    Abstract:

    The relationship between fetal teeth calcification and gestational age was evaluated in 54 Nigerian newborn chest radiographs. The first deciduous molar was found to calcify at the 33rd week of gestation and the second molar at the 36th week. The pattern of calcification of fetal teeth is no significant difference in teeth calcification between the sexes.

    Teeth

    The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
    In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...
