The Construction of Biomimetic Cementum Through a Combination of Bioskiving and Fluorine-Containing Biomineralization

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Despite tremendous attention is given to the construction of biomimetic cementum for regeneration of tooth cementum, the lack of recapitulating the composition and hierarchical structure of cementum often leads to the poor performance of constructed ...

Efficiency of three different polishing methods on enamel and cementum: A scanning electron microscope study

Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2018
Background: Tooth polishing is an integral part of clinical dentistry. The main purpose of polishing is to smoothen the surface of the tooth and minimize the deposition of plaque to allow a healthy periodontal maintenance postscaling. Today, polishing by

Histology of human cementum: Its structure, function, and development

Japanese Dental Science Review, 2016
Cementum was first demonstrated by microscopy, about 180 years ago. Since then the biology of cementum has been investigated by the most advanced techniques and equipment at that time in various fields of dental sciences. A great deal of data on cementum

Cementum attachment protein‐derived peptide induces cementum formation [PDF]

FASEB BioAdvances
A pentapeptide AVIFM (CAP‐p5) derived from the carboxy‐terminus end of cementum attachment protein was examined for its role on proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization of human periodontal ligament cells (HPLC), and for its potential to induce

Coronal Cementum and Reduced Enamel Epithelium on Occlusal Surface of Impacted Wisdom Tooth in a Human [PDF]

Dentistry Journal
Background: There is only limited research on the coronal cementum of a tooth, and the mechanisms of its forming process are not well-defined. This report presents a coronal cementum on the occlusal surfaces of enamel in an impacted wisdom tooth in a ...

What do rates of deposition of dental cementum tell us? Functional and evolutionary hypotheses in red deer.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Cementum is a bone connective tissue that provides a flexible attachment for the tooth to the alveolar bone in many mammalian species. It does not undergo continuous remodelling, unlike non-dental bone, which combined with its growth pattern of seasonal ...

Coronal Displacement of Cementum in Impacted Teeth and Its Correlation to Age: A Preliminary Study

Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2010
Structural changes occur throughout life in enamel, dentine, and cementum with continuous cementum apposition. Erupted teeth are directly affected by environmental and ageing process as opposed to impacted teeth. Cementum deposition on a healthy tooth is

New Insights on the Composition and the Structure of the Acellular Extrinsic Fiber Cementum by Raman Analysis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Acellular extrinsic fiber cementum is a mineralized tissue that covers the cervical half of the tooth root surface. It contains mainly extrinsic or Sharpey's fibers that run perpendicular to the root surface to anchor the tooth via the periodontal ...
