Molar incisor hypomineralisation: current knowledge and practice
International Dental Journal, EarlyView., 2020 Background Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common developmental dental condition that presents in childhood. Areas of poorly formed enamel affect one or more first permanent molars and can cause opacities on the anterior teeth. MIH presents a variety of challenges for the dental team as well as functional and social impacts for affected ...

Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2011 Odontogenic tumors comprise a complex group of lesions of diverse histopathological types and clinical behavior. The group of mixed odontogenic tumors, which are also rare, is composed of proliferating odontogenic epithelium in a cellular ectomesenchyme resembling dental papilla. Ameloblastic fibrodentinoma is a rare benign odontogenic tumor.

Modeling ameloblast-matrix interactions using 3D cell culture
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 The distinct morphology adopted by ameloblasts during amelogenesis is highly stage specific and involved intimately with the development of a hierarchical enamel microstructure.

ODONTO: Dental Journal, 2020 Background: Tooth development during the embryonic period is a complex process that needs enough nutrition for the formation of healthy dental tissue. Kallikrein-related peptidase-4 (KLK-4) is a serine proteinase secreted by ameloblast during transition ...

Deciphering the functions of Stromal Interaction Molecule-1 in amelogenesis using AmelX-iCre mice
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Introduction: The intracellular Ca2+ sensor stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is thought to play a critical role in enamel development, as its mutations cause Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI).

4-phenylbutyrate Mitigates Fluoride-Induced Cytotoxicity in ALC Cells
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Chronic fluoride over-exposure during pre-eruptive enamel development can cause dental fluorosis. Severe dental fluorosis is characterized by porous, soft enamel that is vulnerable to erosion and decay.

Energy metabolic shift contributes to the phenotype modulation of maturation stage ameloblasts
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Maturation stage ameloblasts (M-ABs) are responsible for terminal enamel mineralization in teeth and undergo characteristic cyclic changes in both morphology and function between ruffle-ended ameloblasts (RA) and smooth-ended ameloblasts (SA).

Intravesicular Phosphatase PHOSPHO1 Function in Enamel Mineralization and Prism Formation
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 The transport of mineral ions from the enamel organ-associated blood vessels to the developing enamel crystals involves complex cargo packaging and carriage mechanisms across several cell layers, including the ameloblast layer and the stratum intermedium.
