A medical term referring to the healing of a wound or lesion, particularly through the formation of new tissue.
From Greek 'epoulis' meaning 'on the gums' and medical suffix '-osis', originally applied to oral healing processes.
Ancient physicians discovered that wounds heal in predictable stages, and they gave each stage a Greek name—epulosis describes that beautiful moment when your body seems to 'feed' the wound back together.
