Deletion of Slc26a1 and Slc26a7 Delays Enamel Mineralization in Mice
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Amelogenesis features two major developmental stages—secretory and maturation. During maturation stage, hydroxyapatite deposition and matrix turnover require delicate pH regulatory mechanisms mediated by multiple ion transporters.

Deletion of ameloblastin exon 6 is associated with amelogenesis imperfecta [PDF]
, 2014 Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) describes a heterogeneous group of inherited dental enamel defects reflecting failure of normal amelogenesis. Ameloblastin (AMBN) is the second most abundant enamel matrix protein expressed during amelogenesis.

Functional role of inorganic trace elements on enamel and dentin formation: A review
Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2021 Calcium and phosphate are the major components of hydroxyapatite crystals that form the inorganic portion of the teeth. Apart from these, certain elements are present in little amounts in enamel and dentin of the human teeth.

Pathogenesis of dental fluorosis: biochemical and cellular mechanisms
Revista Facultad de Odontología Universidad de Antioquia, 2017 The mechanisms involved in the development of dental fluorosis are still unknown. The development of in vivo and in vitro models using biologically relevant concentrations of fluoride for the emergence of fluorosis has allowed suggesting hypotheses that ...
