Enameloblast

Enameloblasts (or enameloblastic cells) are cells that are found in the enamel of teeth and are responsible for its formation. They are derivatives of mesenchymal cells and originate from the dental lamina.

Enameloblastic cells are oval in shape and covered with a thin layer of cytoplasm. Inside them are nuclei that contain DNA and RNA. The cells also contain calcium granules, which ensure the strength of the enamel.

The process of enamel formation begins with the migration of enameloblasts into the enamel organ. They then begin to divide and synthesize enamel. They then migrate to the surface of the tooth and form a layer of enamel that protects the tooth from damage.

However, if anameloblastic cells fail to migrate or divide properly, it can lead to the development of various dental diseases such as caries, pulpitis and periodontitis. Therefore, it is important to monitor your dental health and visit the dentist regularly for preventive examinations.



Enameloblastoma Enameloblastoma is an epithelial neoplasm of the small intestine. Occurs with a frequency of approximately 2%.

**Definition** enameloblasts are single-celled tumors located in the area of ​​lymphoid infiltration of the small intestine or separated in pairs by a strip of fibrous tissue.

A distinctive feature of enamelomas is their ability to produce hydroxamic acids, which explains the characteristic yellowish color of normal tooth enamel. Noting the pathological transformation of these cells, Mortimer Crook stated: “The yellow color
