Cementum involved in periodontal disease: a review of its features and clinical management

Immunohistochemical Study of Bone Sialoprotein and Osteopontin in Healthy and Diseased Root Surfaces

“…The apparent distribution and staining for BSP along the cementum surface did not vary substantially from the corono‐cervical aspect (acellular cementum) to the apical portion (cellular cementum). This is somewhat in contrast to a number of earlier studies examining the localization of BSP in the developing rat periodontium 1,3 . These earlier studies demonstrated that both types of cementum were different with respect to their protein content, as BSP and OPN are abundant in acellular afibrillar and acellular extrinsic fiber cementum compared to cellular intrinsic fiber cementum where less is evident 1 …”

“…Several studies have attempted to find differences between the cementum of healthy and periodontally involved teeth 1,3 . No differences have been found in terms of surface characteristics, hardness, permeability, and amino‐acid composition 3 . However, a hypermineralized surface zone, 10 to 20 μm wide, was demonstrated in the cementum of exposed teeth 37 .…”

Adjunctive Drug-Loaded Gel Application in the Treatment of Periodontitis: A Systematic Evaluation and Meta-Analysis

“…Subgingival scaling and root planning are effective methods for the surgical treatment of periodontitis, which can completely remove calculus and plaque microorganisms from the cementum surface [30].…”

Comparative Immunohistochemical Study of the Distribution of Fibronectin in Healthy and Diseased Root Surfaces

“…The destruction of connective tissue, bone loss, and the loss of connective tissue attachment to cementum are the hallmarks of periodontal disease. Significant evidence supports a strong correlation between periodontal disease and diseased or altered cementum 2–6 …”
