Q

functions of cementum

A

-Tooth anchorage via PDL attachment
* Protection of the dentin-pulp complex;
* Adaptation (reshaping of root) due
to occlusal wear
* Repair from damage

Q

can cementum remodel

Q

function of PDL

A

Supportive –serves as attachment site; withstands masticatory forces
Maintenance -high degree of turnover due mechanical stress

Q

what types of sensory receptors can we find in the PDL

A

mechanoreceptors = ruffini
nociceptors = FNE

21
Q

what do the mechanoreceptors in the PDL detect

A

detect pressure/stretch/proprioception:
o control bite force,
o provide feedback about duration,
o intensity and direction of applied force

22
Q

what do the nociceptors in the PDL detect

A

pain and temp

23
Q

do we find autonomics in the PDL

A

yes! sympathetics -> control BV

24
Q

is the PDL well vascularized and supplies bone, cementum, gingiva
and if so, do the blood vessels form anastomoses between gingiva, bone, and PDL

A

yes yes

25
Q

what cells are found in the PDL

A

Cementoblasts
fibroblasts
osteoblasts
osteoclasts
epithelial cell rests
macrophages/ WBC
undifferentiated STEM CELLS

26
Q

what is the area called in the PDL that contains N, BV and lymphatic vessels

A

interstitial space

27
Q

what are distinct fiber bundles that are recognized following eruption as tooth enters occlusion

A

principal fiber bundles of the PDL

28
Q

2 groups of principal fiber bundles

A

Dento-alveolar fiber group – found between tooth and alveolus

Dento Gingival (supra-alveolar) group- found in lamina propria of gingiva
above alveolar crest

29
Q

periodontal ligament appears as a radiolucent area of 0.15 to .24mm located between the ___________ and radiopaque lamina dura of the alveolar bone

A

radiopaque cementum

30
Q

5 types of dento-alveolar fibers

A

alveolar crest
horizontal
oblique
apical
inter-radicular

31
Q

fiber bundles that are found mid-root

A

horizontal

32
Q

what is the function of horizontal fibers

A

resist tipping and horizonral movements

33
Q

fiber bundles that are found apical 1/3

A

oblique

34
Q

what is the most abundant fiber bundle

A

OBLLQUE!!!

35
Q

fiber bundles that are found apex to fundic bone

A

apical

36
Q

fiber bundles that are found b/w roots

A

inter-radicular

37
Q

T/f

in dento-gingival fiber group, Fiber bundles DO attach to the alveolar socket (alveolar bone proper)

A

FALSE

Fiber bundles DO NOT attach to the alveolar socket (alveolar bone proper)

extend from gingiva to cortical bone or cementum

38
Q

functions of dento-gingival fiber groups

A

hold (marginal/free) gingiva against the tooth:
* Protect against periodontal infection
* Reinforce the connection of junctional epithelium to tooth
* Provide rigidity to withstand masticatory force without distortion
* Reinforce the connection between the free and attached gingiva
* Link adjacent teeth and gingiva together

39
Q

what are the 5 types of dento-gingival fiber groups

A

circular
alveolo-gingival
dentogingival
dentoperiosteal
transeptal

40
Q

what fiber group encircles the tooth but DOES NOT ATTACH TO TOOTH

A

circular

41
Q

what fiber group is from alveolar crest –> AG/FG

A

alveolo-gingival

42
Q

what fiber group is from CEJ –> AG/FG

A

dentogingival

43
Q

what fiber group is from CEJ –> cortical palte

A

dentoperiosteal

44
Q

what fiber group is from CEJ –> another CEJ

A

transeptal

45
Q

which fiber group prevents mesial distal separation

A

transeptal

46
Q

what happens to our PDL space as we age

A

gets skinner and there is a decrease in turnover

47
Q

hypofunction of PDL leads to

A

decrease in PDL space

48
Q

for ortho, what all is happening on the TENSION SIDE

A

TENSION SIDE = bone formation via OB

increase in remodeling!

49
Q

for ortho, what is all happening on the COMPRESSION SIDE (side tooth is tipping towards)

A

COMPRESSION SIDE = bone resorption via OC
