AI Article Synopsis
- The dental germs develop their chamber, which applies pressure to a fibrous structure that stretches the circular margin of the bone socket containing the teeth.
- The maxillary structures grow from being small in early life and adapt as they respond to factors like brain growth and dental germs.
- The term "cranio-dental dysharmony" is preferred over "dento-maxillary dysharmony" to describe malformations caused by insufficient space.
Article Abstract
1. As they grow, the dental germs build their chamber, exerting tensions on a fibrillar structure facing their occlusal side or incisive edge. This structure now stretches the circular margin of the alveolus, made of chondroïd tissue. 2. The maxillary bases, of negligible volume during foetal formation and prime infancy, have to be considered as adaptive structures among genetically determined growth factors: brain, basicranium and a number of dental germs. Those factors are the real agents forming the face. 3. In case of malformation due to a lack of space, the wording "cranio-dental dysharmony" seems to be more adequate than "dento-maxillary dysharmony".

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the role of WWP1, a protein ligase, in the enamel development of mice.
- Single-cell RNA sequencing and immunohistochemistry showed that WWP1 is highly expressed in dental epithelial cells, specifically in ameloblasts involved in enamel formation.
- Wwp1 knockout mice displayed significant enamel developmental defects, including reduced enamel volume and disorganized enamel structures compared to control mice.

Background and objective Enamel matrix derivatives (EMD) are biomaterials extracted from porcine dental germs. They consist of amelogenins (90%), ameloblastine, enamelin, and amelotin. New evidence has shown that all these proteins can be absorbed onto hydroxyapatite crystals and collagen fibers on the root surface of teeth and initiate regeneration of root cementum as well as stimulate periodontal cell proliferation.
