The hard form of connective tissue that constitutes the majority of the skeleton of most vertebrates.(1) Second only to cartilage in its ability to withstand stress.

COMPACT BONE
Composed of dense and concentrically arranged bony trabeculae or lamella. More solid with fewer cavities.

Immature bone /Fibrous bone : These have more cells & fibers in them. In humans they are found only in fetus, sockets of alveolar bone, sutures of the skull. Mature bone /Lamellar bone: The type of bone which are composed of thin plates (lamellae) of bony tissue. Most mature human bones are lamellar bones.

Composition of bones
35% Organic
Composed of minerals calcium & phosphate, along with hydroxyl, carbonate, citrate & trace amount of other ions,(2) such as sodium, magnesium & fluorine.
Bone is formed by the Organic Components of the hardening of the matrix, Bone Matrix entrapping the cells. When these cells become entrapped from Collagen osteoblasts they become osteocytes. The organic matrix of bone is about:
90% collagen(3) 10% non-collagenous proteins.
Noncollagenous proteins
Contributes towards the important biomechanical properties of tissue in terms of resisting loads and providing necessary resilience that prevents fractures. The dominant collagen in bone is Type I. Intrinsic collagen collagen as secreted by osteoblasts.
are a heterogeneous group which vary from entrapped serum protein to glycoproteins. play a role in mineralization. The main non-collagenous proteins comprise of: Proteoglycans Osteonectin (SPARC)/(BM40) Osteocalcin (BGLAP) Glycoproteins Bone morphogenic proteins Bone Sialoproteins (BSP)
Alveolar bone or alveolar process is that portion of maxilla and mandible that supports the roots of the tooth.
If the teeth are lost the alveolar process disappears. It is composed of two parts the alveolar bone proper and the supporting bone.
Since the alveolar process develop & undergo remodeling with the tooth formation & eruption, they are tooth dependent bony structures.(2)
alveolar process contains a region of compact bone adjacent to the periodontal ligament called LAMINA
The
DURA.
It
is called processus alveolaris in maxila and pars alveolaris in the mandible bone.
Alveolar
bone develops from the dental follicle. (4) ectomesenchymal cells of the dental follicle differentiate into osteoblasts and lay down the matrix called osteoid. osteoblasts become embedded in the matrix and are called osteocytes
The
Some
Near the end of the 2nd month of fetal life, mandible and maxilla form a groove that is opened toward the surface of the oral cavity. As tooth germs start to develop, bony septa form gradually. The alveolar process starts developing strictly during tooth eruption. (4)
It supports the tooth roots on the facial and on the palatal/lingual sides. It is the one responsible for the separation of teeth from mesial to distal. Also contributes to absorption and distribution of occlusal pressure produced in tooth to tooth contact.
Bone cells
Osteoprogenitor cells stem cells Osteoblasts forms bone Osteocytes maintains bone Osteoclasts resorbs bone
Stem cells derived from the mesenchyme.(5) Possess mitotic potential and the ability to differentiate into mature bone cells. Resemble mesenchymal cells and are spindleshaped, with pale-staining elongated nuclei and sparse cytoplasm (small amount of rough ER and poorly developed golgi complex). Mostly found in the inner portion of the periosteum, in the endosteum, and within vascular canals of compact bone.(4)
Uninucleated cells . Synthesize both collagenous and noncollagenous bone proteins.(6) Osteoblasts also synthesize the enzyme alkaline phosphatase, which is needed locally for the mineralization of osteoid. The precursor cell of the osteoblast is the preosteoblast. (7) Osteoblasts have all the characteristics of hard tissue-forming cells. When the bone is no longer forming, the surfaces of the osteoblasts become inactive and are called Lining cells.
are osteoblasts secreted in the bone matrixes that are entrapped in lacunae.(8) An osteocyte lies in its own lacuna and contacts its neighboring osteocytes cytoplasmically through canaliculi. The most important function of osteoblastosteocyte complex is to prevent hypomineralization of bone by continually pumping calcium back to the bloodstream.(9)
