The bone tissues are metabolically active and undergo continuous remodelling throughout their life. This remodelling ability is a very important ability which allows the shaping of the bones and removal of dead bone tissues. Skeletal remodelling is achieved by two counteracting processes: osteoblast; bone formation, and osteoclast; bone resorption.
Now in children and youth, rate of osteoblast > rate of osteoclast = growth of bone
In adults and elders, rate of osteoblast < rate of osteoclast = irriversible loss of bone mass
Osteoporosis is when one is affected with severe irrriversible loss of bone mass.
With treatment, it is possble to prevent worsening of the bones, but impossible to recover back to normal bone mass.
