#Inflammatory removal of bone. As cortex of bone is pushed out by central inflammation produces thinning of bone cortex with proliferation of new periosteal bone. The centre of the [[Skull and Facial Muscles - Anatomy & Physiology#Mandible (mandibula)|mandible]] is eroded forming a honeycomb-like bone. Eventually will erode through bone producing [[Granuloma|granulomatous]] lesion on bottom of [[Skull and Facial Muscles - Anatomy & Physiology#Mandible (mandibula)|mandible]] and eventually eroding through skin.

#Granuloma with micro abscess's in centre with greenish / yellow granules in middle of pus. These granules known as "sulphur bodies". Sulphur body is a colony of tangled mass of Actinomyces filaments. This is surrounded by [[Neutrophils|neutrophils]] and [[Macrophages|macrophages]] forming a pyogenic granuloma.

#Masses of fibrous tissue surround the granuloma and fill the spaces where bone has been destroyed
