This document provides an overview of cementum, including:
- Cementum is the calcified tissue covering tooth roots that provides attachment for periodontal ligament fibers.
- It is classified based on the presence of cells, fiber composition, and location on tooth roots. Thickness varies along roots and increases with age.
- Cementum undergoes continuous deposition but is resistant to resorption under forces. It plays a role in tooth attachment and repairing root surfaces.
- Alterations can occur due to disease, trauma, systemic factors and periodontal pathology like calculus attachment and root resorption in pockets.
Cementum is a hard, avascular connective tissue that covers the roots of teeth. It provides attachment for the periodontal ligament fibers and protects the underlying dentin. There are two types of cementum - acellular and cellular. Acellular cementum is laid down early in development and provides the main attachment for teeth. Cellular cementum is laid down later and is found mainly in the apical regions. Cementum is continuously deposited over the life of the tooth to maintain its length and acts to repair resorption of the root surface.
TOOTH ROOT CEMENTUM- A HISTOLOGICAL STUDYdrdhaval3
Cementum is the calcified tissue that covers the root surface of teeth. It has two types - acellular and cellular cementum. Acellular cementum forms first and covers the cervical third of roots, while cellular cementum forms later and is more irregular with cementocytes. Cementum provides attachment of collagen fibers to the tooth and allows for functional adaptation through deposition and resorption throughout life. The alveolar process forms the bony housing and support for teeth within the jaws. It is composed of cortical and cancellous bone and undergoes remodeling in response to tooth formation, eruption, and occlusal forces.
Cementum is the calcified, avascular mesenchymal tissue that forms the outer covering of the anatomic root.
it describes the development of cementum and its various types.
The document discusses the periodontium, which is composed of four tissues that support teeth in the jaw: cementum, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone, and gingivae. It focuses on cementum, describing it as a thin layer of calcified tissue covering tooth roots. Cementum varies in thickness and comes in cellular and acellular forms. It plays roles in protecting tooth roots, providing attachment for periodontal fibers, and reversing tooth resorption.
This document provides information on cementum, including its definition, physical characteristics, chemical composition, formation (cementogenesis), classification, functions, anomalies, and clinical considerations. Cementum is the mineralized tissue covering tooth roots. It is softer than dentin and lacks enamel's luster. Cementum formation involves acellular and cellular stages. Cementum attaches the periodontal ligament fibers to the tooth root and allows for tooth repair. Abnormalities include hypercementosis, ankylosis, and cementomas. Cementum is an important part of the periodontium that aids in tooth attachment and repair.

Cementum is the specialized mineralized tissue that covers the anatomical root of a tooth. It begins at the cementoenamel junction and continues along the root to the apex. Cementum functions to attach periodontal ligament collagen fibers to the root, serving as a medium for reattachment during repair. Cementum is thickest at the root apex and thinnest cervically. It is deposited throughout life by cementoblast cells and maintains periodontal ligament attachment through cementocyte cellular activity and Sharpey's fiber insertion. Developmental anomalies such as enamel pearls, hypercementosis, and cementicles can occur and impact periodontal health.
Cementum is one of the four tissues of the periodontium. It is the thin avascular mineralized tissue that covers the root surface of teeth underneath the gingiva. Cementum has both organic and inorganic components and comes in two forms - acellular and cellular cementum. It provides attachment for the periodontal ligament fibers and aids in tooth repair and regeneration after injury. Cementum is softer than dentine and can be more easily removed with abrasion when exposed by gingival recession, causing root sensitivity.

Calcium and Phosphorous metabolism 23-03-23.pptxmalti19
Calcium and phosphorus metabolism is tightly regulated by vitamin D, parathyroid hormone, and calcitonin. Calcium is crucial for bone development, nerve function, and other processes. The recommended daily intake is 800 mg for adults. Dietary sources include dairy products, leafy greens, and fish. Absorption occurs in the small intestine and is influenced by vitamin D, PTH, and other factors. Hormonal signals work to maintain calcium levels within a narrow range. Disorders like rickets and osteomalacia can result from vitamin D deficiency. Precise regulation is needed to prevent hypercalcemia or hypocalcemia.
