The alveolar process (/ælˈviːələr, ˌælviˈoʊlər, ˈælviələr/) is the portion of bone containing the tooth sockets on the jaw bones (in humans, the maxilla...

Alveolar osteitis, also known as dry socket, is inflammation of the alveolar bone (i.e., the alveolar process of the maxilla or mandible). Classically...

and length of oral pathology, the loss of periodontal fiber, the clinical attachment loss (CAL), alveolar bone loss, and help in assessing and determining...

tissues are known as the periodontium, which includes the gingiva (gums), alveolar bone, cementum, and the periodontal ligament. A periodontist is a dentist...

adults (30–90 years) are affected. The cumulative effects of alveolar bone loss, attachment loss and pocket formation is more apparent with an increase in...

with early-onset aggressive periodontitis associated with advanced alveolar bone loss and tooth mobility due to neutropenia and defective neutrophil function...

posable bone, sharing joints with the cranium's temporal bones. The mandible hosts the lower teeth (their depth delineated by the alveolar process)....

periodontal species. This condition increases alveolar bone loss, attachment loss, tooth mobility, and finally tooth loss. It can cause other diseases widely reported...

loss of attachment and bone loss is rapid. Loss of attachment refers to the destruction of periodontium whereas the bone refers to the alveolar bone supporting...

tissues of the teeth may progress to necrosis (tissue death) of the alveolar bone, which may result in a decrease of the number of teeth. The decrease...
