Embryology

1) Describe how inductions between the ectodermal and medodermal tissues are a critical part of the production of the different dental tissues

2) Where do you find the basement membrane in a developing tooth, and what future dental feature will it become

3)Differentiate between the embryonic development of the primary and secondary palates. then discuss what parts of oral cavity these two palates gives rise to.

4)Describe what occurs during the cap stage, and what dental anomalies may occur here

5) Describe what occurs during the apposition stage and what dental anomalies may occur here

  1. 2) The basement membrane is located between the enamel organ and the dental papilla. It is the site of the future dentinoenamel junction.

  3. question; what dental anomalies occur during the cap stage?

    but otherwise for qu 4, third stage of odontogenesis which is characterised by the formation of the TOOTH GERM from the dental sac, dental papilla and enamel organ.
    the succcedaneous permanent tooth also becomes present as a lingual extension to the developing primary tooth
