ENAMEL KNOT = for molars in late cap stage ‘Centre that releases genes controlling cuspal development’ BELL STAGE Week 14 - 16 (Early bell stage) 2 main markers: 1. Dental lamina degeneration begins 2. 4 distinct layers - SR - EEE - IEE - Stratum intermedium Cervical loop involved in root formation Week 17 – 18? (Late bell stage) Permanent tooth germs For 1 – 5 = lingual down growth of EEE For 6 – 8 = posterior extension of EEE Accessional lamina = Not preceded by a tooth (i.e. 6, 7, 8) Successional lamina = precedes another tooth (i.e. 1 – 5 in normal development) Oral epithelium Dental lamina Stellate reticulum Successional lamina (permanent tooth germ) AMELOGENESIS 1. PRE-SECRETORY STAGE Reciprocal induction • Pre-ameloblasts in IEE begin differentiating into ameloblasts • Pre-ameloblasts release growth factors induce ectomesenchyme in dental papilla to begin differentiating into odontoblasts • Ameloblasts in contact with pre-dentine matrix being secreting enamel matrix Begins at cusp tip 2. SECRETORY STAGE What are perikymata? 3. TRANSITION STAGE • Ameloblast apoptosis (~50% die) 4. MATURATION STAGE • Enamel matrix proteins degraded by serine proteases • Water and degraded protein out • Calcium, phosphate and carbonate ions in 5. POST-MATURATION STAGE • Ameloblasts flatten and merge with everything above it = reduced enamel epithelium • Enamel mineralisation/maturation completed via demin and remin after birth 1 2 5 3 4 DENTINOGENESIS 1. ODONTOBLAST DIFFERENTIATION • Reciprocal induction 2. DENTINE MATRIX DEPOSITION Predentine • Collagen I (a bit of III initially) • Dentine phosphoprotein • Other organic products, etc, etc 3. MINERALISATION • Lags behind matrix deposition (hence pre-dentine) • Matrix deposited onto type I collagen framework controlled by DPP 4. SECONDARY DENTINE • Laid down throughout life through same mechanism as primary dentine • Has tubular structure = intratubular dentine Intratubular (peritubular) vs intertubular? 5. TERTIARY DENTINE • Depends on severity of injury Reactionary - Odontoblasts not dead secretes irregular/wavy tubular dentine Reparative - Odontoblasts die = newly differentiated odontoblasts secrete atubular dentine (known is osteodentin) .
