Q

describe what happens before cementum on roof surface is made

A

HERS at the coronoapical extension of inner and outer enamel epithelium send induction message to produce some enamel or other epithelium proteins to the facing ectomesenchymal pulp cells, that form odontoblast and make the predentin.

Q

current theories

A
  1. after dentine has been deposited, the hers become interrupted and ectomesenchymal cells from the inner portion of dentinal follicle comes in contact with the predentin
  2. dental follicle receive reciprocal inductive signals from dentine or hers surrounding the cells and differentiate into cementoblast.
  3. the hers trasnform into cementoblast

Q

what leads to the formation of cementodentinal junction

A

cementoblast producing acellular extrinsic fiber differentiate at the proximity of the root edge
in the developing root, cementoblast align against the un mineralized mantle dentine
they extend their processes inside the mantle dentin and starts depositing collagen fibers so the cementum and dentine intermingle.
mineralization then spreads from mantle dentine to the cementum under the influence on non collagenous matrix proteins and that’s how CEJ is made

Q

how acellular extrinsic fiber cementum thickens

A

27
Q

overall degree of mineralization of acellular extrinsic fiber cementum is

A

45-60%

28
Q

cellular intrinsic fiber cementum

A

after half the root has been formed a less mineralized cementum is formed against the unmirezalllied dentine at the advancing root

29
Q

cementoid

A

a layer of un mineralized matrix present on the surface of mineralized matrix is present called cementoid

30
Q

cementocytes

A

as cementum deposition progress the cementoblast gets entrapped in the ecm secreted by cementoblast and now are called cementocytes.
they reside in lacuna and have canaliculi which does not form syncytium

31
Q

cellular mixed fiber cementum

A

as PDL becomes organized, cementum keeps depositing around the ligament fiber bundles and that’s how they are in cooperated into the cementum and are partially mineralized so are called cellular mixed fiber cementum

32
Q

sec0ndayr cementum is identifiable in microscope how

A

it has cementocytes lying in lacuna and have canaliculi directed towards the tooth surface
intrinsic fibers are uniformly mineralized where as extrinsic are not
the presence of cementoid on the surface

33
Q

secondary cementum is not present in what teeth and is confined to

A

canine and incisor

apical and interradicular regions of the tooth

34
Q

acellular afribrillar cementum

A

cementum has no collagen and its deposited on enamel and dentine in proximity to DEJ (does not take part in tooth anchoring)

35
Q

2 ways that believed to form then acellular afribrillar cementum

A

caused by a developmental anomaly due to local disruption in the reduced enamel epithelium that permit follicular cells to come in contact with enamel and differentiate into cementoblast
HERS may form epithelial products that accumulate on the root surface and form this intermediate cementum

36
Q

acellular afibril cementum is found

A

cervical enamel

37
Q

extrinsic acellular fiber cementum found

A

cervical margin (50 micrometer) to two thirds of the root and in canine and incisor (only one found in this teeth) present till apical foramen (200 micrometer)