The document summarizes the anatomy and function of the muscles of mastication. It describes the three main muscles - masseter, temporalis, and medial and lateral pterygoid. It discusses their embryological development, nerve supply, actions, and clinical evaluation. The masseter muscle is palpated to assess for hypertrophy. Orthodontic treatment can impact the thickness of the muscles. The medial pterygoid muscle is also described in more detail, including its nerve supply by the mandibular nerve, blood supply, actions, and clinical examination.
The facial nerve emerges from the brainstem between the pons and medulla. It has motor, sensory, and parasympathetic secretomotor components. During embryonic development, it arises from the second branchial arch. The nerve passes through the internal acoustic meatus and facial canal within the temporal bone. It gives off several branches within the facial canal before exiting at the stylomastoid foramen. Its main branches in the face include the temporal, zygomatic, buccal, marginal mandibular, and cervical branches which innervate the muscles of facial expression.
1) PRP and PRF are platelet concentrates that provide growth factors that may enhance tissue regeneration.
2) Studies have shown PRP and PRF can increase the release of growth factors like PDGF, TGF-β1, and VEGF compared to control groups.
3) However, the evidence on whether PRP and PRF improve bone regeneration outcomes is mixed. Some studies found benefits for parameters like new bone formation and defect fill, while other studies found no additional benefits compared to control treatments.
This document discusses chlorhexidine, a commonly used chemical plaque control agent. It provides details on the history, chemistry, forms, mechanisms of action, products, clinical uses, toxicity and side effects of chlorhexidine. Chlorhexidine is a bisbiguanide antiseptic that is highly effective at inhibiting plaque formation and controlling gingivitis when used as a mouthrinse. It has a wide range of clinical applications and is generally well-tolerated, though long-term use can cause staining and changes to taste sensation in some individuals.
Oral hygiene and overall health
Department of Periodontology and oral Implantology
The document discusses the importance of oral hygiene for preventing dental diseases and maintaining overall health. It notes that over 3.5 billion people suffer from oral diseases according to the WHO, but many can be prevented through proper oral hygiene. Maintaining oral hygiene includes brushing teeth twice daily, flossing, cleaning the tongue, and visiting the dentist regularly. Poor oral hygiene can lead to dental caries, gum disease, and systemic issues like diabetes and heart disease.
Reducing fracture risk with Calcium and Vitamin D
Osteoporotic fractures are a major health problem that most commonly affect the spine and hip. Low calcium intake and vitamin D deficiency increase fracture risk by reducing bone mineral density and strength. Clinical trials show that calcium and vitamin D supplementation can reduce fracture risk, especially when vitamin D doses reach 800 IU daily and calcium intake reaches 1000-1200 mg. For older individuals, supplementation is most effective for those at high risk of deficiency living in nursing homes or with low dairy intake.
Antibiotics in the management of chronic periodontitis.pptmalti19
This document summarizes evidence on the use of adjunctive antibiotics for chronic periodontitis. A systematic review of 25 studies found some additional benefits of antibiotics in deep pockets, including 0.2-0.6 mm more attachment gain and 0.2-0.8 mm more probing depth reduction. However, the clinical relevance is uncertain given limitations in defining chronic periodontitis and its microbiota. Overall, current studies have not conclusively established benefits of adjunctive antibiotics, so they cannot be routinely indicated as adjuncts for chronic periodontitis.
The document discusses immediate dentures, which are complete or partial dentures fabricated immediately after tooth extraction. It describes the differences between conventional (classic) immediate dentures and interim (transitional) immediate dentures. Conventional immediate dentures are intended as the long-term prosthesis and are made when only anterior teeth remain. Interim immediate dentures are short-term and are made when posterior teeth remain, requiring only one surgical visit. The document outlines the procedures, indications, contraindications, advantages and disadvantages of both types of immediate dentures.

REFERENCES
4. Periodontium consists of investing layer and supporting
tissues of the tooth: gingiva, periodontal ligament,
Cementum and alveolar bone.
