Q

Describe the formation of the sulcus.

A

-Primary epithelial band gives rise to:
◦ Dental Lamina
◦ Vestibular lamina
Vestibular lamina grows then and then breaks down to forms vestibule between teeth and lips/cheeks

18
Q

what are the 3 overlapping phases of tooth development?

A
  • initiation
  • morphogenesis
  • histogenesis
19
Q

what is tooth development an interaction between?

A

epithelium and mesenchyme (ectomesenchyme)

20
Q

what does epithelium give rise to?

A
  • enamel

- hyaline layer of the root

21
Q

what does mesenchyme give rise to?

A
  • dentine
  • pulp
  • cementum
  • periodontium (PDL and bone)
22
Q

when does initation of tooth development start?

A

6 weeks i.u

23
Q

what happens in initiation?

A

Localised epithelial thickening in incisor and molar regions

24
Q

which tissue initiates tooth development?

A

◦ Epithelium, ectomesenchyme or nerve?
◦ Evidence from tissue recombination experiments…..
◦ Epithelium initially has the odontogenic potential, then the ectomesenchyme

25
In what circumstances will a tooth grow?
Dental epithelium + non-dental ecto-mesenchyme
26
In what circumstance will a tooth not grow?
- dental epithelium + non-dental mesenchyme | - non-dental epithelium + dental ectoderm-mesenchyme
27
what are the stages of the tooth germ?
- bud stage - cap stage - bell stage - crown stage
28
what happens to the dental lamina during stages of the tooth germ?
- continues to lengthen | - changes shape
29
what happens to the ectomesenchymal during stages of the tooth germ?
condensation
30
what is classification of the stages based on?
appearance
31
what are the components of tooth germ?
- enamel organ - dental papilla - dental follicle
32
what happens in the bud stage (8th week)?
- Spherical/ovoid epithelial condensation - Cell proliferation - No histodifferentiation or morphogenesis
33
what happens in the cap stage (11th week)?
- Cap shaped enamel organ - Poorly histodifferentiated - Little morphogenesis
34
what happens in the early bell stage (14th week)?
``` Morpho- and histo-differentiation Enamel Organ: ◦ Inner enamel epithelium ◦ Stratum Intermedium ◦ Stellate reticulum ◦ Outer enamel epithelium Ectomesenchyme: ◦ Dental Papilla ◦ forms odontoblasts (dentine) and pulp ◦ Dental Follicle ◦ forms cementum, PDL and bone ```
35
what is inner enamel epithelium (enamel organ component)?
◦ Basal lamina conforms to future ADJ ◦ Columnar cells at cusp tips ◦ Role: forms ameloblasts -> enamel
36
what is stratum intermedium (enamel organ component)?
◦ Flattened cells | ◦ Role: Synthesis and transport to and from IEE
37
what is stellate reticulum (enamel organ component)?
◦ Star shaped ◦ Fluid filled extracellular space ◦ Osmotic gradient due to extracellular GAGs. ◦ Role: maintenance of shape and protection
38
what is outer enamel epithelium (enamel organ component)?
◦ Cuboidal cells | ◦ Role: maintenance of shape and exchange
39
what happens at bell stage (week 17)?
-Breakdown of dental lamina -> formation of cell rests, cell nest (cystic potential )
40
What is the Extracellular matrix and what happens in development?
- Important in morphogenesis and differentiation. - Adhesion, migration, proliferation, polarisation and differentiation. - Expression of type I, III, IV collagens, laminin, various proteoglycans- basement membrane of developing tooth - Changes in fibronectin, tenascin, type I and type III collagen and syndecan. - Changes in integrin expression especially alpha v beta 5. - Need intact basement membrane for differentiation of mesenchyme to odontoblast.
