==Introduction==
Cementoblasts are cells in the enamel organ which forms the tooth. They secrete [[Cementum - Anatomy & Physiology|cementum]].
==Properties==
*Epithelial cells near the distal end of the cup
*Become follicle cells
*Synthesise [[Cementum - Anatomy & Physiology|cementum]] which mostly contains collagen I
*[[Cementum - Anatomy & Physiology|Cementum]] surrounds the [[Dentine - Anatomy & Physiology|dentine]] of the [[Root - Anatomy & Physiology|root]]
*[[Cementum - Anatomy & Physiology|Cementum]] is acellular and not readily absorbed.
