REVIEW
Development of the vestigial tooth primordia as part of mouse odontogenesis.
The mouse functional dentition comprises one incisor separated from three molars by a toothless diastema in each dental quadrant. Between the incisor and molars, the embryonic tooth pattern also includes vestigial dental primordia, which undergo regression involving apoptosis in their epithelium. Apoptosis appears to play an important role in achieving the specific tooth pattern in the mouse. We documented similarities in the folding mechanism allowing the formation of the dental lamina in mice as well as in reptiles. While further budding on this dental lamina gives rise to many individual simple tooth primordia in crocodiles and lizards, budding morphogenesis of several simple tooth primordia appears to be integrated in the mouse, giving rise to enamel organs of a complex nature. The differentiation of a mammalian tooth germ during both ontogeny and phylogeny might thus include the concrescence (connation) of more primordia, putatively corresponding to simple teeth in mammalian ancestors.
