[Aprismatic external layer of deciduous and permanent teeth].
The authors verify the presence of an aprismatic layer at the surface of human deciduous and permanent, erupted and non erupted teeth, by means of the polarizing and scanning electron microscope. The results allowed the Authors to conclude that the presence of different extents of aprismatic enamel at the surface of human teeth should be regarded as a constant and normal feature, with some different frequency and organization patterns between different tooth types.
