Bone is both an active, or organic tissue, and inorganic in composition. There are basically 3 types of cells found in bone- osteoblasts, osteocytes and osteophytes. They are involved in the production, maintenance, and tear down of bony tissue. The minerals that make up a bone are never static, always being changed to suit the forces applied to a bone (such as strength training). Typical healing time for a bone, in a healthy person, is 6-8 weeks. It will be longer in someone with osteoporosis.
