- Root (of the tooth)
The root is located underneath the tooth crown and anchors the tooth in the dental alveolus.
Blood vessels and nerve fibres penetrate into the roots of the teeth. These vessels and fibres exit through an opening and pass into the alveolar bone. The number of roots depends on the type of tooth: incisors and canines only have one, while molars have two or three.
