Malformations and anomalies of the branchial arches - Diagnosis and management

The branchial or pharyngeal arches are slits that are located on both sides of the embryo, and from them originate the muscles, bones, cartilage and nerves of the face, head and neck.

During the process of growth and development of tissues, alterations may occur that lead to sinuses, fistulas or cysts. The location of the alteration determines which branchial arch it belongs to.

Formation and development of the face and oral cavity (Orofacial Complex)

The formation and development of the face and oral cavity begins in the first branchial arch in the fourth week of intrauterine life. During this process the stomodeum is formed, which is considered the primitive mouth of the embryo.

The formation of the face starts from the five prominences (one frontonasal, two maxillary and two mandibular). The prominences develop giving rise to different regions of the face.

Nolla's Stages of Tooth Development - Video

Dr. Nolla in 1960 conducted a study to determine the development and maturation of permanent teeth. To perform this classification, the use of an X-ray is necessary.

The Nolla classification establishes values for tooth formation and development from the presence of the crypt to apical closure.

It is approximately in the eighth week that the germs of the primary teeth are formed. Primary teeth begin to erupt at approximately 6 months and end at 31 months.

Development of tooth (Odontogenesis) Part I - II

The development of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is the process by which not only teeth are formed, but also the supporting tissues, the jaws, and the circulatory and nervous systems of the oral cavity.

Cells are derived from the ectoderm that give rise to the dental germ and 3 parts are identified: enamel organ, dental papilla and dental follicle. This process begins between the sixth and eighth week of prenatal development.
