WebbA classification of Sharpey's fibers within the alveolar bone of the mouse: a high-voltage electron microscope study In the remodeling interdental septum of the mouse, four types of Sharpey's fibers were observed. WebbDiscussion. anulus fibrosus makes up peripheral portion of disk structure; composed of fibrocartilage and type I collagen; fibers of anulus run obliquely between vertebrae and are arranged primarily in concentric layers; direction of the fibers in successive layers alternates, w/ one layer crossing another at angles of 30-60 deg; sm1fc - fc/pc

A classification of Sharpey

WebbPeriosteum and cementum. [ edit] My understanding is that Sharpey's fibers insert into BOTH the periosteum of the alveolar socket and the cementum, essentially connecting the PDL with these surfaces. They are the "insertion fibers". I believe the article as it currently reads is unclear. WebbSharpey's fibres in the primary acellular cementum are mineralized fully; those in cellular cementum and bone are mineralized only partially at their periphery. In the skull the main function of Sharpey's fibres is to bind the cranial bones in a firm but moveable manner; they are most numerous in areas where the bones are subjected to the greatest forces … sold customer
