Bone Cells and Tissue01:30

Bone Cells and Tissue

12.5K
Bones contain a relatively small number of cells entrenched in a matrix of organic and inorganic components. Although bone cells compose only a small amount of the bone volume, they are crucial to its function. Four types of cells are found within the bone tissue— osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteogenic cells, and osteoclasts.
Osteoblasts and Osteocytes
The osteoblast is the bone cell responsible for forming new bone tissue. It is found in the growing portions of bone, including the...

Tooth Anatomy

2.8K
The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...

Osteoclasts in Bone Remodeling01:31

Osteoclasts in Bone Remodeling

3.9K
Osteoclasts are cells responsible for bone resorption and remodeling. They originate from hematopoietic progenitor cells present in the bone marrow. Numerous progenitor cells fuse to form multinucleated cells, each with 10-20 nuclei. A single osteoclast has a diameter of 150 to 200 µM. These cells have ruffled borders that break down the underlying bone tissue and release minerals such as calcium into the blood in bone resorption. Osteoclasts cling to bones with their ruffled edges during...

Oral Cavity01:11

Oral Cavity

3.8K
The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

Compact Bone01:27

Compact Bone

22.4K
Most bones contain compact and spongy osseous tissue, but their distribution and concentration vary based on the bone's overall function.
Compact bone, also called cortical bone, is the denser, stronger of the two types of bone tissue. It is found under the periosteum and in the diaphyses of long bones, where it provides support and protection. The microscopic structural unit of compact bone is called an osteon, or haversian system. Each osteon is composed of concentric rings of calcified...

Bone Formation by Endochondral Ossification01:24

Bone Formation by Endochondral Ossification

14.6K
Bone formation, or ossification, begins around the sixth to seventh week of embryonic development. Most bones develop from a cartilaginous template through the process of endochondral ossification. Cartilage formation begins when clusters of mesenchymal cells differentiate into chondrocytes. These chondrocytes proliferate rapidly and secrete an extracellular matrix that becomes encased in a membrane called the perichondrium. The resulting cartilage model provides a template that resembles the...

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology
  • Odontogenic Neoplasms

Background:

  • Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a rare, benign, slow-growing odontogenic neoplasm.
  • CEOT exhibits local aggressiveness, invading bone and soft tissues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a case of CEOT in a 21-year-old female patient.
  • To describe the clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings of CEOT.

Main Methods:

  • Computerized tomography (CT) for lesion visualization.
  • Incisional biopsy for histopathological analysis.
  • Surgical resection with safety margins.

Main Results:

  • CT revealed a hypodense lesion with hyperdense areas in the left mandibular posterior region.
  • Histopathology confirmed CEOT (Pindborg tumor) with epithelial cells, amyloid-like material, and Liesegang rings.
  • No recurrence was noted at 6-month follow-up post-resection.

Conclusions:

  • CEOT is a rare entity requiring accurate diagnosis and surgical management.
  • Complete resection with adequate margins is crucial for preventing recurrence.
