The peridental membrane, pericementum, or the alveolo-dental perios-teum (Fig. 190), is a -fibrous connective-tissue structure which covers orinvests the root of the tooth from the cervix to the apical foramen (), just as the periosteum invests the bones (Fig. 192) and lines thewalls of the alveoli, having few elastic fibres, and richly supplied with.
