Description |
This image of the decalcified tooth shows the attachment of the gingiva (gum) to the dentin. Gingiva is masticatory mucosa; it is composed of lamina propria (dense CT) and parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium. The wedge of empty space was formerly occupied by the tooth`s enamel.
