Embryology And Anatomy Flashcards
What root on the maxillary first molar has the least amount of root available for periodontal attachment?
Distobuccal
What is formed when the inner and outer enamel epithelium form at the base of the cervical loop?
Hertwig’s epithelial root sheath
The dental pulp is derived from the?
Dental papilla
What nerve does an infraorbital nerve block anesthetize?
Middle superior alveolar nerve
Arteries that supply the maxillary sinus
Deep temporal Sphenopalatine Posterior sup alveolar ASA Infraorbital
The mucosa covering the nasal cavity is what type of epithelium?
Pseudostratified columnar
What are the three embryonic layers in head and neck embryology?
Ectoderm
Mesoderm
Endoderm
Pharyngeal Arch Development
Brachial Arch (GR. Branchia = gill) Arch consists of three trilaminar embryo layers: ectoderm (outside), mesoderm (core of mesenchyme), endoderm (inside)
Neural crest
- Mesenchyme invaded by Neural crest, generating CT components
- Cartilage, bone ligaments
- arises from midbrain and hindbrain regions
Arch features
- each arch contains an artery, cartilage, and nerve
- humans have 5 arches (1,2,3,4,6) no 5 (regresses or does not form)
- forms rosto-caudal sequence, arch 1 to 6 (from week 4 onwards)
- arch 1,2: face, appear after closure of cranial neuropore
- arch 3,4: neck components (4&6 fuse)
The primary palate is formed by 2 parts
- Maxillary components of the first pharyngeal arch (lateral)
- Frontalnasal prominence (midline)
Intermaxillary segment gives rise to the following structures?
Nasal septum Primary palate Floor of the nasal cavity Philtrum Middle portion of maxilla Gingiva
What are the stages of tooth development?
Initiation Bud Cap Bell Maturation
What cells form the tooth germ?
These cells are derived from the ectoderm of the first pharyngeal arch and the ectomesenchyme of the neural crest
What three parts is the tooth germ organized into?
Enamel organ
The dental papilla
Dental sac or follicle
