    The periodontal ligament is the dense fibrous connective tissue that occupies the periodontal space between the root of the tooth and the alveolus.

    Width of the periodontal ligament: It ranges from 0.15-0.21 mm. The widest region at the alveolar crest and the narrowest at the midroot ( Fulcrum ).
