What is Understanding the Periodontium Structure about?
The periodontium is made up of the tissues that surround and support the teeth, including the gum, periodontal ligament, root cementum, and alveolar bone. These tissues are divided into protective periodontium (gum and junctional epithelium) and insertion periodontium (cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone), which have different embryological origins and functions to keep the teeth in position. The gum covers the alveolar bone and protects the underlying tissues.
