    Study Notes

    Early Embryogenesis: Week 1

    • The inner cell mass congregates on one side, forming the embryonic disk and three embryonic layers.
    • Stem cells migrate throughout the embryo, giving rise to cranial and sensory ganglia, peripheral nerves, and connective tissues in the head, face, and oral cavity.
    • Ectomesenchyme forms specialized connective tissues in the head, face, and oral cavity, such as dentine, pulp, and cementum, but NOT enamel.

    Early Embryogenesis: Week 4

    • The embryo starts to take shape through folds, forming the stomodeum (primitive mouth) and the bucco-pharyngeal membrane.
    • The bucco-pharyngeal membrane separates the primitive mouth from the primitive gut.
    • The bucco-pharyngeal membrane ruptures, allowing communication between the stomodeum and the gut.
    • Bulges called pharyngeal arches (branchial arches) develop, forming the building blocks for face and oral cavity structures.
    • Each pharyngeal arch has its own nerve supply, blood supply, and cartilage.

    Pharyngeal Arches and Derivatives

    • Each arch contributes to specific structures:
      • 1st Arch (Mandibular): Trigeminal nerve, 1st aortic arch blood vessel, muscles of mastication, Merkel’s cartilage, Mandible, Maxilla, Zygomatic bones, Squamous portion of temporal bone, Malleus and Incus of ear.
      • 2nd Arch (Hyoid): Facial nerve, 2nd aortic arch blood vessel, Muscles of facial expression, Reichert’s cartilage, Part of the hyoid bone, Body of hyoid, Styloid process, Stapes.
      • 3rd Arch: Glossopharyngeal nerve, 3rd aortic arch blood vessel, Stylopharyngeal muscle, Connective tissue of the thymus, Inferior parathyroid.
      • 4th Arch: Superior laryngeal branch of the Vagus nerve, 4th aortic arch blood vessel, Laryngeal muscles, Cartilage of the larynx (Thyroid, corniculate, and cuneiform).

    Development of the Face: Week 4-6

    • The face continues to develop in detail with the fusion of prominences:
      • 1x Frontonasal prominence
      • 2x Maxillary prominences
      • 2x Mandibular prominences

    Development of the Primary Palate: Week 6-7

    • The primary palate forms from the fusion of the frontonasal prominence and the medial nasal prominences.
    • The developing tongue occupies the space where the secondary palate will form, hence the primary palate forms first due to limited space.

    Development of the Secondary Palate: Week 7-8

    • The palatine shelves develop and grow around the developing tongue.
    • The palatine shelves fuse together along the midline with the primary palate and the nasal septum as the tongue retracts.
    • The incisive foramen forms at the midline between the secondary and primary palates.

    Development of the Tongue: Week 4-7

    • The tongue develops from the 1st, 2nd, and 4th pharyngeal arches.
      • Anterior 2/3: 2x lateral lingual swellings (1st arch), Tuberculum impar (2nd arch)
      • Posterior 1/3: Copula/hypobranchial eminence.
    • Cellular apoptosis allows the tongue to separate from the floor of the mouth, leaving a frenulum.

    Development of the Alveolar Bone: Week 7

    • The maxilla and mandible jaws undergo ossification, starting in the respective prominences.

    Embryonic Origins

    • Neural crest cells
    • Pharyngeal arches

    Clinical Significance

    • Developmental anomalies can occur due to disruptions in the developmental processes.
    • Example: Cleft lip and palate.
