eruption and shedding Flashcards
define eruption
movements a tooth takes to attain and maintain its postion in the jaw
tooth will move in all directions except
apically
cell types of the PDL involved in eruption
fibroblasts, cementoblasts, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts
fibroblast
most numerous cell in the PDL. many fns:
- secretes ec substance
- lysis of ec substance
- contracting cell=fibromyocyte (connected to collagen fibers and when contracts, pulls on the collagen fibers to move the tooth)
stages of eruption
- preemergence
- prefunctional
- functional
preemergence stage main direction of movement
facially
preemergence stage starts with
appearance of dental lamina–>bud–>cap–>tooth germ–>REE and HERS. prior to root dentin formation
function of HERS
- determines root dentin outline
2. determine number of root canals
number of root canals is determined..
in preemergence stage via the diaphragm of HERS. 1,2,or3 openings
the bone crypt undergoes remodeling into the alveolar process in what stage
preemergence
prefunctional stage of eruption main direction of movement
occlusally
prefunctional stage of eruption
starts with root dentin formation and ends when tooth reaches the occlusal plane. merger (of oral epithelium and REE?)–>emergence (merged tissues undergo cell death). HERS elongates (to determine root outline), root dentin forms, HERS starts to break up at the CEJ, cementoblasts move in to form cementum on exposed dentin…this continues apically.
what are epithelial rests of malassez
remanents of epi cells from HERS in the PDL. appear during the pre-fn stage of eruption
during the pre-fn stage of eruption, REE becomes the
junctional epithelium (attached to the enamel and the cementum). has 2 basal lamina (1 connects to enamel and cementum, 2 connects to the c.t)
formation of the PDL and alveolar process occurs in which stage of eruption
preemergence
