infectious disease of periodontum. Gingivitis is a disease which arise when there is an inflammation in the ginigival epithelium as well in the connective tissue. When this inflammation start to cause destruction in periodontal connective tissue and the bone which support the tooth then this situation called periodontitis.

to resorption or deposition of bone‚ whereas the latter refers to the resorption or reinforcement of lamellar bone within the existing osteons \cite{Cowin1976}. \end{sloppypar} Bone Remodelling involves three types of cells‚ osteoblasts‚ osteocytes and osteoclasts. Following the osteoblastic process‚ the osteoblasts develop into lacunae‚ otherwise known as osteocytes. These are responsible for the provision of calcium and other ions between the blood plasma and bone minerals \cite{mclean1968fundamentals}

December 18th‚ 2013 Block 8 Body Tissues Essay There are four major categories of tissues in the human body. Each of them separate into even smaller groups with specific structures and functions. The four major types are epithelial tissue‚ connective tissue‚ muscle tissue and cardiac tissue. They are all necessities of the human body and contribute to many functions our bodies and cells carry out in order to survive. Tissues interact and group together to make up organs which then compose systems

injuries such as bone fractures or ligament injuries require intensive care as well as a substantial amount of time for recovery. Sports horses by very nature have a higher percentage to encounter such injuries. These injuries can become a huge problem not only physically‚ but can also determine the lifespan of the injured horse. In Equine‚ the suspensory ligaments consist of a strong band of tendon-like tissue that lies along the back of the cannon bone between the splint bones (ucsdavis pg 4).

Osteoporosis is a condition of low bone density that can progress silently over a long period of time. Osteoporosis has no symptoms until a fracture occurs‚ which causes bone pain‚ height loss‚ and abnormal spine curvature. If a fracture is determined to be due to osteoporosis‚ it is considered a pathological fracture‚ which is a break of a diseased or weakened bone without any identifiable trauma or following a minor injury that would not ordinarily break a healthy bone (Manolagas). If diagnosed early

Further damage to the joint is visible due to the onset of arthritis - a bone/joint disease. Orthopedic surgery or orthopedics (also spelled orthopaedic surgery and orthopaedics) is the branch of surgery concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system.
