Human Developmental Overview
- week 6 odontogenesis begins
- tooth bud
- 2 sets of teeth
- deciduous and permanent
- 20 deciduous teeth
- 32 permanent teeth
- differential rates of growth
- shed at different times over 20 year period
- ectoderm, mesoderm and neural crest mesenchyme contribute
- inductive influence of neural crest with overlying ectoderm
Tooth Development
- odontoblasts
- form predentin
- calcifies to form dentin
- ameloblasts
- produce enamal
- tooth growth occurs in ossifying jaws
- periodontal ligament holds tooth in bone socket
Teeth Postnatal

Tooth Types
Incisors - sharp cutting edge, adapted for biting the food.
Canines - are larger and stronger than the incisors. The upper canines have also been called the "eye teeth", while the lower canines "stomach teeth".
Premolars - or Bicuspid teeth are smaller and shorter than the canines.
Molars - are the largest teeth adapted for grinding and pounding food.
Human Tooth Pattern
| File:Deciduousteeth.jpg | Deciduous teeth (20): four incisors, two canines, and four molars, in each jaw. |
|
Permanent teeth (32): four incisors, two canines, four premolars, and six molars, in each jaw. |
Tooth Stages
There are 4 morphological stages describing early tooth development: bud, cap, bell, and terminal differentiation.
bud

terminal differentiation
Tooth Cells
Ameloblasts - Pre-ameloblasts differentiate from the inner enamel epithelium. Cells secrete enamel
Cementoblasts
Odontoblasts - neural crest-derived mesenchymal cells which differentiate under the influence of the enamel epithelium. Cells secrete dentin.
Epithelial Mesenchymal Interaction
- local ectodermal thickening expresses several signaling molecules
- these in turn signal to the underlying mesenchyme triggering mesenchymal condensation
(epithelially expressed Bmp4 induces Msx1 and Lef1 as well as itself in the underlying mesenchyme)
Four epithelial signaling molecules, Bmp2, Shh, Wnt10a, and Wnt10b, in the early inductive cascade, each signal has a distinct molecular action on the jaw mesenchyme.
Mouse (E11.0 and E12.0) - all four genes are specifically expressed in the epithelium.
Shh and Wnt10b induce general Hedgehog and Wnt targets, Ptc and Gli for Shh and Lef1 for Wnt10b,
Bmp2 is able to induce tooth-specific expression of Msx1.

Periodontal Ligament (PDL)
The tooth is not anchored directly onto its bony socket (alveolar bone) but held in place by the periodontal ligament (PDL), a specialized connective tissue structure that surrounds the tooth root coating of cementum.
The additional roles of the PDL are to also act as; a shock absorber, transmitter of chewing forces (from tooth to bone), sensory information (heat, cold, pressure and pain).
The collagen fiber bundles within the ligament are called "Sharpey’s fibres".
Cementum (from investing layer of the dental follicle) is contiguous layer with the periodontal ligament on one surface and firmly adherent to dentine on the other surface.

Molecular Tooth Development
More than 300 genes have been associated with tooth development including: BMP4, FGF8, MSX1, MSX2, PAX9, PITX2, SHOX2, Delta/Notch, Hox-8, Runx2
Most recent review in Developmental Dynamics by Lin D, Huang Y, He F, Gu S, Zhang G, Chen Y, Zhang Y. Expression survey of genes critical for tooth development in the human embryonic tooth germ. Dev Dyn. 2007 Mar 29.
Amelogenin - abundant protein secreted by ameloblasts which is a major component of tooth enamel.
The papers below are from UNSW Embryology (version 3), information requires updating.
Bone Morphogenic Protein (BMP) / Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF)
Growth factors in the BMP- and FGF-families are expressed in dental epithelium during initiation of tooth development and their effects on the underlying mesenchyme mimic those of the epithelium. They upregulate the expression of many genes, including the homeobox-containing Msx-1 and Msx-2, and stimulate cell proliferation suggesting that they may act as epithelial signals transmitting epithelial-mesenchymal interactions. During subsequent morphogenesis, when the characteristic shapes of individual teeth develop as a result from folding of the dental epithelium, several signal molecules including Sonic hedgehog, Bmps-2, 4, 7 and Fgf-4 are expressed specifically in restricted and transient epithelial cell clusters, called enamel knots.

Delta/Notch
The expression pattern of Delta 1 in ameloblasts and odontoblasts is complementary to Notch1, Notch2, and Notch3 expression in adjacent epithelial and mesenchymal cells. Notch1 and Notch2 are upregulated in explants of dental mesenchyme adjacent to implanted cells expressing Delta1, suggesting that feedback regulation by Delta-Notch signaling ensures the spatial segregation of Notch receptors and ligands. TGF1 and BMPs induce Delta1 expression in dental mesenchyme explants at the stage at which Delta1 is upregulated in vivo, but not at earlier stages. In contrast to the Notch family receptors and their ligand Jagged1, expression of Delta1 in the tooth germ is not affected by epithelial-mesenchymal interactions, showing that the Notch receptors and their two ligands Jagged1 and Delta1 are subject to different regulations.

Abnormalities
adontia - total lack of tooth development.
amelogenesis imperfecta - abnormal tooth enamel formation (AMELX, ENAM, KLK4, MMP20).
dentinogenesis imperfecta - discoloured teeth with an opalescent sheen, dentin does not support enamel (dentin sialophosphoprotein mutation)
dens evaginatus - dental anomaly mainly affecting premolars in people of Mongolian origin.
hypodontia - lack of development of one or more teeth.
hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia - maldevelopment of one or more ectodermal-derived tissues.
microdontia - small teeth.
