This book addresses the structural and biological properties of
dental and peridental tissue structures and covers their
mineralization process. The book contains a description of
dentines, cementum, enamel and bone, including collagens, as well
as non-collagenous proteins (SIBLINGs, SLRPs, GAGs, PGs, lipids,
and MMPs). The mechanisms of mineralization are described in detail
and the book is focused on matrix vesicles, collagen mineralization
and the role of non-collagenous extracellular matrix components
either as promoters or inhibitors of mineralization. In addition,
the matrix components (non-collagenous) of enamel (amelogenin,
ameloblastin, enamelin, MMP4, MMP20 and other proteases) are
reviewed and their respective roles in dental tissues
biomineralizations and tissue turnover are discussed. Additionally,
environmental factors involved in enamel / dentin defects are
adressed. With state-of-the-art contributions from experts in the
respective domains, the book is a useful introduction to the field
for junior scientists, interested in dental and peridental tissue
biomineralization. It is also an interesting read for advanced
scientists and clinicians working in dental research, giving them a
broader view of the topic beyond their area of specialization. The
series Biology of Extracellular Matrix is published in
collaboration with the American Society for Matrix Biology.
