Chapter 8 B: Teeth Embryological Development Flashcards
Pathologies in the dental organ are caused by?
Disorders in the odontogenesis
What are the characteristics of odontogenesis that differeinate it from other organs?
- its a very long and dynamic process
Very long process:
Because it ranges from earlier development embryonic stadiums to practically adolescence
Dynamic process:
It requires complex interactions between structures in development, constant interaction with the environment, the process is then very sensitive to embryological aggressions, manifesting itself in different pathologies
The stomodeum is
- the development of the primitive cranium and the oronasal cavity
- the primitive oral pit or stomodeum is the invagination of the surface epithelium positioned anteriorly between the forebrain and the adjacent centrally developing heart
During the 3rd prenatal week, the deep end of the oral pit is lined with ____, which is in close contact with the ____ of the foregut
Ectoderm, endoderm
The area of contact between the two epithelia (ecto and endoderm) is called
Oropharyngeal membrane
The Oropharyngeal membrane then disintegrates to create an?
Anterior external opening of the gastrointestinal tract in the 4th week of life
The ectoderm is?
The outermost layer of the embryo
Mesoderm is?
Intermediate, is one of the three cell layers constituting the embryo
The endoderm is?
The inner tissue layer of the three layers in which divides the tissues of the embryo
When does the face develop? and from what?
During the fifth to seventh week of uterine life , from four primordia that surround a central depression (the primitive oral pit) and develop different parts of our face
The facial primordia are?
- frontal process
- maxillary process
- mandibular arch or prominence
The frontal process is ?
A single process located above the oral pit
The maxillary processes are?
2, located lateral to the oral pit
The mandibular arch or prominence is?
Located below the oral pit
Where do the two maxillary processes arise from?
The first pharyngeal arch
The mandibular process gives rise to?
The mandible, the lower part of the face, and the body of the tongue
The upper face arises from the ?
Frontal process
The two maxillary processes will form the ?
Cheeks and most of the upper lip
The 20 primary and 32 permanent teeth develop from the interaction of?
The oral epithelial cells and the mesenchyme
What are the 3 stages of tooth development ?
Bud, cap, bell
The oral epithelial cells come from?
Enamel organ
EPC EO
The mesenchyme cells come from?
Dental papilla
MC DP
Enamel develops from the ?
Enamel organ
OPC E EO
Dentin develops from the?
Dental papilla
MC D DP
What other cells other than the oral epithelial cells and the mesenchymal cells contribute to the tooth development?
Neural crest cells
What is the first sign of tooth formation ?
The development of dental lamina rising from the oral epithelium
After primary teeth develop from the buds, the leading edge of the lamina continues to grow to develo the permanent teeth, this part of the lamina is called?
Successional lamina
How many of the permanent teeth replaces the 20 primary teeth ? and how many molars develop behind the primary dentition ?
20
12
What are the last teeth to develop and when do they develop?
Third molars, 15 years after birth
Which teeth do not succeed primary teeth?
Molars
What do the molars form from (the general/successional lamina)?
The general lamina
What forms the general and the successional lamina?
The initiating dental lamina, and it begins to function in the 6th prenatal week and continues to function until the fifteenth year, producing all 52 teeth
The bud stage?
- rounded, localised growth of epithelial cells surrounded by proliferating mesenchymal cells
The cap stage ?
As the rounded epithelial bud enlarges, it gains a concave surface, 11th week
The epithelial cells become the enamel organ
The mesenchyme cells the dental papilla which becomes the dental pulp
The tissue sounding these 2 structures is the dental follicle
The bell stage?
The tooth reaches morphodifferentiation and histodifferentiation , 14th week
The inner enamel epithelial cells are characterised by the shape of the tooth they form
The cells of the enamel organ have differentiated into the outer enamel epithelial cells (which cover the enamel organ) and the inner enamel epithelial cells (which becomes the ameloblasts that form the enamel of the tooth
And there’s the Stellate reticulum and stratum intermedium cells
Cells in the periphery of the dental papilla become odontoblasts (they differeinate from mesenchymal cell), the odontoblasts form predentin then after 24 hours dentin
After enamel organ is differentiated the dental lamina begins to degenerate by lysis
Where do the stratum intermedium cells lie and what is their function?
Adjacent to the IEE
Assist the ameloblasts in the formation of enamel
What is the function of the OEE?
To organise a network of capillaries that will provide the ameloblasts with nutrition
Which process happens first, amelogenesis or dentinogenesis?
Dentinogenesis
The dental papilla then forms into the ?
Dental pulp
