How Do Cementoblasts Contribute to Root Formation?
Following the disintegration of HERS, the dental follicle cells come into contact with the root dentin. These cells differentiate into cementoblasts, which are responsible for secreting cementum. Cementum is a mineralized tissue that covers the root dentin and plays a crucial role in anchoring the tooth to the alveolar bone via the periodontal ligament.
