D.Osteoclast
A. This cell type becomes a constituent of the PDL and is responsible for the synthesis and lysis of the intercellular substances of the PDL.
B. This cell type becomes a constituent of the PDL and is responsible for the synthesis of cementum tissue.
C. This cell type becomes a constituent of the PDL and is responsible for the synthesis of alveolar bone.
What is the term used for the origin and formation of enamel tissue?
Amelogenesis
The dental follicle of a tooth germ matures to become which of the following specific tissues of the periodontium?
A. Alveolar bond
B. Cementum
C. Periodontal ligament
D. Gingiva
C, PDL. The dental follicle undergoes maturation to become the PDL that continues to house the cells that arose from the stem cells of the follicle.
