dental lamina (ectoderm)

dental lamina

narrow band of thickened oral epithelium that extends along the oclussal borders of the mandible and maxilla




on line where teeth will later appear




grows down into underlying mesenchyme

steps of tooth development

10 knobs of epithelial cells are formed on the dental lamina in each arch




knobs grow deeper into underlying mesenchyme




knobs become early enamel organs




enlarges and acquires the shape of a cap




by 8th week cap is seen in enamel organs of deciduous incisor tooth germs




the mesenchyme inside the cap undergoes differentiation and becomes the dental papilla




connective tissue beneath the dental papilla becomes fibrous and encircles the papilla and part of the enamel organ forming the dental sac




cap shaped enamel organ (tooth germ) develops and become bell shaped




cuboidal cells of inner enamel epithelium elongate into columnar cells- ameloblasts




peripheral cells of dental papilla take on columnar shape- odontoblasts
