diseased (cementum)
cemento deteriorado o dañado


Explanation:
Teniendo en cuenta que el texto es de odontología, sabemos que ese cementum es el tejido conjuntivo natural que recubre la raíz dental.
Así pues, mi propuesta para ese diseased sería deteriorado o, como ya ha indicado el compañero, dañado o afectado.
