They will target cementum in their next attempt.

If left untreated, critical structures (alveolar bone, periodontal ligament and tooth root cementum) below the gum line become involved, signifying the transition to periodontitis.

Resorbed cementum and dentin is replaced with hard, bone - like tissue.

The dentin of the roots is covered with a layer called cementum, which helps cement the tooth in place.

Tooth enamel is the hardest and most highly mineralized substance of the body, and with dentin, cementum, and dental pulp is one of the four major parts of the tooth.

Most genetics research on ancient teeth has focused on the inner tooth tissue, dentine, but Adler's team found that cementum, the coating of the root, was a richer source of DNA.

It is enamel, dentin (under enamel), cementum (under the gum, on the roots), and pulp (where the nerves are).

Sometimes, he notes, people will develop abfractions — fracture points at the junction of the tooth / gum interface, which will lead to exposed dentin / cementum and increased sensitivity of teeth.

The gingiva or gum, the cementum (a calcified substance that covers the root of a tooth), the periodontal ligament holding the tooth in the socket, and the alveolar bone that supports the tooth.

The periodontal structures are the ones involved that are the structures AROUND the tooth, including the gingiva, cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone.

When dental disease affects tooth ligaments and cementum, the tooth loosens and falls out.

Teeth are held in these sockets by ligaments and cementum.

These structures include the gingiva (gums), the alveolar bones (the bones called the maxilla and the mandible that contain the tooth sockets holding teeth in place), the cementum (the calcified substance covering the root of the tooth), and the periodontal ligament (the connective fibers holding the tooth to the bone).

The periodontium is comprised of tissues that support the tooth - the gingiva (gums), cementum (connective tissue that covers tooth root), alveolar bone (socket), and periodontal ligament (fibers that attach the tooth to the alveolar bone).

The periodontal tissues include: gingiva, periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone.

The cementum, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone which support the tooth suffer.

The periodontal tissues are the gingiva, the periodontal ligament, cementum, and the alveolar...

Stage 3 — Deep dental hard tissue loss including cementum or cementum and enamel, and loss of dentin that extends to the pulp chamber.

Stage 1 — Mild dental hard tissue loss, either cementum alone or cementum and enamel.

Stage 2 — Moderate dental hard tissue loss including cementum or cementum and enamel, and loss of dentin that has not yet reached the pulp cavity.

Tooth resorption is a progressive disease which typically first erodes the cementum, or surface layer of the root, and the dentin, which is the hard tissue just below the enamel of the tooth.

The periodontal ligament is made out of tough connective tissue, and runs between the bone of the jaw and the cementum of the roots, and holds the two together in a strong, flexible, elastic bond.

The gums, or gingiva, cover the bone of the jaw and attatch to the cementum of the roots leaving a small pocket, or gingival sulcus, normally less than 2 mm deep in dogs, between the enamel of the crown and the gingiva.
