which 3 impt structures are all connective tissue?

cement, PL, alveolar bone

Why is cement of particular interest?

role in caries, periodontal disease, tooth movement, it can repair root

3 diff ways cement can meet enamel?

OVERLAP- 60 PERCENT
MEET and fuse- 30%
Gap- dentin is exposed

where is mose cement deposited

APICALLY- 150- 200 umm

order from bone to dentin?

alveolar bone, PL (AE cement), CI cement, hyaline layer, Tomes granular layer, dentin

appearance of cement?
structure characteristics?

pale yellow, dull in colour.

softer than dentin, more permeable (especially cell area
can be more mineralized in some areas

Chemical makeup of cement?

65% inorganic (hydroxyapetite), 23 % organic (collagen, mostly T1) 12% water

where is cement acellular? cellular?

cellular- apical part of tooth

acellular- cervical part

What kind of cement is acellular?
What kind of cement is cellular? CI

American eagle?

acellular- extrinsic= perpendicular to root, found cervically

cellular- intrinsic- parallel, do not anchor, found apically

how is cement made? BRIEF

organic layer layer down first i.e. cemented, then mineralized

What structure doe cellular cement resemble? how?

cellular cement resembles bone. Cementocytes live in lacunae, communicate via canliculi, have gap junctions....NO BLOOD VESSELS IN CEMENT, GET NUTRIENTS VIA DIFFUSION (GAP JUNCTIONS))

Growth factors influencing cement formation?

boston pizza food- Bone morphogenic protein --> differentiation

insulin and platelet derived growth factor-cell cycle

Fibroblast growth factor- blastoff! cell migration/adhesion

adhesion molecules of cement?

osteopontin- regulates crystal formation

bone sialoprotein- adhesion to root and mineralization

other factors influencing cement?

gal proteins= crystal formation

endothelial enamel like proteins- differentiation

collagen- ensure there is tissue space open

how do canaliculi b/w cementoblasts communicate?

via gap jxns

compare and contrast...acellular cement first

acellular- no cells, not a distinct boundary with dentine, forms slow, close incremental lines, no pre cement

cellular cement...contrasted with acellular

cellular- has cells (contained in lacunae and canaliculi with cementoocytes and their processes), demarcated boundary with dentine, forms fast, incremental lines far apart, has pre cement

2 CRITERIA CEMENT IS BASED ON?

1) WHETHER IT HAS CELLS (ACELLULAR, CELLULAR)



2) ITS ORIENTATION (EXTRINSIC, INTRINSIC)

2 places does AE cement come from?

mostly the PL, but the ones from the cementoblasts form the fibrous fringe

afibrillar cement?

FOUND B/W CEMENT AND DENTIN AKA INTERMEDIATE CEMENT



NO COLLAGEN, hence why its called fibrillar

how does cement age?

get more abrasive, hypercalcified collagen bundles

What happens to cement during trauma?

CEMENT will undergo resorption during trauma, cementocytes will repair the cement and the dentin sine odontoblasts cannot repair dentin at the surface.

CEMENt PROTECTING THE ROOT!

hypercementosis?

inflammation of root/cement,

due to tooth eruption or periodical

maintenance of the tooth in the socket is up to 3 impt structures...name em

alveolar bone, PL, cement

how thick is PL? what does it contain?

protects against?

150-380um....blood vessels, nerves, lymph tissue

PL important for mastication, contains stretches and relaxes whenever teeth are clenched

collagen fibers in PL?

mostly type 1 (70%), sand type 3 (20%)...type 3

mostly for areas of high turnover i.e. fetal

type 4 and 7 involved in blood vessels,

type XII regulates PL architecture (theory)

what is a principle fiber? how thick?

principle fivers stretch whole length of ligament, usually 5um in diameter, branch out
