Amelogenesis

Amelogenesis is the process of formation and development of teeth in humans and other mammals, during which the formation of enamel and dentin occurs. Enamel is the outer covering of a tooth that protects it from damage and provides protection against bacteria and other microorganisms. Dentin is the internal structure of the tooth, which consists of dentinoblasts - cells that are responsible for the formation and development of the tooth.

The process of amelogenesis begins with the division of cells called odontoblasts, which are found in the pulp of the tooth. These cells begin to produce proteins and minerals that form the basis for future enamel. Then the formation of the enamel organ occurs, which consists of several layers of cells called enamel cells.

The enamel organ begins to produce enamel, which gradually forms and hardens. This process can take several months and depends on many factors, such as the person's age, nutrition and overall health of the body.

Once the enamel is formed, it begins to harden and becomes strong and resistant to damage. However, it takes several more months for the enamel to be fully formed and ready for use.

Amelogenesis is a complex process that requires the interaction of many different cells and factors. It is also influenced by genetic factors and can be affected by various diseases and developmental disorders.

Thus, amelogenesis is an important process that occurs in the human body and ensures the formation and development of teeth. It requires the interaction of many cells and factors, and can be subject to various disorders.

In the body of every person, skin and teeth cells are constantly renewed. But not everyone knows that the development of our teeth begins in the womb.

Before birth, the child must receive a sufficient amount of substances from the mother’s body in order for its bone tissue to form and develop. A complex process of adaptation to life is underway: the need for calcium, phosphorus, fluoride, vitamins and other nutrients is distributed throughout all organs and tissues of the newborn. The mother saves a reserve of everything she needs in case of pregnancy, but it may later become depleted.

Already in the seventh week of pregnancy, the formation of a tooth germ begins to occur. As a rule, the maturation of this process is completed by seven months of pregnancy. Consequently, the fetal dental tissue has time to form by the time the child is born. In this case, the newborn’s teeth are not laid down sequentially, starting from the central ones, but are evenly distributed along
