    Study Notes

    Early Embryonic Development

    • Three germ layers form during embryonic development:
      • Ectoderm (outer) forms skin, hair, nails, enamel, and neural tissue
      • Endoderm (inner) forms specialized organs like liver, respiratory, and digestive systems
      • Mesoderm (middle) forms muscles, blood, bone, and connective tissues
    • The three germ layers are responsible for forming all tissues and organs in the body
    • Interruptions during weeks 3-4 can have significant impacts on neurodevelopment

    Neural Crest Cells

    • Neural crest cells are formed from the neuroectoderm layer and are crucial for the development of the head, face, and oral cavity
    • They migrate throughout the embryo and differentiate into various cell types, including:
      • Cranial and sensory ganglia
      • Peripheral nervous system
      • Connective tissue in the head, face, and oral cavity
      • Dentin, pulp, and cementum (but not enamel)
      • Stem cells

    Week 4 Embryonic Development

    • The embryo begins to take shape with the formation of:
      • Stomodeum (primitive mouth): the early mouth
      • Bucco-pharyngeal membrane: separates the mouth from the primitive gut
      • Primitive gut: the precursor to the digestive tract.
    • The bucco-pharyngeal membrane breaks down, allowing communication between the stomodeum and gut.
    • Pharyngeal Arches (Branchial Arches) develop as bulges on the embryo.
      • Each pharyngeal arch has its own nerve supply, blood supply, and cartilage, which contribute to the formation of facial and oral cavity structures.

    Development of the Head, Face, and Oral Cavity (Weeks 5-8)

    • The face develops from the fusion of five facial prominences:
      • One frontonasal prominence
      • Two maxillary prominences
      • Two mandibular prominences

    Development of the Primary Palate (Weeks 6-7)

    • The palate develops in two parts:
      • The primary palate forms from the fusion of the frontonasal prominence and medial nasal prominences.
    • Each jaw develops:
      • Neural and alveolar portions to support teeth during development
      • Secondary cartilage to support bone growth throughout life.

    Development of the Skull

    • The skull develops in three sections:
      • Cranial vault (brain case)
      • Cranial base
      • Facial bones
    • Skull bones are derived from neural crest cells and mesoderm.
    • The cranial vault bones do not fully fuse until 6-7 years old to allow for brain growth.

    Fetal Development (Week 9 - Birth)

    • After the first eight weeks of development, the fetal development phase begins, focusing on growth.
    • Structures formed during the embryonic phase continue to develop and mature.

    Developmental Anomalies and Defects

    • Embryogenesis is a complex and delicate process that can be susceptible to disruptions, leading to developmental anomalies.
    • These anomalies can impact an individual's health and quality of life.
