| As mottled enamel is the result of partial failure of ameloblasts to properly elaborate and lay down enamel, it is a developmental injury. |
|
| As the odontoblasts express BMP, it induces ameloblasts to differentiate. |
|
| Ameloblasts are cells present during tooth development that secrete large amounts of proteins that later mineralize to form tooth enamel. |
|
| Ameloblasts are responsible for the formation of enamel, depositing it in rings around the tooth crown beginning at the coronal surface and proceeding to the cervical region. |
