T he molecular biology revolution of the latter part of this century has affected all areas of biomedical research. Thus, in dental research, the tools of this revolution can now be used to establish what the molecular signals are that initiate tooth eruption. Answering the question of what molecule(s) signal a semi-hard object, the tooth, to escape from its bony crypt is not only an intriguing molecular and developmental biology question but also a question of clinical significance. Knowing what molecules are required to initiate normal tooth eruption would be of enormous benefit in devising a molecular approach to stimulating eruption of impacted teeth. Equally significant, knowledge of the role of these molecules in bone resorption will be acquired because bone resorption is required for eruption (e.g., see Sundquist and Marks, 1994; Marks et al., 1995). Before one can establish the molecular basis of tooth eruption, one must first know what cells and tissues are required for eruption-i.e., upon what tissue(s) are the signaling molecule(s) required to act? In what chronological period of development does the signaling occur? Thanks to the pioneering experiments of Marks and Cahill, it was established that, in teeth of limited eruption, a tissue required for eruption is the dental follicle, a loose connective tissue sac that surrounds the tooth prior to eruption. Their studies showed that surgical removal of the follicle prevents eruption (Cahill and Marks, 1980), whereas leaving the follicle intact but substituting an inert object for the tooth results in eruption of the inert object (Marks and Cahill, 1984). At the cellular level, there is an influx of mononuclear cells (monocytes) into the dental follicle, beginning at 14 weeks post-natally in the dog 3rd premolar, and this influx peaks at 16 weeks, which is the onset of
