3. Stellate Reticulum
4. External Enamel Epithelium
What shape are ameloblasts?
What triggers ameloblast differentiation?
What occurs in the early stages of amelogenesis? (5)
What closes gaps between cells so matrix secretion does not go in between?
How long does secretion last for? What about mineralisation?
Are matrix proteins collagenous?
What is the primary protein secreted by ameloblasts? How does it aid mineralisation?
How do globular proteins (amelogenins) contribute to the shape of the enamel prism?
What are Nonamelogenins?
What do they do?
What are examples?
What direction do crystals grow in relation to the secreting surface of Tome's Process?
What controls prismatic enamel growth? What 3 things do they do?
How do crystal change throughout the amelogenesis process?
What occurs during the maturation phase of amelogenesis?
What is the difference between ruffle ended ameloblasts and smooth ended ameloblasts?
Which enzyme takes up/degrades protein in ameloblasts? If this fails to occur what happens?
What is a clinical implication of aprismatic enamel present in some areas of teeth?
How to remedy this?
What is a clinical consideration when cutting cavities?