Divided into 2 parts:
Gingiva : protects the underlying tissues
Attachment apparatus : composed of PDL, cementum and
alveolar bone
Cementum is considered a part of the periodontium because,
with the bone - supports fibres of PDL.
5. It was first demonstrated microscopically in 1835
by 2 pupils of Purkinje
Hard bone like tissue covering the anatomic roots
of the teeth(Newman et al, 2006)
The word cementum is derived from a Latin word
Caementum, “quarried stone”
6. Cementum is a calcified, avascular mesenchymal
tissue that forms the outer covering of anatomic root.
(Newman et al,2006)
Cementum is the thin, calcified tissue of
ectomesencymal origin covering the roots of teeth.
(Glossary of Periodontology)
7. Formation of cementum can be subdivided into:
1) prefunctional developmental stage: formed during the root
development- 3.5 and 7.5 years.
2)functional developmental stage: commences when the tooth is
about to reach the occlusal level.
- associated with attachment of root to bone
- continues throughout life- adaptive and reparative processes are
carried out by the biological responsiveness of cementum.
- influences the alterations in the distribution and appearance of
the cementum varies on the root surface with time.

10. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:(Berkowitz et al, 2002)
1) Pale yellow with dull surface
2) softer than dentin
3) permeability
-cellular variety more permeable as the canaliculi in some areas
are continuous with the dentinal tubules
- more permeable than dentine
- decreases with age
4) soft and thin cervically- readily removed by abrasion when
gingival recession exposes the root surface to the oral
environment.
11. CHEMICAL PROPERTIES(Berkowitz et al, 2002)
1) on the basis of weight:
inorganic – 65%
organic – 23%
water – 12%
2) on the basis of volume:
inorganic – 45%
organic –33%
water – 22%
12. BASED ON PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF CELLS
Cellular Cementum
- contains cells(cementocytes)
- found in the apical and interradicular areas and overlying
the acellular cementum
- formed after acellular- secondary cementum
- faster rate of matrix formation – incremental lines farther
- presence of precementum
- spaces that the cementocytes occupy are called lacunae
and the channels that their processes extend along are the
canaliculi
13. - adjacent canaliculi are often connected and the
processes within them exhibits gap junction
- cementocytes are more widely dispersed and more
randomly arranged
- canaliculi preferentially oriented towards PDL –
chief source of nutrition
- once embedded cementocytes become relatively
inactive
- border with dentin is clearly demarcated
14. Acellular Cementum
- appears relatively structureless- no cells
- first formed – primary cementum
- covers the root adjacent to the dentine more in the
cervical 2/3
- slower rate of matrix formation
- incremental lines are closer
- precementum is virtually absent
- border with dentin is not clearly demarcated
15. ACELLUAR CEMENTUM CELLULAR CEMENTUM
1. Primary cementum. Secondary Cementum
2. Present on cervical third or half of
the root.
Mainly on apical third of root
3. It does not contain cells. It contain cells called cementocytes in
individual spaces lacunae
4. It is formed before the tooth reaches
the occlusal plane.
Formed after the tooth reaches the
occlusal plane
5. More calcified. Less Calcified
6. Sharpey’s fibers are main component
which inserted at approximately right
angles onto the root surface.
Sharpey’s fibers occupy smaller portion
& occupy other fibers that are arranged
parallel to the root surface.
