Anywhere there CAN be bone. Eventually. The first place seems to be the clavecal . At least 7 to 12 months... However, there is ossification in the ciliary muscles just about first. Life before the eyes nearly get focused.... As a rule, almost nobody goes there. And only sort of long bones or bones that can be counted without a microscope seem to be considred. We are a people of vision, or at least sight. In short, as a people, we post-europeans, asians, and just about everybody but the Arunta, operate on the theory, that if you cant see it easy, it is probabaly not there. For the benifit of the culture, anywhere there is bone, muscle or mamalian tissue with any kind of stress and a supply of calcium to be deposited. That's a quick and dirty answer.

Ossification occurs wherever bone can form.

The first place seems to be the clavicle, at an age of 7 to 12 months. There is ossification in the ciliary muscles about the same time. Often only long bones or bones of a visible size seem to be considered. But ossification can occur anywhere there is bone, muscle or mammalian tissue with any kind of stress and a supply of calcium.

Ossification is the action of producing bone. Bone is constantly removed and laid down by two types of cells; osteoclasts remove bone and osteoblasts lay down new bone. The osteoclasts use a peroxide method to dissolve bone and the osteoblasts lay down a mineral matrix to create new bone. As we grow and exercise the two work together to reshape bone. This continues for our whole lives.

Which type of growth happens after growth plate close?

A thickening of bone occurs called appositional growth after the growth plate closes in late teens.

The bone inside is removed by osteoclasts (bone breakers) while bone on the outside is laid down by osteoblasts (bone builders).
