There are three types of muscle contraction: concentric, isometric, and eccentric.
Concentric: In a concentric contraction, the muscle tension rises to meet the resistance then remains stable as the muscle shortens. During eccentric contraction, the muscle lengthens as the resistance becomes greater than the force the muscle is producing.
Isometric: An isometric exercise is a form of exercise involving the static contraction of a muscle without any visible movement in the angle of the joint.
Eccentric: An eccentric (lengthening) muscle contraction occurs when a force applied to the muscle exceeds the momentary force produced by the muscle itself, resulting in the forced lengthening of the muscle-tendon system while contracting
A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that occurs in approximately 15 percent of patients with diabetes and is commonly located on the bottom of the foot.
I would explain to her that most likely the teeth will not repair themselves due to the fact that, unlike bone, enamel does not contain cells that are capable of remodeling and repair. However, some remineralization is possible.
