Dental papilla
The dental papilla is a condensation of ectomesenchymal cells called odontoblasts, seen in histologic sections of a developing tooth. It lies below a cellular known as the enamel organ. The dental papilla appears after 8-10 weeks  uteral life. The dental papilla gives rise to the dentin and pulp of a tooth.