16. BASED ON THE NATURE AND ORIGIN OF THE
ORGANIC MATRIX:
cementum derives its organic matrix from 2 sources
Extrinsic Fibers: from inserting sharpey’s fibers of the
periodontal ligament- perpendicular or oblique to the root
surface
Intrinsic Fibers: from cementoblasts- run parallel to the
root surface and approximately at right angles to extrinsic
fibers
Mixed Fiber Cementum: both the above fibers are
present
17. Based on presence or absence of cells and the nature
and origin of the organic matrix-
(Schroeder’s classification)
ACELLULAR AFIBRILLAR CEMENTUM(AAC):
- Contains neither cells nor extrinsic or intrinsic collagen
fibers
- only mineralized ground substance
- product of cementoblasts
- found as coronal cementum
- thickness – 1 to 15 µm
18. ACELLULAR EXTRINSIC FIBER
CEMENTUM(AEFC):
- Composed almost entirely of densely packed bundles of
sharpey’s fibers
- Product of fibroblasts and cementoblasts
- Cervical third of roots but may extend farther apically
- Thickness – 30-230µm
CELLULAR MIXED STRATIFIED
CEMENTUM(CMSC):
- Composed of extrinsic and intrinsic fibers
- May contain cells
- Co-product of fibroblasts and cementoblasts
- Primarily in the apical third, apices and in furcation areas
- thickness – 100-1000µm
19. CELLULAR INTRINSIC FIBER
CEMENTUM(CIFC):
- Contains cells, but no extrinsic collagen fibers
- Formed by cementoblasts
- Fills resorption lacunae
INTERMEDIATE CEMENTUM:
- poorly defined zone near cementodentinal
junction of certain teeth that appears to contain
cellular remnants of Hertwig’s sheath embedded in
calcified ground substance
20.
21.
22. Varies at different levels of the root
Thickest at the root apex and interradicular areas
of multirooted teeth – 50-200µm (may exceed to
600µm)
Thinnest cervically – 10-15µm
Thickest in distal side than mesial due to mesial
drift
Between ages 11 and 70 – thickness increases 3 fold
– 95µm at 20yrs and 215µm at 60yrs (Zander and
Hurzler, 1958)
Impacted teeth have thin cementum
23. Cementum provide a medium for the attachment to the
collagen fibers of periodontal ligament.
Cementum is hard & has no blood supply, It does not show
resorption under masticatory or orthodontic forces. Thus,
during heavy orthodontic forces, tooth integrity is
maintained & alveolar bone being elastic in nature changes
its shape, fulfilling the orthodontic requirement.
Cementum has property of continuous deposition & does
the patch work or repair for the damage such as fracture or
resorption of tooth surface.
Regular Cementum deposition at the root apex, helps to
replenish the lost tooth height due to occlusal wear or
helps in passive eruption of teeth.
24. Continuous deposition:
Cementum formation continues throughout life
unless disturbed by periapical or periodontal
pathology
Deposited at a linear rate (Azaz et al, 1974)
More cementum is formed apically than
cervically
Cementum thickness shows variations among
tooth groups and surfaces
Thick layers may form in root surface grooves
and furcations of multirooted teeth
Great variations in incremental lines indicate
that rate of cementum formation may vary
25. Types of resorption:
Physiological root resorption : normal phenomenon of
deciduous teeth during tooth shedding
Causes for resorption of permanent teeth
pathological like infectious, systemic diseases like
calcium deficiency, hypothyroidism, hereditary
fibrous osteodystrophy and Paget’s disease or tumors
nonpathological like trauma (mechanical, chemical
or thermal) or sustained overcompression of the
PDL
idiopathic
Root resorption classified according to location as
Internal
External
26. According to degree of persistence
Transient
Progressive
Root surface is more resistant to resorption than bone
No. of teeth resorbed and severity of resorption are
markedly increased by orthodontic treatment
Appears microscopically as bay like concavities in the
root surface
Multinucleated giant cells and large mononuclear
macrophages are generally found adjacent to
cementum
May extend into underlying dentin
Not necessarily continuous, may alternate with
periods of repair and deposition of new cementum,
new cementum is demarcated from the root by a
deeply staining irregular line - reversal line
27. Repair:
Following detachment of odontoclasts from the
root surface, cementogenic cells repopulate in
the How ship's lacunae and attach the initial
repair matrix to a thin decalcified layer of
residual and exposed collagen fibrils
Basophilic and electron dense reversal line
forms at the fibrillar junction
Deposited repair matrix resembles cellular
intrinsic fiber cementum
Cementum repair requires viable connective
tissue
Can occur in devitalized and in vital teeth
28. There various studies in the past years that have shown
that Enamel matrix protein(s) are involved in the
development of cementum and that these proteins
may be used as a means to regenerate acellular
extrinsic fibre cementum.
