- Alveolar bone
The alveolar bone is the area in the upper and lower jaw where the tooth sockets (alveoli) are located. The teeth are rooted in the alveoli.
In the case of tooth loss, the alveolar bone is reduced to form a narrow ridge. Without prosthetic treatment, this results in a loss of height of the lower face.
