Hair-on-end appearance is caused by extramedullary hematopoiesis leading to expansion of diploe and perpendicular trabecular pattern. This occurs in severe chronic hemolytic anemias: Thalassemia, sickle cell anemia, and Cooleys anemia (which is actually thalassemia major). Pagets disease shows a cotton-wool appearance with mixed lytic and sclerotic lesions, not the characteristic hair-on-end pattern.

1. Polypropylene: This is a synthetic, non-absorbable suture material known for its strength and resistance to infection. It is commonly used in oral surgery and dental procedures due to its non-reactive nature with tissues.
2. Polyglycollic acid: Polyglycollic acid is an absorbable suture material that is broken down by hydrolysis.
3. Vicryl: Vicryl is a synthetic, absorbable suture material that is commonly used in dentistry due to its good handling properties and tissue reactivity profile.
4. Collagen: Collagen is a natural, absorbable suture material derived from animal sources. It is biocompatible but not as strong as non-absorbable materials and is absorbed by the body over time.
