Q

proliferation steps

A
  • proliferative cells (basal, adjacent to gingiva ct) migrate up
  • ameloblasts displaced and eventually all are exfoliated
  • JE replaces REE, from coronal end downwards

19
Q

dentogingival

A
  • most numerous

- cementum to free and attached gingiva

20
Q

alveologingival

A

alveolar crest to free and attached gingiva

21
Q

circular

A

goes around the soft tissue of the tooth

22
Q

dentoperiosteal

A

cementum, over the alveolar crest, and into bone

23
Q

transeptal

A

between teeth

24
Q

5 types of PDL fibers

A
  • alveolar crest
  • horizontal
  • oblique
  • apical
  • interradicular
25
Q

alveolar crest

A

cementum below CEJ downward towards alveolus

26
Q

horizontal group

A

(below alveolar crest) goes to bone

27
Q

oblique

A
  • most numerous

- cementum upward to alveolar bone

28
Q

apical

A

apical cementum to alveolar bone

29
Q

interradicular

A

between roots of multirooted teeth (molars)

30
Q

white opaque layer that shows up on radiograph

A

lamina dura

31
Q

PDL

A

found -between cementum and inner cortical plate of alveolar bone
-specialized CT that provides supportive, nutritive, and sensory function

32
Q

osteoclasts and odontoclasts are derived from

A

blood borne macrophages

33
Q

how is PDL formed

A
  • unorganized CT initially
  • short fiber bundles extend
  • ligament mesenchymal cells secrete TYPE I COLLAGEN which assemble into bundles
  • remodled into PDL (from CEJ downwards)
34
Q

2 ways of classifying cementum

A

cellular connotation or fibrillar connotation

35
Q

cellular connotation

A

1) acellular

2) cellular

36
Q

acellular cementum

A
  • no cells

- provides attachment

37
Q

cellular cementum

A
  • cementocytes

- adaptive role

38
Q

fibrillar connotation

A

1) intrinsic
2) extrinsic
3) mixed
4) afibrillar

39
Q

intrinsic

A
  • fibers made by CEMENTOBLASTS

- parallel to cementum surface

40
Q

extrinsic

A
  • sharpey’s fibers
  • continuous with PDL
  • made by PDL FIBROBLASTS
  • perpendibular to cementum surface
  • tooth anchorage
41
Q

mixed

A

both extrinsic and intrinsic

42
Q

afibrillar

A

no type I collagen fibers

43
Q

cementum types

A

1) acellular afibrillar (AAC)
2) acellular extrinsic fiber (AEFC)
3) cellular intrinsic
4) cellular mixed

44
Q

acellular afibrillar cementum (AAC)

A
  • no fibrils or cementocytes
  • produced by CEMENTOBLASTS
  • pre-eruptive enamel maturation
  • CORONAL cementum
45
Q

acellular extrinsic fiber cementum (AEFC)

A
  • type I collagen, part of sharpeys fibers and continuous with PDL
  • made by FIBROBLASTS
  • densely packed
  • pre and post eruptive
  • CERVICAL 2/3 OF ROOT
  • TOOTH ANCHORAGE
46
Q

cellular intrinsic fiber

A
  • cementocytes
  • intrinsic fiber (made from CEMENTOBLASTS)
  • pre and post
  • SITES OF REPAIR
47
Q

cellular mixed

A
  • APICAL THIRD OF ROOT AND FURCATIONS
  • cementoblasts trapped => cementocytes
  • intrinsic run between extrinsic (not as dense)
  • extrinsic more irregular path
  • CEMENTOBLASTS AND FIBROBLASTS
