- alveolar process
- cementum
- periodontal ligament
perio develops during a series of complex interaction of
mesenchyme, HERS, and dentel follicle
gomphosis
fibrous peg-in-socket joint
origin of osteoblast
surrounding mesenchymal tissue
origin of cemtoblast: HERS/follicle cells
ectomesenchyme cells
origin of PDL fibroblast
follicle cells/ectomesenchymecells
origin of odontoblast:
formdentinpart of the cemento-dentaljunction, dental pailla
