[The enamel-dentin membrane in the scanning electron microscope].
In the scanning electron microscope in detailed structure of the dentino-enamel membrane can be investigated. This membrane is mineralized. After partial demineralization it covers the bottom of prism margins and enables their firm anchoring on the surface of dentin. Here the prism bundles are anchored in dishlike formations, on the bottom of which a network of fibers is found, covered by the dentin-enamel membrane. Through artificial fissures in the membrane the above mentioned network of fibers can be seen.
