Caption: Human tooth anatomy. Diagram of a cross-section through a human tooth to show its anatomical structure. The two main areas are the crown (above the gum-line) and the root (embedded in the gum). The tissue and mineral layers shown here include: enamel (purple, covering the crown), dentin (grey with black dots), the pulp (red), blood vessels and nerves (black, within pulp), cementum (purple, covering the root), connective tissue (yellow), and bone (black with white dots). Also shown is the root canal, the dark space between the two protrusions that form the tooth's root.
