- Cementicle abstract "A cementicle is a small, spherical or ovoid calcified mass embedded within or attached to the cementum layer on the root surface of a tooth, or lying free within the periodontal ligament. They tend to occur in elderly individuals.There are 3 types: Free cementicle - not attached to cementum Attached (sessile) cementicle - attached to the cementum surface (also termed exocementosis) Embedded (interstitial) cementicle - with advancing age the cementum thickens, and the cementicle may become encorporated into the cementum layerThey may be visible on a radiograph (x-ray). They may appear singly or in groups, and are most commonly found at the tip of the root. Their size is variable, but generally they are small (about 0.2 mm - 0.3 mm in diameter).Cementicles are usually acellular, and may contain either fibrillar or afibrillar cementum, or a mixture of both. Cementicles are the result of dystrophic calcification, but the reason why this takes place is unclear. Cementicles are thought to form when calcification occurs around a nidus, a precipitating center. Around this nidus they slowly enlarge by further deposition of calcium salts. Examples of how cementicles are thought to form include: Calcification due to degenerative changes in the epithelial cell rests of Malassez Calcification of thrombosed (blocked) capillaries in the periodontal ligament (i.e. a phlebolith) Microtrauma to Sharpey's fibres causes small spicules of cementum or alveolar bone to splinter into the periodontal membrane Some do not consider these as true cementicles.↑ 1.0 1.1 ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 ↑ 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.3 ↑ 4.0 4.1 ↑ 5.00 5.01 5.02 5.03 5.04 5.05 5.06 5.07 5.08 5.09 5.10 5.11 ↑ 6.0 6.1 6.2 6.3".
