Early Tooth Development (Larsen 2) Flashcards
Two tissues required by odontogenesis
- Oral ectoderm (epithelium)
- Ectomesenchyme (dental mesenchyme) (connective tissue)
Oral ectoderm
Oral epithelium that forms enamel organ
Ectomesenchyme (dental mesenchyme)
- Connective tissue
- Neural crest origin
- Forms dentin and pulp of both crown and root
Life cycle of a tooth
- Growth (Initiation, Proliferation, Morphodifferentiation, Histodifferentiation, Apposition [adjacent but different, like enamel and dentin])
- Calcification/Mineralization
- Eruption
- Attrition
Initiation: ______ is the first sign of tooth development, is a horseshoe-shaped thickening of the oral epithelium, and develops around 6 weeks in utero.
Dental lamina
Initiation: The _____ is an epithelial thickening that forms along ten specific points called ______ on both the mandibular and maxillary arches.
- Tooth bud
- Dental placode (becomes specific teeth)
Tooth bud stage: oral epithelium grows down into the _____.
Ectomesenchyme
Tooth bud stage: growth of oral epithelium becomes bulbous and resembles a ____.
Boot
Tooth bud stage: mitosis takes place on _____ and _____ causing a ______.
- Superior surface
- Distal tip
- Concavity
Tooth bud stage: oral epithelium will form _____.
Enamel
Tooth bud stage: Ectomesenchyme in cavity will become ______.
Dental papilla
Steps from dental lamina to tooth bud
- Dental lamina
- Elongation
- Tooth bud
In the cap stage, cells become ____ and ____ different.
- Functionally
- Morphologically
Outer Layer of the Enamel Organin Cap Stage (Outer enamel epithelium)
Single layer of cuboidal epithelium along the convexity of the cap
Inner Layer of the Enamel Organ Cap Stage (Inner enamel epithelium)
Single layer of low columnar cells along the concavity of the cap
Middle Layer of the Enamel Organ Cap Stage (Stellate reticulum)
Stellate shaped cells separated by glycosaminoglycans
Dental Papilla in Cap Stage: _______ in the concavity underneath the ______.
- Ectomesenchyme
- Inner enamel epithelium
Dental Papilla in Cap Stage: Forms the _____ and ____ of the crown
- Dentin
- Pulp
Dental Sac or Follicle in Cap Stage: ______ surrounding the developing enamel organ and dental papilla
Ectomesenchyme
Dental Sac or Follicle in Cap Stage: Will form ______, ______, and ______.
- Cementum
- Periodontal ligament
- Alveolar process
Cervical Loop in Cap Stage: ______ rim of the enamel organ formed by ______.
- Outer
- Outer and inner enamel epithelium
Cervical Loop in Cap Stage: Is later involved in ______ formation.
Root
