Enamel increases in volume and surface area with distance from the dentin-enamel junction, particularly at cusps, while the number of rods remains constant. The increase in volume may be due to the increased rod diameter near the tooth surface, a circumferential winding of rods in the parazone orientation of Hunter-Schreger bands, and the migration of rods from a mid-coronal origin at the dentin surface to a cuspal termination at the tooth surface. Increased surface area can be explained by the increased rod diameter and the oblique approach of rods to the tooth surface.
