Calcium hydroxide

The different chemicals that were used in this experiment were Pilocarpine, Atropine Sulfate, Epinephrine, Digitals, Potassium, Sodium, and calcium ion concertation. Pilocarpine stimulates the effect of parasympathetic nerve stimulation by enhancing acetylcholine release. Atropine Sulfate is a drug that blocks the effect of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine which is liberated by the parasympathetic nerve endings. Cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle are both different in functionally and in fine…

Age is a primary cause for knee and hip replacement surgeries. As we get older, our joints naturally become more susceptible to breakdowns in cartilage and a loss of bone density. Osteoarthritis, sometimes referred to as degenerative joint disease is an abnormal medical condition that causes deterioration, pain, swelling or stiffness of bones and joints. Although osteoarthritis affects all age groups, the condition is seen most often in the older population. This could be for various reasons.…

Fracture is defined as a discontinuity of the bone [1]. Oral and maxillofacial surgeon treats traumatic injuries. Most of the traumatic injuries are comprised of Mandibullar fractures. The most commonly fracture site in the body is the facial area [2, 3] and the most frequent site in the facial area is mandible [4, 5]. As facial area is without protective covering and the mandible is the most protruded bone this area. The occurrence of injuries in the facial area tends to be high in the facial…

Osteomalacia Vitamin D is a key player in calcium absorption, and deficiency can lead to decreased calcium absorption, which can, in turn, cause bone diseases such as rickets or osteomalacia. (Nair, 2010, para. 4) Osteomalacia refers to a softening of bones that are often caused by a vitamin D deficiency which make bones more susceptible to bowing and fracturing. Osteomalacia is not the same as osteoporosis, osteomalacia results from a defect in the bone-building process, while osteoporosis…

Osteoarthritis is a disease of joints that means they do not move as smoothly as they should be, due to the thinning of the cartilage [1]. This disease mostly affects people over the age of 65, and it is estimated that 2.46 million people suffer from osteoarthritis in England alone, just of the hip joint. Osteoarthritis causes a lot of pain to the patient and a loss of mobility due to the damaged joint. It has been found that joint replacement offers significant pain relief and improvement in…

fail to form enough new bone or too much old bone is being reabsorbed. There are two essential minerals for bone formation and those are calcium and phosphate. To keep the heart and brain functioning correctly, you have to have calcium and the body reabsorbs calcium that is stored in the bones to maintain blood calcium levels. If the body does not absorb enough calcium, bone production and bone tissue may suffer. If all that happens, the bones may become weaker, resulting in brittle and fragile…

turn everyday activities such as using the stairs or carrying the groceries, into a nightmare. The two essential minerals for normal bone formation are calcium and phosphate. Calcium is also important for proper functioning of the health, brain, and several other organs so to keep those organs functioning, the body will reabsorb calcium stored in the bones to maintain…

Osteoporosis is a rare disease which causes bones to become weak and brittle its very popular with people over their 50’s it causes them to become hunched up.More than 50 percent of people over 50 have it.Any bone can break but the most popular to break are the wrist,hip and the spine,if you break one of these phones you can fracture yourself really bad. Osteoporosis has been around for more than 4000 years it been found on ancient mummies it was common with all the women that lived in that era…

and even break easily. To avoid osteoporosis in the elderly, it is recommended to take calcium and vitamin D supplements, because it is much harder for the elderly to exercise, get sunlight, or even to prevent falling. Vitamin D works to increase calcium and phosphate levels, two key ingredients in bone formation, by increasing absorption from the intestines and the kidney. Furthermore, the circulating calcium and phosphate absorbed by the intestine and…

A greater risk for osteoporosis is a prominent health epidemic for postmenopausal women. During menopause, the decline of reproductive hormones such as estrogen decreases strict regulation on osteoclastic activity. Thus, an estrogen deficiency is associated with increased bone resorption caused by increased osteoclastic activity and cellular differentiation. While the gradual cessation during menopause contributes to an increased risk for osteoporosis, other influential factors include a…
