What is the connective tissue that covers the root of a tooth?

Its many strong fibers are embedded in the cementum and also the wall of the tooth socket

What part of a Tooth rises above the gum?

The portion of a tooth that rises above the gum is the crown; the portion below is the root

The crown is covered by enamel, which is related to the epithelial tissue of the skin and is the hardest substance in the human body

The surface of the root is composed of a bonelike tissue called cementum

The tooth is made up of a crown and either single or multiple roots. The anterior teeth in both the upper and the lower jaws, from the right first premolar to the left first premolar, are single rooted teeth. On the upper jaw, the maxillary second premolar may have two roots and all of the maxillary molars have two to three roots.

All eight incisors share a general tooth anatomy, consisting of a crown that is continued by the root. The crown is covered by enamel, while the root is covered by cementum. The body of the tooth consists almost entirely of dentine which surrounds a central pulp cavity.
