Q

how does tooth formation happen?

A

Dental laminae develop from oral epithelium (ectoderm) and form enamel organs. The inner enamel epithelium later forms ameloblasts The rest of the tooth, periodontal ligament etc. derives from neural crest derived mesenchyme.

Q

tooth formation is and inductive process, explain

A

ameloblasts induce adjacent neural crest mesenchymal cells to become odontoblasts, which begin making dentin which induces enamel production. Crowns form first, then roots. Cementum is laid down on dentin of roots

Q

ameloblasts are divided into?

A

secretory ameloblasts and maturation stage ameloblasts

32
Q

where can we find secretory ameloblasts and describe them

A

lay down the entire partially mineralized enamel layer. These cells have an apical process called a Tomes process around which forms the new enamel .

33
Q

where can we find maturation stage ameloblasts and describe them

A

which differentiate from the secretory ameloblasts are involved in removal of most of organic material and final mineralization involving transport of ions. 70% of these cells are characterized by a ruffled border adjacent to the enamel that may be involved in the ion transport necessary for the final mineralization and the removal of the amelogenins and ameloblastin proteins. 30% are characterized by a smooth surface adjacent to the enamel.

58
Q

what are the types of papillae of tongue?

A

*Filiform papillae: the most numerous
*Foliate papillae: Present at birth on lateral surfaces of body of tongue, but rudimentary in adult

Q

Explain the taste perception of sweet, bitter and umami

A

involves activation of T1R and T2R family receptors with coupled G-proteins & coupled production of 2nd messengers (inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate – IP3) which activate taste specific Na+ channels causing depolarization of the cells causing opening of calcium channels resulting in the release of neurotransmitters.

72
Q

A

involves direct entrance of the Na+ and H+ ions through specific amiloride-sensitive Na+ channels, depolarization of the receptor cell plasma membrane and opening of calcium channels resulting in the release of neurotransmitters.
