Reparative process begins at
approximately the same time as the injury
Healing proceeds after
inflammatory debris has been removed
Healing occurs by
Regeneration or Replacement
Regeneration is when
the defect is gradually repaired by proliferation of the same type of cells as those destroyed
Replacement is when
cells of another type, usually connective tissue, fill in the tissue defect and result in scar formation which is not very pliable
