alveolar bone

It can also be referred to as alveolar bone proper.

Like any other bone in the human body, alveolar bone is modified throughout life.

They also attach from the cementum and insert to the nearby alveolar bone.

Traumatic complete displacement of a tooth from its socket in alveolar bone.

Previously there was no defined tool to measure the quantity of facial alveolar bone.

Osteoblasts give rise to the alveolar bone around the roots of teeth.

The disease consists of a chronic inflammation associated with loss of alveolar bone.

Alveolar bone surrounds the roots of teeth to provide support and creates what is commonly called a "socket".

There are four chief types of bone defects that present in the alveolar bone:

Such a lesion may contribute to destruction of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone.

The gums are the mucosal tissue that lies over the alveolar bone.

Periodontal ligaments connect the alveolar bone to the cementum.

The alveolar bone is the bone of the jaw which forms the alveolus around teeth.

In the case of alveolar bone, these osteoblast cells form from the dental follicle.

They are involved in adult regeneration of the periodontal ligament, alveolar bone, and cementum.

This may further lead to furcal involvement through loss of clinical attachment and alveolar bone.

In dentistry, platform switching is a method used to preserve alveolar bone levels around dental implants.

Through experiments on animals and clinical trials on humans, he developed substitutes for the lost alveolar bone.

It may exist with or without concomitant decrease in crown-to-root ratio (recession of alveolar bone).

Loss of teeth alters the form of the alveolar bone in 91% of cases.

It is firm, resilient, and tightly bound to the underlying periosteum of alveolar bone.

Fingers placed in the labial vestibule against the alveolar bone can detect fremitus.

It consists of the cementum, periodontal ligaments, alveolar bone, and gingiva.

Effect of dietary vitamin E supplement and rotational stress on alveolar bone loss in rice rats (subscription required).

It is used extensively in bone grafting of alveolar bone in oral and periodontal surgery.
