Illustrate the types of Bone Remodeling
Bone remodeling occurs on existing bone surfaces. However, unlike modeling, remodeling cannot cause large changes in bone structure at a given site.
Remodeling is accomplished by
a) Teams of 10 osteoclasts and hundreds of osteoblasts
b) Teams are called basic multicellular units (BMUs)
The cellular interactions associated with a remodeling cycle are divided into four main events which follow the resting state(Quiescence); activation, resorption, reversal and formation
