Odontogenesis Flashcards
what is odontogenesis
Formation of tooth tissues from stem cells originating in the ectoderm
when does Odontogenesis begin
6th embryonic week
what parts of the ectoderm are involved in tooth development
Epithelium and mesenchyme
what tissue contains stem cells that become the specialized cels that form tooth tissues
Odontogenic tissues
Fomation of dentin tissue
Dentinogenesis
Formation of enamel tissue
Amelogenesis
Formation of Cementum tissue
Cementogenesis
Formation of pulp tissue
Pulpogenesis
two histologic stages of odontogenesis
Epithelial stages
Tooth germ stages
Epithelial stages
Epithelial dental lamina stage
Epithelial bud stage
Epithelial cap stage
Epithelial bell stage (enamal organ)
when is the epithelium arranged in 4 distinct layers
At the bell stage
what are the epithelial stages based on
Histologic shapes of epithelial tissues
what happens in the tooth germ stage
the odontogenic and epithelial and mesenchymal tissues combine and cells of each induced specifically to become formative cells of dentin, enamel, cementum and pulp tissues
the 3 parts of the tooth germ and the type of cells that make them up
Enamel organ (bell):
Dental papilla: mesenchym
Dental Follicle: mesenchyme
the parts of the tooth germ give rise to
specialized cels that form tooth tissues
when does the primary dental lamina stage occur
6th embryonic week
what occures in the dental lamina stage
2 epithelial invagination in the lower anterior region of the lower jaw (upper happens later in the same week) decend into the ectomesenchyme
what are the 2 bands formed in the primary dental lamina stage
Facial: vestibular lamina
Lingual: primary dental lamina
what happens to the vestibular lamina
Cell death occurs in the cental of the vestibular lamina leading to the vestibular
what happens to the primary dental lamina
Cells arisisng for the dental laminae become the odontogenic epithelial part of a tooth germ
