On the discovery of cementum [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, 2017
Though cementum of the tooth root is critical for periodontal structure and tooth attachment and function, this tissue was not discovered and characterized on human teeth until a full century later than enamel and dentin. Early observations from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries by Marcello Malpighi, Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, Robert Blake ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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

Adaptive properties of human cementum and cementum dentin junction with age [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2014
The objective of this study was to evaluate age related changes in physical (structure/mechanical properties) and chemical (elemental/inorganic mineral content) properties of cementum layers interfacing dentin.Human mandibular molars (N=43) were collected and sorted by age (younger=19-39, middle=40-60, older=61-81 years).

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

open access: yesJapanese 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

Controlled release of recombinant human cementum protein 1 from electrospun multiphasic scaffold for cementum regeneration [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, 2016
Periodontitis is a major cause for tooth loss, which affects about 15% of the adult population. Cementum regeneration has been the crux of constructing the periodontal complex.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

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

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Estimating ages of white‐tailed deer: Age and sex patterns of error using tooth wear‐and‐replacement and consistency of cementum annuli

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2014
The age structure of harvested animals provides the basis for many demographic analyses. Ages of harvested white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and other ungulates often are estimated by evaluating replacement and wear patterns of teeth, which is ...

Cementum is key to periodontal tissue regeneration: A review on apatite microstructures for creation of novel cementum‐based dental implants

open access: yesGenesis, 2023
The cementum is the outermost layer of hard tissue covering the dentin within the root portion of the teeth. It is the only hard tissue with a specialized structure and function that forms a part of both the teeth and periodontal tissue.
