|
|
preameloblasts have two distinct roles in odontogenesis. What are they?
|
1. they induce the Outer cells of the dental papilla to differentiate into odontoblasts 2.then the preameloblasts differentiate into ameloblasts

|
Which cells begin their roles first? Odontoblasts or Ameloblasts?
|
Odontoblasts
|
|
What must occur for the preameloblasts to differentiate into ameloblasts?
|
The basement membrane between the preameloblasts and the odontoblasts must disintegrate and the contact between them now is what induces the change
|
|

The apposition of predentin (or dentin matrix)
|
|
What is amelogenesis?
|
The apposition of enamel matrix
