Tooth Development Flashcards
when does tooth development start?
5-6 W.I.U
what r the morpholgical stages of tooth development?
1-Stage of dental lamina
2-Bud stage
3- Cap stage
4- Bell stage, divided into:
- Early bell stage
(before any hard-dental tissue formation).
- Late or advanced bell stage
(starts when first layer of dentin is formed).
At the age 5-6 W.I.U., the primitive oral cavity, or stomodeum, is lined w/ ??
by stratified squamous epithelium
(oral ectoderm)
- The surface layer consists of ______ cells and a basal layer of ______ cells.
- The epithelium is separated from the CT by a ________
flattened
columnar
basement membrane
What r the Histophysiological Stages of tooth development?
1- INITIATION
2- PROLIFERATION
3- HISTO-DIFFERENTIATION
4- MORPHO-DIFFERENTIATION
5- APPOSITION
what happens @ 6th. W.I.U.L.?
- the basal cells proliferate at a faster rate than the adjacent cells
- forming separate islands in the underlying mesenchyme under the influence of the ectomesencymal cells (neural crest cells)
- These islands grow to coalesce together forming primary epithelial band which extends along the free margin of the developing jaw
what happens @ 7th W.I.U.L. ?
The primary epithelial band divides into two laminae:
- a facially located vestibular lamina
- a lingual dental lamina.
info on dental lamina:
- Sheet-like structure, band or lamina which extends along entire free margin of jaws
- Permanent successors develop from lingual extension of the dental lamina (successional dental lamina
- Permanent molars develop from a D extension of the dental lamina
what is the life Span of the dental lamina:
The dental lamina is active from
5th WIU
(beginning of development of primary teeth)
To
5 years
(when the 3rd permanent molar is initiated).
info on the bud stage:
proliferation of the dental lamina on its labial surface leads to the formation 10 swellings (buds) for the development of the deciduous teeth.
*These buds are called enamel organ (also called dental organ).
The ectomesenchymal cells condensation beneath the enamel organ is cld…
dental papilla
The connective tissue-beneath-and around the enamel organ and dental papilla forming what is cld…..
dental sac (follicle)
what r the sources of nutrition for the dental organ?
dental sac and dental papilla
what forms the tooth germ?
- dental organ
- dental papilla
- dental sac
dental organ forms the??
enamel
dental papilla forms??
dentine and pulp
dental sac forms???
-Cementum
-Periodontal Ligament
-Alveolar bone proper
what happens in the cap stage?
- The tooth bud continues to grow.
- It does not expand uniformly into a larger sphere
- due to unequal growth in the different parts of the enamel organ leading to a shallow invagination on the deep surface of the bud.
what r the Histological structures of the cap stage??
1- Outer enamel epithelium
2- Inner enamel epithelium
3- Stellate reticulum
4-Transitory structures:
A- Enamel Knot
B-Enamel cord
5-Dental papilla
6-Dental sac
what is the only component that arises from ectodermal tissue?
enamel organ
talk about Outer enamel epithelium (O.E.E):
- Single layer of cuboidal epithelial cells
- w/ deeply stained rounded nucleus
- It forms the outer convex surface of the enamel organ.
rant on the inner enamel epithelium (I.E.E)
- it consists of a single layer of columnar epithelium
- w/ deeply stained nucleus
- arranged at the concave surface of the enamel organ.
Stellate reticulum…
*It occupies the central portion of the enamel organ between its outer and inner enamel epithelia.
- It consists of several layers of branching star shaped cells.
*Their branches anastomose with those of adjacent cells and w/ the outer and inner enamel epithelia forming desmosomes
The intercellular spaces are rich in
____________ which are _______
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)
hydrophilic
talk about the enamel knot
- It is a localized cellular condensation in the region of the inner enamel epithelium, @ center of the tooth germ.
- It disappears before enamel formation.
- It controls cuspal morphogenesis.
who is zat Enamel cord?
it appears as a strand of cells running from the enamel knot to the O.E.E.
* It disappears before enamel formtn
* It may give rise to stallate reticulum
what r the Transient Structures in the Cap Stage?
Enamel Knot and Enamel Cord
what is the Dental papilla??
The ectomesenchymal cells condensed beneath the enamel organ form dental papilla.
The cells of this layer show remarkable division and condensation.
It is separated from the inner enamel epithelium by a cell free zone.
