'''Cementoblasts''' are cells in the '''[[Enamel Organ#Enamel|enamel]]''' organ which forms the tooth. They secrete '''[[Enamel Organ#Cementum|cementum]]'''.
 
 
 
==Properties==
 
 
 
Epithelial cells are present near the distal end of the cup. They become follicle cells. '''Cementoblasts''' synthesise [[Enamel Organ#Cementum|cementum]] which mostly contains '''collagen I'''.
 
 
 
[[Enamel Organ#Cementum|Cementum]] surrounds the '''[[Enamel Organ#Dentine|dentine]]''' of the [[Enamel Organ#Root|root]]. [[Enamel Organ#Cementum|Cementum]] is acellular and not readily absorbed.
