(From Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992),CSP: the formation of dentin; dentin first appears in the layer between the ameloblasts and odontoblasts and becomes calcified immediately; formation progresses from the tip of the papilla over its slope to form a calcified cap becoming thicker by the apposition of new layers pulpward; a layer of uncalcified dentin intervenes between the calcified tissue and the odontoblast and its processes.,GO: The process whose specific outcome is the formation of dentin, the mineralized tissue that constitutes the major bulk of teeth. Dentin may be one of three types: primary dentin, se
