Bone Flashcards
Alveolar Bone Proper a.k.a. (2)
Cribriform Plate
or Bundle Bone
The cribriform plate is formed as a result of
attachment of the PDL fibers and passage of
vessels and nerves into and out of the PDL.
The term bundle bone refers to
that bone in
which Sharpey’s fibers (PDL) are embedded.
Woven Bone
• Immature bone in which the collagen fiber matrix is
randomly oriented. This type of bone is generally newly
formed (embryologic development) or associated with
healing wounds.
Woven Bone (3)
§ More cells per unit area than mature bone
§ Greater volume of non-collagenous protein
§ Forms more rapidly than mature bone
Spongiosa (a.k.a. Cancellous)
• Trabecular bone that lies between the cortical plates and
within the marrow spaces.
Supporting Alveolar Bone
•Facial and lingual cortical
plates
•Facial and lingual cortical
plates (3)
§ Lamellar bone
§ Haversian bone
§ Interstitial bone

Cells Associated With Bone (7)
Ø Osteoblasts Ø Osteocytes Ø Osteoclasts Ø Bone Lining Cells Ø Chondroblasts Ø Chondrocytes Ø Mesenchymal Cells
Osteocyte is an
osteoblast that has been entrapped by it’s own osteoid matrix
Canaliculi –
radiate in all directions, and allow diffusion of substances
throughout bone. Processes of the osteocytes travel within the canaliculi,
and connect to other osteocytes/osteoblasts, allowing cell-to-cell
communication. May have some mechanoreception properties, as well
Periosteum
A dense connective tissue, bound to bone by Sharpey’s fibers,
that contains blood vessels, nerves, and three cell layers:
Periosteum
A dense connective tissue, bound to bone by Sharpey’s fibers,
that contains blood vessels, nerves, and three cell layers:
§ Peripheral cell layer of fibroblasts
§ Intermediate cell layer of undifferentiated
mesenchymal cells
§ Proximal cell layer of osteoblasts
Endosteum
Lines the meduallary cavity and cancellous bone (trabeculae).
Generally has the same composition as periosteum but is
significantly thinner
Type I
Fibrillar: ubiquitous in distribution
Type II
Fibrillar: primarily a cartilage protein
Type III
Fibrillar: granulation and mesenchymal
tissues
Type V
Fibrillar: stromal connective tissue and promotes cellular attachment and migration
Type X
Growth Plate: facilitates conversion of
cartilage to bone

Non-collagenous proteins associated
with bone matrix include:
Ø Osteonectin Ø Osteopontin Ø Osteocalcin Ø Sialoprotein Ø Phosphoprotein Ø Glycoprotein Ø Proteoglycan Ø Bone Specific Protein Ø Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) Ø Carboxyglutamic acid containing protein
The non-collagenous matrix proteins of bone
are characterized by their:
(3)
Ø highly acidic nature
Ø high aggregation tendencies
Ø calcium binding properties
In-Situ Remodelling
A process of osteoclast resorption, and bone
replacement by osteoblast activity. Mostly seen in
areas of alveolar bone affected by orthodontics.
