Two stages of amelogenesis
-full thickness of enamel matrix is laid down by secretory ameloblasts, and 30% mineralized
-Once the matrix formation is complete, secretory ameloblasts differentiate into maturation-phase ameloblasts which complete mineralization (to 96%)
Tome's Process (2)
-at secretory end of ameloblast
-responsible for orientation of enamel crystals (in rod, interrod substance)
List the specialized proteins found in the enamel matrix (6)
-amelogenins (90%)
-ameloblastins (sheathelin, amelin)
-tuftelin
-enamelins
-serum proteins
-serine and metalloproteinases
What is the main protein in enamel matrix
what %
MW
properties (1)
AA's
function
-amelogenins
-90%
-20-30 kDa
-hydrophobic
-rich in proline, hist, glutamine
-reg crystal growth, location
enamel hypoplasia
-defects in amount of matrix formed
enamel hypomaturation
-defects in amount of mineral
bioapatite
-highly substituted calcium hydroxyapatite
Hydroxyapatite:
formula
- Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2
Substitution of _____ for ____ increases acid resistance.

Sub of ____ for ____ increases acid solubility of enamel crystal
- F- for OH-

- CO3^-2 for OH- or PO4^-3
odontoblasts secrete
-collagen-rich organic matrix
what reg's tooth(?) mineralization
-matured organic matrix of odontoblasts
Contents of Predentin (dentin matrix)(5)
-Collagen type I
-dentin phosphoprotein
-proteoglycans
-osteocalcin, osteonectin, osteopontin
-matrix gla-protein
genetic defects in dentin matrix lead to _____
-dentinogenesis imperfecta
primary dentin (3, incl types (2))
-first, mantle dentin
-then, circumpulpal dentin
-4 (?) formed/day
2ndary dentin (3)
-begins after root completion
-much slower than primary
-continues throughout life
tertiary dentin (3)
-response to injury
-irregular appearance
-2 types:
---reactive dentin
---reparative dentin
Types of tertiary dentin
-reactive dentin:
--formed by odontoblasts

-reparative dentin:
--formed by mesenchymal cells which differentiate into odontoblasts
epithelial root sheath (3)
-inner/outer enamel epithelia
-NO stratum intermedium, stellate reticulum
-regs root # and form
interaction btw _____ and _____ induces formation of root dentin
-inner enamel epithelial cell
-dental papilla
disruption of ________ allows dental follicle cells to interact w/ dentin
-root sheath
dental follicle cells diff into ________
-cementoblasts
Intermediate cementum (4)
-hyaline layer
-neither true cementum nor true dentin
-interface btw dentin and cementum
-characterized by interdigitation of collagen fibers (from cementum/dentin matrices)
