Q

Can the cmentocytes die in the lacunae?

A

Yes, when they get too far from the periodontal ligament and there are empty lacunae left

Hence why farm in the ground section

27
Q

Are cementocytes active or inactive?

A

No

Minute amounts of energy and protein synthesising organelles

28
Q

What are the incremental lines in cementum called?

A

Incremental lines of Salter

29
Q

What do incremental lines of salter represent?

Q

Are lines of salter regular?

A

No, especially in cellular cementum

31
Q

What do these lines represent?

A

Incremental Lines of Salter

32
Q

What is the Tomes’ granular layer?

A

Results from the looping and branching of the dentino tubules as a result of the branching of the odontoblastic processes

33
Q

Where does the dark line (afibrillar) locate?

A

Between the hyaline layer and the cementum

34
Q
