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 |
|
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? |
pale yellow, dull in colour. |
|
Chemical makeup of cement? |
65% inorganic (hydroxyapetite), 23 % organic (collagen, mostly T1) 12% water |
|
where is cement acellular? cellular? |
cellular- apical part of tooth |
|
What kind of cement is acellular? |
acellular- extrinsic= perpendicular to root, found cervically |
|
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 |
|
adhesion molecules of cement? |
osteopontin- regulates crystal formation |
|
other factors influencing cement? |
gal proteins= crystal formation |
|
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. |
|
hypercementosis? |
inflammation of root/cement, |
|
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? |
150-380um....blood vessels, nerves, lymph tissue |
|
collagen fibers in PL? |
mostly type 1 (70%), sand type 3 (20%)...type 3 |
|
what is a principle fiber? how thick? |
principle fivers stretch whole length of ligament, usually 5um in diameter, branch out |
