Day 30 - 60: Modeling/ remodeling
author: Nikos Mardas | publisher: drg. Andreas Tjandra, Sp. Perio, FISID
At 30 days of healing, a significant part of the extraction socket is filled with newly formed bone. This bone contains a large number of primary osteons and is continuous with the original bone of the socket walls. In some areas, the process of modeling and remodeling of the newly formed bone has begun. Osteoclasts are present on the surface of the original cortical bone lateral to the crestal region of the extraction socket.
