Odontogenesis Flashcards
From what type of cells do tooth tissues derive from?
Stem cells originating in the ectoderm primary germ layer
When does odontogenesis occur?
6th embryonic week
What two tissues from the ectoderm are involved in odontogenesis?
Epithelium and mesenchyme
Dentinogenesis
Formation of dentin
Amelogenesis
Formation of enamel
Cemetogenesis
Formation fo cementum
What are the epithelial stages based on
Histological shapes of the epithelial tissue within a mesenchymal environment
What are the epithelial stages of tooth development?
Epithelial dental lamina stage
Epithelial bud stage
Epithelial cap stage
Epithelial bell stage
At what stage is the epithelium is arranged in 4 distinct cell layers
Epithelial bell stage
What happens during the tooth germ stage
Odontogenic epithelial and mesenchymal tissues are combined
Cells of each tissue is induced specifically to become fomative cells of dentin, enamel, cementum, and pulpal tissues
What tissue does the enamel organ derive from?
Epithelium
What tissue does the dental papilla drive from?
Mesenchyme
What tissue does the dental follicle derive from?
Mesenchyme
What occur during the primary dental lamina stage
Two epithelial invaginations appear in the lower anterior region of the lower jaw and later in the same week (6th) in the upper jaw
The invaginations descend into the underlying mesenchymal tissue (ectomesenchyme) and continue posteriorly within the mesenchyme as continuous epithelial bands
What are the 2 invaginations of the primary dental lamina stages?
Vestibular lamina
Primary dental lamina
Vestibular lamina
Facial band of invagination during primary dental lamina stage
Cell death will occur in the center of the vestibular lamina, leaving space known as the ‘vestibule’
Primary dental lamina
Lingual band of invagiation during primary dental lamina stage
Cells arising form the dental laminae (primary and secondary) become odontogenic epithelial part of tooth germ
Epithelial bud stage
Cells at the deep end of the dental lamina develop into epithelial knobs, known as ‘epithelial bud’
Each bud is surrounded by mesenchymal tissue, and bud cells are continuous with cells of the primary dental lamina