29. Cementum reactions to physiological tooth
movement and occlusal forces:
Presence of cementum on impacted teeth
indicates that occlusal forces are not necessary
to stimulate cementum deposition
In posterior teeth, cementum is markedly
thicker on the distal than on the mesial root
surface – indicating relationship to mesial drift
Cementum like bone is dynamically responsive
and its growth may be stimulated by tensional
forces
Cementum is thicker in areas exposed to
tensional forces
30.
31. CEMENTICLES:
Small foci of calcified tissue, not necessarily true cementum, which lie
free in the PDL of lateral and apical root areas
Exact cause is unknown
Mostly represent areas of dystrophic calcification and thus are an eg. of
regressive or degenerative change
Develop by
Calcification of epithelial cells – enlarge by further deposition of
calcium salts in the adjacent surrounding connective tissue –
continued peripheral calcification may result in eventual union or
even inclusion of the cementicle in the root cementum or alveolar
bone – pattern of calcification is of a circular lamellated structure.
Only when embedded in the cementum, it may impart a roughened
globular outline to the root surface
32. Ankylosis (Shafer et al, 2006)
Cessation of continued eruption
Anatomic fusion of tooth cementum or dentin with alveolar
bone
Other terms – infraocclusion, secondary retention,
submergence, reimpaction and reinclusion
Pathogenesis is unknown and may be secondary to
disturbances from
Changes in local metabolism
Trauma
Injury
Chemical or thermal irritation
Local failure of bone growth
Abnormal pressure from the tongue
33. Concrescence (Shafer et al, 2006)
Form of fusion which occurs after root formation
Teeth are united by cementum
Thought to arise as a result of traumatic injury or
crowding of teeth with resorption of interdental bone,
so that 2 roots are in approximate contact and become
fused by deposition of cementum
May occur before or after tooth eruption
Diagnosed radiographically
Extraction of 1 may result in the extraction of the other
34. Ectopic enamel (Neville et al, 2002)
Presence of enamel in unusual locations, mainly tooth root
Enamel pearl :
Hemispheric structures consisting entirely of enamel or
contain underlying dentin and pulp tissue
Project from surface of root, more in maxillary molars
Thought to arise from localized bulging of odontoblastic
layer – bulge may provide prolonged contact between
HERS and developing dentin, triggering induction of
enamel formation
Majority occur in furcation area or CEJ
Precludes normal periodontal attachment with
connective tissue and a hemidesmosomal junction
probably exists – less resistant to breakdown, once
separation exists – rapid loss of attachment
Conducive to plaque retention and inadequate cleansing
35. Hypercementosis (Neville et al, 2002)
Nonneoplastic deposition of excessive cementum
that is continuous with the normal radicular
cementum
Radiographically – thickening or blunting of the
root, surrounded by radiolucent PDL space and
adjacent intact lamina dura
Also appears in form of spike-like excrescences
called cemental spikes created by either
coalescence of cementicles to the root or
calcification of PDL fibers
May be isolated, may involve multiple teeth or may
appear as a generalized process
Premolar teeth involved most frequently
Occurs predominantly in adulthood and frequency
increases with age
36.
37.
38.
39. Surface morphology of the tooth wall of periodontal
pockets: (Newman et al,2006)
The following zones can be found
Cementum covered by calculus
Attached plaque, which covers calculus and extends
apically from it to a variable degree, probably 100 to 500
µm
Zone of unattached plaque that surrounds attached
plaque & extends apically to it
Zone of attachment of junctional epithelium to tooth -
The extension of this zone, which in normal sulci is
more than 500 µm, is usually reduced in periodontal
pockets to less than 100 µm
Zone of semidestroyed connective tissue fibers – apical
to junctional epithelium
40. Attachment of calculus
Zander in 1953 investigated calculus
attachment and observed four types of
attachment (Shafer et al, 2006)
Attachment to the secondary cuticle
Attachment to microscopic irregularities in
the surface of cementum corresponding to
previous location of Sharpey's fibers
Penetration of microorganisms of calculus
matrix into cementum
Attachment into areas of cementum
resorption
Calculocementum: Calculus embedded
deeply in cementum may appear
morphologically similar to cementum
(Newman et al)
41. Exposure to oral environment
Bacterial contamination:
Obvious alterations may occur following exposure of
cementum to the environment of periodontal pocket or oral
cavity
Root surface wall of periodontal pockets is significant as they
may perpetuate periodontal infection, cause pain and
complicate periodontal treatment
The root cementum suffers structural, chemical and cytotoxic
changes.
