Zahnschmelz bei erwachsenen Tieren wird überwiegend aus Apatitkristallen gebildet, die aus Kalzium und Phosphat bestehen. Zahnschmelz ist das härteste Gewebe des Körpers; es totes Material und enthält keine Nerven. Die Dicke und Dichte des Schmelzes variiert auf der Oberfläche des Zahns. |
Spanish ..... Sustancia calcárea muy dura que forma una delgada capa o que cubre parcialmente los dientes de la mayoría de los mamíferos. |
