Diagram of root formation in single rooted tooth?
Root formation in a single-rooted tooth involves several stages. Initially, the dental papilla and dental follicle contribute to the development of the root. As odontoblasts differentiate, they begin to produce dentin, while the root sheath (Hertwig's epithelial root sheath) shapes the root's outline. Finally, cementoblasts produce cementum, which covers the root surface, anchoring it within the alveolar bone. This process is crucial for establishing the tooth's stability and function.
