Uberon definition : The stratum intermedium in a developing tooth is a layer of two or three cells between
the inner enamel epithelium and the newly forming cells of the stellate reticulum.
It first appears during the early bell stage of tooth development, at around the 14th
week of intrauterine life (in humans). The stratum intermedium has a notably high
alkaline phosphatase activity. This layer, along with the inner enamel epithelium,
is responsible for the tooth enamel formation. It is a part of the dental (enamel)
organ.;
