On this week’s episode of Fast Facts – Perio Edition your host, Katrina Sanders, RDH talks to us the CEJ or Cemento Enamel Junction.

 

Quotes: 

 

So the current Darby text actually states that 76 percent of our patient population, we see a meet’s where the cementum and the enamel meet 14 percent of our population we see that overlap and 10 percent of our patients, we see a gap.”

 

“So because of this morphological diversity, there’s a call to action within the dental community that we need to be careful about dental interventions in the region of the CEJ because there could be other pathological changes or hypersensitivity of the teeth associated with the CEJ.”
