  2. Tooth eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_eruption

    Non-eruption of non-ankylosed teeth occurs due to an eruption mechanism that has failed leading to a posterior unilateral/bilateral open bite. [28] Infra occlusion is the primary hallmark of PFE. Primary teeth are most commonly affected and normally all teeth distal to the most mesially affected tooth will show characteristics of this disease.

  3. Posselt's envelope of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posselt's_Envelope_of_Motion

    The tongue, cheeks and lips contribute to the development of ICP by guiding the eruption of the upper and lower teeth and stabilising their positions. [9] Though it may seem automatic that an individual goes from a rest position to ICP, this path of closure is actually a learnt behaviour that is conditioned into short term memory .

  4. Intraosseous eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraosseous_eruption

    Intraosseous eruption is a stage of tooth eruption that directly precedes the baby tooth emerging from the gums. This stage involves the formation of root of a tooth which allows the tooth to erupt from the bone. It precedes the supraosseous eruption phase which consists of infragingival eruption and supragingival eruption.

  5. Failure of eruption of teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_of_eruption_of_teeth

    Failure of eruption of teeth happens when a single or multiple teeth fail to erupt in the mouth. This can happen due to many reasons which may include obstruction from primary teeth, bone surrounding the unerupted tooth or other mechanical factors. The two types of failure of eruption are primary failure of eruption and mechanical failure of ...

  6. Reduced enamel epithelium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_enamel_epithelium

    As the cells of the reduced enamel epithelium degenerate, the tooth is revealed progressively with its eruption into the mouth. The degeneration of reduced enamel epithelium also mediates the initial epithelial attachment to the tooth, which is called the junctional epithelium. The reduced enamel epithelium consist of: Inner enamel epithelium

  7. Cementogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementogenesis

    In animal tooth development, cementogenesis is the formation of cementum, one of the three mineralized substances of a tooth.Cementum covers the roots of teeth and serves to anchor gingival and periodontal fibers of the periodontal ligament by the fibers to the alveolar bone (some types of cementum may also form on the surface of the enamel of the crown at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ)).

  8. Human tooth development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth_development

    Although tooth eruption occurs at different times for different people, a general eruption timeline exists. Typically, humans have 20 primary (baby) teeth and 32 permanent teeth. [43] Tooth eruption has three stages. The first, known as deciduous dentition stage, occurs when only primary teeth are visible. Once the first permanent tooth erupts ...

  9. Ameloblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ameloblast

    The cells are part of the reduced enamel epithelium after enamel maturation and then subsequently undergo apoptosis before or after tooth eruption. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] : 103 These stages occur during the third and final stage of amelogenesis , called the maturation phase.
