During the course o chronic periodontitis the loss o clinicalattachment level and the underlying bone is substantially triggered Te periodontal-localized in1047298ammation maceratesthe cancellous bone by enhanced osteoclastic activity whichmay constitute a potential route or invasion o an adjacentcarcinoma Osteoclastic activity is enhanced by proin1047298am-
