  2. Enamel organ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enamel_organ

    Tooth development begins at week 6 in utero, in the oral epithelium. The process is divided into three stages: Initiation; Morphogenesis and; Histogenesis [2]; At the end of week 7 i.u., localised proliferations of cells in the dental laminae form round and oval swellings known as tooth buds, which will eventually develop into mesenchymal cells and surround the enamel organ.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_anatomy

    The tooth bud (sometimes called the tooth germ) is an aggregation of cells that eventually forms a tooth and is organized into three parts: the enamel organ, the dental papilla and the dental follicle. [3] The enamel organ is composed of the outer enamel epithelium, inner enamel epithelium, stellate reticulum and stratum intermedium. [3]

  4. Human tooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth

    It is organized into three parts: the enamel organ, the dental papilla and the dental follicle. [27] The enamel organ is composed of the outer enamel epithelium, inner enamel epithelium, stellate reticulum and stratum intermedium. [27] These cells give rise to ameloblasts, which produce enamel and the reduced enamel epithelium.

  5. Universal Numbering System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Numbering_System

    Universal numbering system. This is a dental practitioner view, so tooth number 1, the rear upper tooth on the patient's right, appears on the left of the chart. The Universal Numbering System, sometimes called the "American System", is a dental notation system commonly used in the United States. [1] [2]

  6. Cementoenamel junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementoenamel_junction

    In the tooth bud, regions where enamel formation is completed, the enamel organ gives rise to Hertwig's epithelial root sheath, composed of two epithelial layers derived from the external and internal epithelia. The sheath is irregularly fragmented in time and space as it promotes cementum deposition on the newly formed dentin.

  7. Dental notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_notation

    The FDI World Dental Federation notation ("FDI notation" or "ISO 3950" [1]) is widely used by dental professionals internationally to identify and describe a specific tooth. The FDI notation uses a two-digit numbering system in which the first digit represents a tooth's quadrant and the second digit represents the number of the tooth from the ...

  8. Dental papilla - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_papilla

    The enamel organ → purely the epithelial component; The tissues which have been derived from each of the three components are: The dental follicle → will develop to become the periodontal ligament, the cementum and the alveolar bone; The dental papilla → will develop to become the dental pulp and the dentine; The enamel organ → will ...

  9. Dental follicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_follicle

    A: enamel organ B: dental papilla C: dental follicle. The dental follicle, also known as dental sac, is made up of mesenchymal cells and fibres surrounding the enamel organ and dental papilla of a developing tooth. [1] It is a vascular fibrous sac [2] containing the developing tooth and its odontogenic organ.
