Abstract
ALBERTI VAZQUEZ, Lizette; MAS SARABIA, Maheli; MARTINEZ PADILLA, Silvia and MENDEZ MARTINEZ, María Josefina. Histogenesis of the dental enamel. General considerations. AMC [online]. 2007, vol.11, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1025-0255.
A scientific updating about the process of formation of the dental enamel was carried out to describe its main events and to analyze the functional relation between some proteins and this process. The dental enamel is formed in the enamel germ of the dental germ and the productive cells of this tissue are the ameloblasts. During the formation of the tissue, the coats of organ and the ameloblasts suffer modifications that guarantee the vascular contribute to the organ, the deposition of the organic substance and its subsequent mineralization where the proteins amelogenin, enalemin, ameloblastin and the type X collagen, intervene.
Keywords : dental enamel [anatomy]; histology.
