Q

when is the initiation stage?

A

week 6

30
Q

when is the bud stage?

A

week 8

31
Q

what happens in the bud stage?

A

initiation of epithelial proliferation into the mesenchyme causing the mesenchyme to condense into a ball (bud)

32
Q

when is the cap stage?

A

week 11

33
Q

what happens in the cap stage?

A

epithelial migration and proliferation within the mesenchyme to surround the condensed ectomesenchyme

34
Q

when is the bell stage?

A

week 14

35
Q

what happens in the bell stage? 4

A

dental lamina shrinks and degrades

inner ectomesenchyme -> dental papilla

outer ectomesenchyme -> dental follicle

enamel organ has 4 distinct layers

36
Q

when is the dental lamina removed from the source?
what does this leave behind?

A

week 17

Cell nests and cell rests which have cystic potential

37
Q

what happens in the crown stage?

A

Hard tissue formation -> dentine and enamel

38
Q

what are the 4 layers of the enamel organ from outer to innermost

A

outer enamel epithelium
stellate reticulum
stratum intermedium
inner enamel epithelium

Q

Inner enamel epithelium

forms ?? which will conform to ?

? cells at cusp tips that form ?

A

basal lamina
ADJ

columnar
ameloblasts -> enamel

47
Q

what does the stratum intermedium do?

A

Synthesis and transport stuff for the inner enamel epithelium e.g. matrix growth factors

48
Q

Stellate reticulum

? shaped due to ?

Role in ?

A

star
desmosomes

maintenance of shape and protection

49
Q

Outer enamel epithelium

? cells

Role to

A

cuboidal

maintain shape and allow exchange between ectomesenchyme and enamel organ

50
Q

what stage of tooth germ is this?

A

bud stage

51
Q

What stage is this?

A

cap stage

52
Q
A

cap stage

53

55
Q
A

crown stage

56
Q
A

crown stage

57
Q
A

crown stage

58
Q

what is this?

A

Enamel knot

Area of developing enamel that is a signal centre

59
Q

what is this?

A

Enamel niche

When dental lamina breaks down seen as a hole or depression

60
Q

what is this?

A

Enamel septum

Forms between the outer and inner epithelial cells, aids the change in shape from cap to bell stage

61
Q

what controls the initiation stage of tooth development?

A

epithelial signalling of growth factors that act on mesenchyme

SHH, BMP4 and FGF8

62
Q

what controls the bud stage of tooth development?

A

mesenchymal signalling of growth factors that act on epithelium

Msx1, Pax9 and Bmp4

63
Q

what controls the cap stage of tooth development?

A

enamel knot signalling that acts on mesenchyme and epithelium

FGF4/9 and BMP4/2

64
Q

what does the extracellular matrix do in tooth development?

A

Allows growth factors to bind, switch on and release

Allows cell adhesion, proliferation, migration, polarisation and differentiation

65
Q

name some important matrix molecules

A

Type I, III, IV collagen, laminin and other proteoglycans - syndecan and tenascin

66
Q

why are these matrix molecules important?
Type I, III, IV collagen, laminin and other proteoglycans - syndecan and tenascin

A

they ensure an intact membrane which is needed for mesenchyme and odontoblasts to bind to it so they can differentiate

67
Q

name a cytokine important in tooth development

A

BMP4

68
