Study Notes
Stages of Tooth Development and the Role of Dental Tissues
- Dental lamina induces the formation of tooth buds and early enamel organs.
- Each jaw has ten locations where tooth buds are induced by ectomesenchyme cells.
- Primary teeth form from the successional dental lamina, while permanent molars have their own dental lamina.
- The bud stage is characterized by the development of the enamel organ and the initiation of tooth buds.
- Interruption in the bud stage can result in congenital absence of teeth.
- The cap stage involves the morphodifferentiation and cytodifferentiation of the enamel organ.
- Ectomesenchyme cells condense around the developing cap, forming the dental papilla and dental sac.
- The enamel organ is derived from oral epithelium and is responsible for shaping the crown and inducing dentin formation.
- The dental papilla, derived from ectomesenchyme, forms the dentin and pulp of the tooth and determines the type of tooth.
- The dental sac, also derived from ectomesenchyme, forms the cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone.
- The outer enamel epithelium provides protection and is associated with the capillary plexus.
- The inner enamel epithelium differentiates into ameloblasts, initiates dentin formation, and forms the enamel knot.
