Abstract
A tissue layer, which was continuous with the cementum covering the roots, was found external to the crown enamel of normal, unerupted permanent human teeth. Light microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and amino acid analysis indicated that the major constituent of this tissue was collagen.Keywords
