Tooth eruption Flashcards
1
Q
the coronal follical produces what factors that regulate osteoclasts and promote bone resorprtion
A
monocyte precursors are recruited by:
- CSF-1
- MCP-1
fusion of monocytes to form osteoclasts are promoted by RANK and RANKL
2
Q
What factor does the apical follicle promote bone resorption?
A
BMP-2
3
Q
what feature of the epithelium leads to a bloodless eruption pathway
A
the reduced enamel epithelium fusing with the oral epithelium
4
Q
primary teeth are resorbed by what?
A
odontoclasts
- multinucleated osteaoclast like cells
- derived from monocytes
