Abstract
The study reveals a lack of histomorphogenesis in New Zealand white rabbit teeth. The teeth development was examined through sequential histological segments in 24 rabbits from prenatal ages (E19, E21, E23, E25, and E28), neonates (E30), and postnatal age (1 week and 2 weeks); (three animal specimens at each age stage). Rabbit teeth first appeared at 19 days of prenatal life (E19) as an ectodermal epithelial thickening on each side of the mouth opening. At E21, the bud of upper incisor tooth appeared as an epithelial bud, which composed of many condensed epithelium cells, was simply identified from the larger with less condensed vestibular lamina, and was surrounded by mesenchymal connective tissue while the lower incisor took the cap stage. At (E23), tooth regular construction is formed from enamel, dentine, and pulp cavity. Peg incisor appearance (supplementary and assistant incisors) is visible at the lingual surface of the upper major incisor. Teeth prenatal development went through successive stages like initiation, bud, cap, late bell, maturation, and crown stages. The first initiation phase of tooth formation was seen as ectodermal epithelial cell collection at (E19). Bud stage saw on upper incisor tooth, while in cap structure in lower incisor teeth at (E19). A cap-formed tooth is composed of the enamel organ and fundamentally dense mesenchymal tissue. Enamel organs are segmented into three distinct layers: the external tooth enamel epithelial, the internal tooth enamel epithelial, and finally the stellate reticular layer. The cement layer covered teeth all around on enamel on both the labial and lingual sides while not contacting the dentine on the lateral side, forming enamel space. Teeth develop consistently all through life; they have expanded enamel thickness; they are diphyodont teeth; they have two continuous dentitions; they are deciduous and perpetual, with long crown teeth and an open root.
期刊介绍：
The journal publishes original research papers, reviews and method papers. While reviews should be designed as comparative surveys, summarizing the current knowledge from an evolutionary perspective, method papers should present new approaches or reviews on methods used in animal morphology. The research papers should be based on morphological investigation of invertebrates and vertebrates at the macroscopic, microscopic and ultrastructural level, including embryological studies.
