The transseptal fibers are a type of periodontal ligament fiber that run between the cementum of adjacent teeth. They help maintain the interproximal relationship between teeth and provide support to the gingival tissue. These fibers are important for the stability of the dental arch and help resist the forces that may cause teeth to drift apart.

• Circular group fibers encircle the tooth.
• Horizontal group fibers run horizontally between the tooth and the alveolar bone.
• Oblique group fibers run from the cementum to the bone at an angle, providing resistance to vertical forces.

Prevotella intermedia and P. melaninogenicus (now known as Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans) are both anaerobic bacteria that can be found in the oral cavity and are involved in the pathogenesis of periodontal diseases, including dentoalveolar abscesses. Fusobacterium nucleatum is another anaerobic bacterium commonly found in dental plaque and is associated with various oral infections, including dentoalveolar abscesses.
