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