    11.32   Tooth bud Version française
Section of a tooth bud of a young monkey.

This tooth bud is located in a cavity completely surrounded by the alveolar bone (+).

This field shows the early formation of the crown of the tooth.

The following components are labelled:

  • Enamel organ (*) capping the tooth
  • Basophilic enamel (E)
  • Acidophilic dentin (D)

These three layers partly surround the pale connective tissue of the dental papilla (P).

The root of the tooth is at a very early stage of formation.
