What are the stages of tooth developement?
-initiation
-bud stage
-cap stage
-bell stage
-apposition
-maturation
What occurs during initiation?
cellular induction
What occurs during the bud stage?
cellular proliferation
What occurs during the cap stage?
proliferation, differentiation, and morphogenesis
What occurs during the bell stage?
proliferation, differentiation, and morphogenesis
-see all different layers
What occurs during apposition?
induction and proliferation
What occurs during maturation?
maturation
-calcification
What type of tissue determines the fate of the neural crest cells?
epithelium
What does the mesenchyme determines about the teeth?
the type of tooth that it will become
What type of cell will form the enamel organ?
ectoderm
When does the induction stage of tooth development occur?
during the 6th and 7th weeks of development
How is the dental lamina formed?
the ectoderm invaginates into the mesenchyme
What separates the lamina from the surrounding mesenchyme?
basement membrane
What happens to the ectoderm during the bud stage?
the proliferating ectoderm transitions into dental lamina
When does the early cap stage occur?
9th-10th weeks
How does the buccal vestibule form?
because of apoptosis of cells
What is the stellate reticulum?
loose layer of cells that help to provide support to the epithelium
What will the dental sac help form?
the PDL, cementum, and alveolar bone
What is the cell type and the function of the OEE?
cuboidal cells
protective barrier
What is the cell type and the function of the IEE?
cuboidal cells
differentiate into ameloblasts
What is the cell type and the function of the stellate reticulum?
-star shaped cells forming network inside enamel organ
-supportive function in enamel production
What is the cell type and the function of the stratum intermedium?
compressed layer of flat cuboidal cells
-supportive function in enamel production
What is the cell type and the function of the dental sac?
collagen fibers around enamel organs
-differentiate into cementum, PDL, and bone
What is the cell type and the function of the dental papillae?
cells nearest IEE have basement membrane separation
-outer cells differentiate into odontoblasts, whereas inner cells differentiate into pulp tissue
What tissues are in the enamel organ?
-OEE
-stellate reticulum
-stratum intermedium
-IEE
What is the cervical loop?
junction of the outer and inner enamel epithelia
-site of CEJ in adults
What is hertwig’s root sheath?
fusion of apical extension of the outer and inner enamel epithelium
