The non-fibrillar matrix and its role in the origin, maintenance and tissue regeneration. Odontoestomatología [online]. 2023, vol.25, n.42, 330.  Epub 01-Dic-2023.

Cementum is a connective tissue with the particularity that its organic matrix is​​mineralized. Within its components it is possible to identify the cementoblasts, the cementocytes and in certain conditions the cementoclasts. In the organic matrix there are two components, one fibrillar, represented mainly by collagen type I, and another non-fibrillar, which includes diverse molecules capable of producing a varied number of functions. Being a mineralized connective, the hydroxyapatite articulates with the organic matrix to produce this mineralization.

The objective of this work is to update the histological-molecular characteristics of cement, and especially the non-fibrillar extracellular matrix components, and how these contribute to maintenance and tissue regeneration.

Palabras clave : Cementum/ non-fibrillary matrix/ Regeneration.
