Tooth Development with Chu Flashcards
The primitive oral cavity is called? What two plates is it bounded by?
Stomatodeum Bounded by Neural plate and Cardiac plate
The stomatodeum is separated from the foregut (pharynx) by what membrane?
Buccopharyngeal membrane
What structure disintegrates allowing the stomodeum to increase in depth during the development of the face in the 4th week?
Buccopharyngeal membrane
True or False?
The formation of the stomadeum, a shallow depression in ectoderm, initiates the development of the face.
True
What gives rise to oral epithelium ? What does the oral epithelium develop into?
Stomadeum gives rise to oral epithelium, then some of the oral epithelium develops into dental lamina (Stomadeum-> oral epithelium–>dental lamina)
What week does odontogenesis begin? What two tissue types form at the start of odontogenesis?
-6th week -oral epithelium (forms dental lamina) and ectomesenchyme
The appearance of what signifies the start of odontogenesis?
-dental lamina signifies start of odontogenesis
what month do primary teeth begin to form ? When do permanent teeth begin to form?
primary- 4th month permanent-at birth
Generally speaking, what directs and coordinates the process of tooth development?
Genes
Pathways of tooth development involves the interactions of what ?
*Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions* between overlaying oral epithelium and underlying mesenchyme Note: Secretions of growth factors from the dental lamina induce the differentiation of the ectomesenchyme
True or False: Tooth agenesis affects primary teeth more than permanent teeth.
False. Tooth agensis affects permanent dentition more than primary
What is the horse-shoe shaped band of epithelial cells called? (also called the primary epithelial band)
dental lamina *remember, dental lamina arises form oral epithelium, which arises from stomodeum*
what cells surround the dental lamina?
neural crest- derived ectomesenchyme
what two cells structures form the future jaws?
- oral epithelium 2. ectomesenchyme (derived from Neural Crest Cells)
what separates the dental lamina and the ectomesenchyme?
Basal lamina
*so if you are looking at a section of the mandibular process; top layer would be oral epithelium, then basal lamina, then ectomesenchyme
When the primary epithelial band invaginates it is called?
dental lamina
(oral epithelium–>primary epithelial band {invaginates into ectomesenchyme} –> dental lamina)
what is andontia?
what tissues are this defect associated with?
andontia- congenital absence of ALL teeth
associated with ectodermal dysplasia (defect in development of all ectoderm-derived tissues) including dental lamina
what is partial andontia?
hypodontia vs oligodontia?
partial andontia is the absence of SOME teeth, involved with defects of the dental lamina.
- hypodontia- 1-5 teeth missing
- oligodontia- 6 or more teeth missing
hyperdontia?
most common type?
supernumerary teeth of permanent dentition;
caused by extra rooth germ formation–caused by extra invagination of dental lamina into the ectomesenchyme
most common-mesioden (between maxillary central incisors)
tooth formation is initated by factors residing in which arch?
arch 1 oral epithelium
Determinantes in odontogenesis:
Tooth formation is from the combination of __ and __?
neural crest cells and oral epithelium
Overview of Bud Stage (Differentiation of the Dental Lamina)
- incursions of dental lamina
- condensation of ectomesenchymal tissue
What causes the formation of the bud?
invagination/incursion of the dental lamina into the ectomesenchyme
The bud is tethered to the dental lamina by an extension called?
lateral lamina
what condenses around the epithelial bud?
what is the basement membrane?
- ectomesenchyme=condenses around the bud
- basement membrane seperates the bud from the ectomesenchyme
how many discrete outgrowths (placodes) into the ectomesenchyme would you expect to see for deciduous teeth?
where do the first tooth germs form? second? how do they develop from there?
20
first tooth germs= anterior mandible
second=anterior maxilla
then they develop anteriorly to posteriorly in both jaws
what are tooth buds also called?
dental buds, tooth primordia, or tooth germs
what are some abnormalities involved with the bud stage? (2)
define each abnormality.
microdontia- abnormally small teeth
macrodontia- abnormally large teeth
which teeth are most commonly affected by abnormalities?
1st most- 3rd molar
2nd most- maxillary lateral incisors
