Whereas periodontal disease is a locally occurring immunoinflammatory response “body attacks self‚” to bacteria in the oral cavity resulting in alveolar bone “ the thickened ridge of bone that contains the tooth socket on the bone that holds teeth the maxilla and the mandible‚” loss.

In the early stages of the disease‚ bone loss occurs without symptoms. But once bones have been weak enough by osteoporosis‚ signs and symptoms may develop and include: • Back pain‚ caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebrae. • Loss of height over time. • A kyphotic posture. • A bone fracture that occurs much more easily than expected. Osteoporosis occurs in many people who have few or no risk factors for this condition. Often‚ patients do not report symptoms that would alert the clinician to

Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak & brittle due to low bone mass & bone tissue deterioration. Chronic & progressive Most common origin of bone disease in U.S. Fractures transpire easily. Primary cause of fractures in elderly. Bone formation should match bone resorption. Osteoblasts Build (form) new bone & generate organic matrix & mineralize bone. Osteoclasts Breaks down bone & cause bone resorption. Osteocytes Maintain bone by directing when/where bone remodeling is to occur. Parathyroid

Osteogenesis Imperfecta: Brittle Bone Disease Sami Gizara Lakeland High School Honors Biology Block 6 March 10‚ 2013 Current Applications in Science Abstract (Summary and Background) Osteogenesis Imperfecta was a severe‚ congenital genetic disorder which can cause the human bones to be extremely delicate. This disease is caused by a mutation(whether it be deletion or duplication) in chromosome 17q21‚ 31-q22‚ 7q22.1‚ which are the chromosomes that help the body produce the proteins

BONE FRACTURES A fracture is a complete or incomplete break in a bone resulting from the application of excessive force. A bone fracture is a medical condition in which there is a break in the continuity of the bone. They are injuries of bone tissue‚ which compromise their ability to support the body. It can be the result of high force impact or stress‚ or trivial injury as a result of certain medical conditions that weaken the bones‚ such as osteoporosis‚ bone cancer‚ or osteogenesis imperfecta

The 5 Regions 1. The proximal epiphysis is the growing over. It’s the top part of the bone; every other part of the bone is in between the proximal and distal. 2. The metaphases epiphyseal are the mature bones were the diaphysis joins the epiphyseal in the growth plate while the bone is still growing. 3. The main part of the bone is called the diaphysisit it is in the midsection of a long bone. It typically contains bone marrow. 4. The metaphysic is a growing bone when it stops growing the cartilage

Facet Syndrome Facet syndrome is a condition in which joints (facet joints) that connect the bones of the spine (vertebrae) become damaged. Facet joints help the spine move‚ and they usually wear down (degenerate) or become inflamed as you age. This can cause pain and stiffness in the neck (cervical facet syndrome) or in the lower back (lumbar facet syndrome). When a facet joint becomes damaged‚ a vertebra may slip forward‚ out of its normal place in the spine. Damage to a facet joint can also

The following will cover the effects‚ causes and the treatments for the genetic disorder‚ Osteogenesis Imperfecta. The term Osteogenesis Imperfecta means imperfect bone formation. Also known as brittle bone disease‚ OI‚ and Vrolik disease‚ osteogenesis imperfecta causes people to have weak bones. OI can also affect the body in other ways such as hearing‚ bone deformities‚ loose joints‚ discolored sclera( the whites of your eyes)‚ and spine curvature. The severity of the disease can vary depending
