| dentinal tubules | Minute, wavy, branching tubes or canals in the dentin; they contain the long cytoplasmic processes of odontoblasts and extend radially from the pulp to the dentoenamel junction. Synonym: dental tubules, dentinal canals, dentinal tubules, tubuli dentales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolar canals | Canals in the body of the maxilla that transmit nerves and vessels from the alveolar foramina to the maxillary teeth. Synonym: canales alveolares, alveolodental canals, dental canals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolodental canals | Canals in the body of the maxilla that transmit nerves and vessels from the alveolar foramina to the maxillary teeth. Synonym: canales alveolares, alveolodental canals, dental canals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ampulla of the saemicircular canals | A circumscribed dilation of one extremity of each of the three bony saemicircular canals, anterior, posterior, and lateral; each contains an ampulla of the saemicircular ducts. Synonym: ampulla ossea, osseous ampulla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior saemicircular canals | The three bony tubes in the labyrinth of the ear within which the membranous saemicircular ducts are located; they lie in planes at right angles to each other and are known as anterior saemicircular canal, posterior saemicircular canal, and lateral saemicircular canal. Synonym: canales saemicirculares ossei. (05 Mar 2000) |
