  2. Dental lamina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_lamina

    The dental lamina is a band of epithelial tissue seen in histologic sections of a developing tooth. [1] [2] The dental lamina is first evidence of tooth development and begins (in humans) at the sixth week in utero or three weeks after the rupture of the buccopharyngeal membrane. It is formed when cells of the oral ectoderm proliferate faster ...

    The other dominant hypothesis, the "clone model", proposes that the epithelium programs a group of ectomesenchymal cells to generate teeth of particular shapes. This group of cells, called a clone, coaxes the dental lamina into tooth development, causing a tooth bud to form. Growth of the dental lamina continues in an area called the "progress ...

  4. Gingival cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gingival_cyst

    Gingival cyst, also known as Epstein's pearl, is a type of cysts of the jaws that originates from the dental lamina and is found in the mouth parts. It is a superficial cyst in the alveolar mucosa . It can be seen inside the mouth as small and whitish bulge.

  5. Enamel organ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enamel_organ

    This is the initial stage of tooth development, which occurs at week 8 i.u.. Proliferation of dental lamina occurs, forming small tooth buds which are spherical or ovoid condensations of epithelial cells, now known as the enamel organ. [1] The enamel organ consists of peripherally located, low columnar cells and centrally located polygonal cells.

  6. Reduced enamel epithelium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_enamel_epithelium

    The reduced enamel epithelium, sometimes called reduced dental epithelium, overlies a developing tooth and is formed by two layers: a layer of ameloblast cells and the adjacent layer of cuboidal cells (outer enamel epithelium) from the dental lamina.

  7. Dental papilla - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_papilla

    Also during the cap stage is the formation of a depression within the deepest part of each tooth bud of the dental lamina. The dental lamina is a band of epithelial tissue which connects the developing tooth bud to the oral epithelium. The dental lamina eventually disintegrates into small clusters of epithelium and is reabsorbed. The dental ...
