A text-book of dental histology and embryology, including laboratory directions . re of a pyorrhea case, therefore, becomes abiological problem. In this connection it is important toremember that a surface of cementum which has long beenbathed in pus may be so filled with poison that no cell canlie in contact with it and perform its functions. Osteoblasts.—The osteoblasts of the peridental membraneare exactly like osteoblasts in other positions. They coverthe surface of the bone of the alveolar wall lying betweenthe fibers which are embedded in it. Even in the youngsubject they are not found in every position, while in anadjoining area the surface of the bone may be covered withthem. In the old subject they are generally absent or havebeen reduced to flattened scales, which are very difficult todemonstrate; but even in these cases areas will be found inwhich osteoblasts are present. These are areas of active 298 THE PERIDENTAL MEMBRANE bone formation. The osteoblasts lay down bone exactlyas occurs in attached portions of the periosteum, but after Fig. 230 PdM PdB.
