📌 POINTS TO PONDER 

🔹Intermediate plexus (Sicher 1966): Fibers arising from cementum and bone are joined in the mid region of periodontal ligament space giving rise to a zone of distinct appearance in the light microscope. 

🔹It was believed that the intermediate plexus provides a site where rapid remodeling of fibers occurs, allowing 

adjustment in the ligament to be made to accommodate small movements of tooth. However, evidence derived from an electron microscope provides no support for this and was believed to be an artifact.
