    The first stage is an oedema of the bone marrow initiated by a bone infarct, which is itself modulated by numerous causes, leading to myelofibrosis as a result of hypoxia and gradual loss of bone density characteristic of ischaemic osteoporosis. Further deterioration can be triggered by additional bone infarcts leading to anoxia and localized ...

    Generalized bone loss occurs most frequently as horizontal bone loss. [2] Horizontal bone loss manifests as a somewhat even degree of bone resorption so that the height of the bone in relation to the teeth has been uniformly decreased, as indicated in the radiograph to the rig defects occur adjacent to a tooth and usually in the form of a triangular area of missing bone, known as triangulation.

    Periapical COD occurs most commonly in the mandibular anterior teeth while focal COD appears predominantly in the mandibular posterior teeth. Florid COD is an extensive variant of periapical COD where lesions occur in multiple quadrants which can encompass the maxilla and mandible, and infrequently can cause jawbone deformity. [1]

  7. Bone resorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_resorption

    Physiological bone resorption is an integral part of bone functioning, while the bone is constantly growing thanks to two processes — breakdown and formation of bone tissue. [23] Locally, it could be manifested in tooth eruption when the movement of a tooth follicle is followed by an active resorption of jaw bone tissue.
