Abstract
1. Recordings have been made from nerve terminals in canine and third incisor teeth of cats. 2. Ninety-three tooth-pulp units in ten cats could be excited either by mechanical or electrical stimulation of adjacent mucous membrane or by electrical stimulation of the pulp of a nearby tooth. 3. Section of the trigeminal nerve centrally did not abolish these responses. 4. Results for twelve out of thirteen units tested with collision techniques indicated that the nerves were branched.Entities:
