osteoblasts
fibroblasts

26
Q

-regeneration and repair of cementum following injury
-continuous physiologic deposition of cementum

A

cementoblasts

27
Q

-continuous physiologic remodeling of supporting alveolar bone
-regeneration and repair of bone following orthodontic therapy or disease

A

osteoblasts

28
Q

29
Q

fusion of CEMENTUM directly with the surrounding ALVEOLAR BONE without the intervening PDL

-usually reparative response to PDL injury

A

ankylosis

30
Q

if the degree of injury is SIGNIFICANT and the cells that respond are from the surrounding alveolar bone the result will be:

if the injury is SLIGHT and responding cells are from PDL (undifferentiated cells), result would be:

A

significant= ankylosis

slight= cells can regenerate all tissues involved in tooth support and PDL will be restored

31
Q

wound healing of PDL is similar to trauma response of PDL:

  1. undifferentiated cells migrate into the area as ________ and PMN’s remove damaged tissues
  2. these 2 cells replace the damaged tissue
  3. a mast cell response is present in which ______ and _____ are released- this inflammatory response helps necessary cell reach their target
A
  1. macrophages
  2. fibroblasts and osteoblasts
  3. heparin and histamine
