Cementum anchors teeth to bone via the (a)   .

Cementum gets nutrition from the:

(a)  

_________ cementum forms first. At least one layer of the ________ cementum covers the entire outer surface of each root .

(a)  

(a)   cementum forms throughout life, and is deposited mainly in the apical 1/3 of each root.

What % of people have a pattern that has a gap at the CEJ? These patients will experience sensitivities.

(a)  

This is the excessive production of cellular cementum, which mainly occurs at the apex or apices of the tooth.

(a)  

(a)   are mineralized spherical bodies of cementum found either attached to the cemental root surface or lying free in the PDL.

The (a)   fiber group is the 1st lost to periodontal disease. It is attached to cementum just below the CEJ, and runs inferior and outward direction to insert into alveolar crest.

Function: resist tilting, intrusive, extrusive, and rotational forces

The (a)   fiber group is located apically to the alveolar crest group and runs perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth.

Function: Stabilizes tipping forces which work to force the tooth to tip M, D, L, F, and to resist rotational forces.

The (a)   fiber group makes up the bulk of the fibers around the roots, and runs in an oblique direction to insert into alveolar bone more coronally.

Function: resist inward + rotational forces.

The (a)   fiber group radiates from cementum around the root apex to surrounding alveolar bone proper, forming base of the alveolus.

Function: resist upward/extrusive + rotational forces

The (a)   fiber group runs from the cementum of one root to cementum of other roots. No bony attachment.

Function: rotational, tilting, lateral forces

Another principal fiber other than the alveolodental ligament is the (a)   ligament. It inserts mesiodistally into the cervical cementum of neighboring teeth, at a height coronal to the alveolar crest of the ABP and apical to the base of the JE.

The (a)   ligament is a cementum to cementum attachment connecting all the teeth of the arch.

The function of this ligament is to resist rotational forces and hold the teeth in interproximal contact.

What type of bone has the patient lost between the roots of the molars?

What fiber group of the periodontal ligament was the first group to be affected by periodontal disease in this patient?

(a)  

The (a)   ligament is missing here.

Which cell population has been active in removing the alveolar bone in the patient?

(a)   fibers are very strong collagen fibers from the PDL that are partially inserted into the outer surface of cementum at 90 degrees. They are inserted on the other end into the alveolar process.

Cementum is a hard tissue that is thickest at the tooth's apex or apices and in the interradicular areas of multirooted teeth and thinnest at the (a)   .

The (a)   cementum, also called primary cementum, consists of the 1st layers of cementum deposited at the DEJ, and contains no embedded cementocytes.

The (a)   cementum, also called secondary cementum, is deposited later than primary type and many embedded cementocytes are found within it.

The (a)   is the most cervical rim of the alveolar bone proper.
