State about Bone physiology
Bone physiology that is most relevant to the study of mechanically mediated bone adaptation and its relevance in implant dentistry. These aspects include bone cells and what they do, the different aspects of bone adaptation including osteogenesis, modeling and remodeling, and description of surfaces on which remodeling can occur. We will basically describe what potential exists for alterations of bone structure based on whether the bone is undergoing osteogenesis, modeling and remodeling. This physiologic potential will determine how mechanics may affect bone structure.
