Folding of outer enamel epithelium around capillaries to allow for blood supply - as the layer of enamel formed from the IEE means it cannot access blood supply from the dental papilla

  1. What is circled?

  2. What could the white space be?

  1. Enamel prisms

  2. Enamel which has completely dissolved, so no staining as there is no matrix

  1. Odontoblasts (which form dentine inwards)

  2. IEE (which forms enamel outwards)

  1. Dental papilla

  2. Dentine - purple dots are the odontoblast processes of dentinal tubules

  3. Enamel

  4. Ameloblasts

  5. IEE

  6. OEE

  7. Successional lamina

16
New cards

  1. What is the IEE continuous with?

  2. Why is this?

  1. The ameloblasts at the enamel surface

  2. The IEE forms the IJE, by fusing with the OEE to form the REE, then the IJE as the tooth erupts

Give the timeline of tooth development

6 weeks - thickening of epithelium (primary epithelial band)

7 weeks - primary epithelial band splits into dental and vestibular lamina

8 weeks - tooth germ starts to form (bud stage)

9 weeks - cap stage

12 weeks - vestibular lamina formed

14 weeks - bell stage, dentinogenesis starts following breakdown of the dental lamina - cell nests and cell rests from this = cystic potential

HERS forms once crown of the tooth has been formed and root dentinogenesis has started.
