Cross-Sectioned Dentinal Tubules Near the Pulp

This is a ground section of dentinal tubules in cross section taken near the dentin-pulp interface. Note the increase in density of the tubules at this level but that they retain their differential diameters. Reidentify dentinal tubules (A), peritubular dentin (B), intertubular dentin (C), odontoblast processes (D).