42. Cervical root resorption :
Development of large root resorption defect in cervical
region is, most likely, triggered by inflammatory
processes in adjacent connective tissue
Such resorption generally has an undermining character
Tooth is resorbed after the alveolar bone – immunity to
resorption has been linked to presence of an uncalcified,
vital layer of precementum on root surface
Another explanation could be because cementum is
avascular
Odontoclasts take their origin from bone marrow and cannot
attack the root surface as fast as the osteoclasts reach the
bone surface
43.
44. Cementum may act to perpetuate the destructive
effects of periodontal disease by acting as a reservoir
for potentially destructive material.
Aleo et al observed that endotoxin was found to be
present in the cementum of untreated periodontally
involved teeth having 30% or more loss of supporting
bone. The biologic effects of this cementum - bound
endotoxin, studied in vitro concentration as low as 0-
30 mg/ml of culture medium, were effective in
depressing cell proliferation and viability
When compared to endotoxin form E-coli the
cementum – bound endotoxin was found to be more
toxic. Either biologic activities of endotoxins studied
are not present to an equal degree, or the cementum
bound material contain heat resistant toxic substances
(Aleo et al, 1974)
45.
46. Kagerer and Grupe suggested the possibility of age
estimation from acellular cementum
Used mineralized unstained cross sections of
teeth, preferably mandibular central incisors and
third molars
Authors claimed an accuracy of within 2 or 3 yrs of
chronologic age
Pathologic state of periodontium may compromise
the precision of ageing
Hypermineralized bands gave an indication of
events such as pregnancies, skeletal trauma, and
renal disorders
47. cementum by virtue of its structural and dynamic
qualities, provides tooth attachment and
maintenance of occlusal relationship.
The discovery of variety of non collagenous
proteins in cementum has opened a new research
area of great therapeutic potential, cementum
specific matrix proteins - cementum derived
growth and/or attachment factors may result in
accelerated wound healing and in controlled
neocementogenesis following periodontal
regenerative surgery.

Editor's Notes
These lines contain higher content of ground substance and mineral and lower content of collagen.
As acellular cementum is formed slowly, the incremental lines are closer together than that of cellular cementum which is deposited more rapidly.
Cementum overlaps enamel – 60-65%
Edge-to-edge butt joint – 30%
Cementum and enamel fail to meet – 5-10%
In this case, gingival recession may result in accentuated sensitivity because of exposed dentin
Terminal apical area of cementum where it joins the internal root canal dentin
Obturating material in RCT should be at the CDJ
No increase or decrease of width of the CDJ with age – remains relatively stable
CDJ – 2-3 µm wide
Here the fibrils intermingle between cementum and dentin
Cementicles are round lamellated cemental bodies that lie free in the PDL or are attached to the root surface
Mostly found in aging persons or at the site of trauma.
CEMENTOMA is also called benign cementoblastoma or cemental dysplasia. These are cemental masses situated at the apex of the root which are slowly growing odontogenic neoplasm and may cause expansion of jaw.
Ankylosis : Fusion of cementum & alveolar bone with no PDL in between, known as Ankylosis.
Causes : Faulty replantation & transplantation of teeth.
Embedded teeth.
Chronic Periapical Infection.
Trauma to deciduous teeth.
CEMENTAL HYPERPLASIA & HYPERTROPHY : overgrowth when growth does not help in increasing function of the tooth.
eg. due to periapical infection.
If Cementum overgrowth improves or helps in the functioning of teeth, this is called as cemental hypertophy.
eg. Cemental spike develps from extensive orthodontic force
Hypercementosis means abnormally prominent thickness of the cementum on root surface
Localized - Cemental spikes, Excementosis
Generalized - Paget’s disease Chronic periapical infection. Non functional teeth without any antagonist.
Minor resorption changes- by reparative dentin.
Major irreversible damage due to exposure.
