the tissues that surround the teeth

42
Q

periodontium includes:

A

gingiva
cementum
alveolar bone
periodontal ligament

43
Q

gingiva

covers the bone and surrounds the cervical portions of teeth

44
Q

gingiva can be divided into:

A

free gingiva
attached gingiva
interdental papilla

45
Q

alveolar mucosa

A

dark red; loose attachment to the underlying bone

46
Q

mucogingival junction

A

junction of the alveolar mucosa and gingiva

47
Q

free gingiva

A

closer to the tooth crown, not attached to the bone

48
Q

free gingival groove

A

separates attached gingiva from free gingiva

49
Q

interdental papilla

A

the triangular shaped gingiva that occupied the gingival embrasure

50
Q

gingival sulcus

A

space b/w tooth surface and narrow cervical collar of free gingiva
*not seen visually, but can be evaluated with a periodontal probe

51
Q

periodontal ligament

A

surrounds tooth root and attaches tooth to alveolar bone

52
Q

alveolar bone

A

forms and supports tooth sockets
*AKA alveolar process
