Abstract : [Introduction] The alveolar bone is a highly active tissue with a capacity for continuous remodeling to adapt to mechanical demands from occlusal and external physical force. Like the general skeletal bone, alveolar bone remodeling is mediated by two cell types, namely, the osteoblast and osteoclast. This process is also thought that a number of molecules and factors produced by the cells regulating the status of the bone represents the net results of balance between the formation and resorption of the alveolar bone. The processes of bone production and degradation are regulated and occur simultaneously with the activity of osteoblast and osteoclast. Although a number of bone matrix macromolecules has already been isolated and characterized, the chemical composition of the alveolar bone is yet unclear. In order to understand the mechanism of the remodeling process of the periodontium, we need to collect information about the macromolecular composition of alveolar bone and the effects on alveolar bone of various factors at the molecular level. Recent attention in bone research has shifted to the role played by noncollagenous proteins and physiologically active molecules in bone formation and resorption process.
