(E1) 3 - Odontogenesis Pt I: Early Tooth Formation Flashcards
Exam 1 - BLANKENSHIP
Mandibular and maxillary arches arise primarily from the ____ with small contribution from ______
PA1
Frontonasal proess
Maxillary premolars and molars arise from ___________
maxillary process of PA 1
Where do all mandibular teeth arise from?
Mandibular process of PA1
Where do maxillary incisors arise from?
Frontonasal region (intermaxillary segment)
The early established oral cavity is lined by stratified squamous epithelium called the _______________
oral ectoderm
Epithelium covers the embryonic connective tissue called ____________
ectomesenchyme
What is ectomesenchyme made up of?
Derived from neural crest cells mixed with mesenchyme
~5-6 weeks of gestation, basal cells of the oral ectoderm proliferate faster creating a thickened band called the

Primary epithelial band
What does the primary epithelial band indicate?
Position of future dental arches
The primary epithelial band gives rise to two subdivisions. What are they?
Dental Lamina
Vestibular Lamina
What is the dental lamina?
What is the vestibular lamina?
In what direction does the formation of future dental arches occur?
Begins anterior and progresses posterior.
All teeth (and appendages) develop from two germ layers. What are they?
