Jaw bone
I understand that the jaw bone also a great capacity to generate immunity to infections and is somewhat independent from the more general immune system, being evolutionarily dedicate in fighting oral infections from mouth bacterias including tooth decay, root infections and other oral issues. Is this correct? Or does the immune system exist only as a general system without local specializations ? --Panic (discuss • contribs) 21:03, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
