Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Mandibular first molars from 17-d-old mouse embryos were cultured in vitro for 2 to 4 d by a simple, disposable, improved floatation method. This method consisted of using a 24-well multidish and a plastic culture chamber with a membrane filter. The improved floatation method, as well as our previous method, was capable of the three-dimensional development of tooth germs. Cytodifferentiation of odontoblasts and ameloblasts and formation of extracellular matrices were accelerated by the present culture system, in comparison with our previous method. All the molars cultivated by this method were very similar in morphology to in vivo. On Day 2 of culture the terminal cytodifferentiation of odontoblasts and the formation of predentin were ascertained in the bucco-lingual sections of the cultured molars. A thick layer of predentin was formed at the tip of the cusp and gradually decreased toward the cervical loop and the fissure between the buccal and ligual cusps. On Day 4 in vitro, secretory ameloblasts produced enamel matrix, and the mineralized enamel showed prismatic structure very similar to that in vivo. Dentin and predentin also were normal in ultrastructure. The extracellular matrices (enamel, dentine, and predentin) were formed in line with the pattern of the cusp and the formation of matrices normally started at the tip of the cusp. We conclude that the three-dimensional development of whole tooth germs in vitro may be very important for normal expression of the developmental program intrinsic to mouse embryonic molars. © 1989 Tissue Culture Association, Inc.
