Correct Answer: Cementum


Solution : The correct answer is Cementum.

A specific calcified material called cementum coats a tooth's root. The portion of the periodontium called the cementum anchors the periodontal ligament, which holds the teeth to the alveolar bone. Cementocytes, or imprisoned cementoblasts, are the cells that make up the cementum.
