Calcification can manifest itself in many ways in the body depending on the location. In the pulpal structure of a tooth, calcification often presents asymptomatically, and is diagnosed as an incidental finding during radiographic interpretation. Individual teeth with calcified pulp will typically respond negatively to vitality testing; te
Bone tissue is a dynamic system with active metabolism. [24] Bone tissue remodelling or bone remodeling is a successive chain of old bone matrix removal and its replacement with a new one. [25] These processes make a child’s skeleton grow and extend, while childhood is characterized by bone tissue growth rather than its resorption.
A primary ossification center is the first area of a bone to start ossifying. It usually appears during prenatal development in the central part of each developing bone. In long bones the primary centers occur in the diaphysis/shaft and in irregular bones the primary centers occur usually in the body of the bone. Most bones have only one ...
Forams first appeared approximately 170 million years ago, and populate oceans globally. Forams are microscopic organisms, typically no larger than 1 mm in length. [25] The calcification and dissolution of their shells causes changes both in the surface seawater carbonate chemistry, and in deep-water chemistry. [25]
Wolff's law, developed by the German anatomist and surgeon Julius Wolff (1836–1902) in the 19th century, states that bone in a healthy animal will adapt to the loads under which it is placed. [1] If loading on a particular bone increases, the bone will remodel itself over time to become stronger to resist that sort of loading.
At the Natural Funeral, Viddal says the vessel is about 3 feet wide by 3 feet deep and 7 feet long — slightly larger than a traditional casket. Then the person’s body is placed in the vessel.
These mesenchymal stem cells then differentiate into chondrocytes, and osteoblasts, resulting in bone formation in soft tissues. [5] The process of myositis ossificans can be divided into three stages: early, intermediate, and mature. The early phase occurs in the first four weeks of injury with inflammatory phase of bone formation.
It’s that time of year again. On Sunday, Nov. 5, daylight saving time ends and we set our clocks back an hour. Even though we’re gaining an hour — and there tend to be more health risks ...
