Q

what s of clinical importance of cementum vs bone remodelling

A

cementum is resistant to resorption but if late force will resorb
bone is easily remodelled imp in ortho

Q

what are the 9 steps in cementum formtion

A

1 - HERS induces odontoblasts form
2 - predentine then dentine form HERS basal lamina breaks down
3 - Hers = enamel matrix P on to predentie
4 - EMP mineralise = hyaline layer
5 - Hers disintegrates
6 - induce follicle cells migrate to root surface and form cemetnoblasts
7 - cemnoblasts = cementum and retreat out
8 - cementum mineralise trap PDL
9 - cell rest malaise

local disrupt of REE
DF cells contact with enamel 
mineralised GS

get trapped in own secretions

in lacunae and cyto

41

Q

what is the function of primary/acellular cememtnunm

A

anchorage