Derived from a monocytic-macrophage system, which are responsible for bone resorbtion.(10) They are multinucleated cells with fine, fingerlike cytoplasmic processes and are rich in lysosomes that contain tartrateresistant acid phosphatase (TRAP).(11) Osteoclasts lie in resorbtion craters known as Howships lacunae on bone surfaces or in deep resorption cavities called cutting cones. These bone cells can only resorb mineralized bone matrix.
Bone matrix consists of organic and inorganic components.(12) The association of these substances gives bone its hardness and resistance. The organic component is composed of collagen fibers with predominately type I collagen (95%) and amorphous material, including glycosaminoglycans that are associated with proteins.(4)
Osteoid is uncalcified organic matrix. Inorganic matter represents about 50% of the dry weight of bone matrix. composed of abundant calcium and phosphorus, as well as smaller amounts of bicarbonate, citrate, magnesium, potassium, and sodium.(4) Calcium forms hydroxyapatite crystals with phosphorus but is also present in an amorphous form.
Concentrically arranged bony lamellae Types of layering (lamella) Circumferential lamella external, internal Concentric/Haversian lamella Interstitial or Intermediate lamella
Continuous uninterrupted layer found immediately beneath the periosteum around the circumference of the bone.
Continuous
Found in between haversian systems. Triangular or irregularly shaped groups of parallel lamella. May represent lamella left by former haversian systems destroyed during growth and remodelling of bone.
Composed of small central canal (HAVERSIAN CANAL) which is in constant communication with the blood vessels.(4) Surrounding the canal are concentric bony lamella called haversian lamella.
A bright thin line called CEMENTING LINE separates one haversian system from another. Haversian systems or OSTEONES (OSTEON) are found underneath the periosteal lamella.
Canals that are not surrounded by bony lamella.(4) Traverse the bone in a direction perpendicular or oblique to the lamella. Larger than haversian canals.
Sharpey's fibers are the terminal ends of principal fibers (of the periodontal ligament) that insert into the cementum and into the periosteum of the alveolar bone.(13) A study on rats suggests that the three-dimensional structure of Sharpey's fibers intensifies the continuity between the periodontal ligament fiber and the alveolar bone (tooth socket), and acts as a buffer medium against stress.
GROSS MORPHOLOGY
Also called Dental alveolus. are sockets in the jaws in which the roots of teeth are held in the alveolar process with the periodontal ligament.
Interdental Septa
Septa in Latin, it means fence or wall Are plates of bone that separate each individual sockets from one another.(14)
Inter-radicular Septa
Are thin plates of bone that separate the roots of multi-rooted teeth.
also called as bundle bone. A type of alveolar bone so called because of the Bundle pattern caused by continuation of principal (Sharpeys) fibers into it.(1)
Is the compact layer of bone lining the tooth socket (alveolar socket).
Reflects the sieve-like appearance produced by numerous Volkmanns canals passing from the alveolar bone to the PDL (periodontal ligament). Numerous Sharpeys Fiber pass through it.
a) outer cortical plates b) a central spongiosa c) bone lining the alveolus (bundle bone)
Outer bony plate of varying thickness, which is the outside wall of the maxilla and mandible, covered with periosteum.
Continuous with the lamina cribriformis at the orifice of the alveoli alveolar crest.
Are spongy (or cancellous/trabecullar) bone between the 2 bony plates and between the lamina cribriformis of adjacent teeth or roots. Consists of delicate trabeculae, between which are marrow spaces, filled mostly with fatty marrow. Regions of maxillary tuberosity and the angle of mandible.
Contains osteons like other cortical bone, but is distinguished by the presence of Bundle Bone.
Periosteum consist of an inner layer composed of osteoblasts,surrounded by osteoprogenitor cells & an outer layer rich in blood vessles , nerves & composed of collagen fibers & fibroblasts. The endosteum is composed of single layer of osteoblasts & sometimes small amount of connective tissue.
