The normal stiffness of the edentulous alveolar process. [PDF]
Bone Rep, 2021 The normal stiffness of the jawbone is seldom considered, as opposed to the mechanical properties of its individual cortical and trabecular components. Our standpoint is essentially structural, rather than purely material-oriented, as the jawbone is considered as a natural load-bearing structure.

Augmentation and Preservation of the Alveolar Process and Alveolar Ridge of Bone [PDF]
, 2012 The alveolar process is the part of the maxilla and the mandible that house and support the alveoli of the teeth. It develops in conjunction with the development and eruption of the teeth, over the basal bone and coronal to it. The alveolar process consists of an outer layer of cortical bone, an inner cancellous bone, and a special layer alveolar bone ...

A mammalian Wnt5a-Ror2-Vangl2 axis controls the cytoskeleton and confers cellular properties required for alveologenesis. [PDF]
, 2020 Alveolar formation increases the surface area for gas-exchange and is key to the physiological function of the lung. Alveolar epithelial cells, myofibroblasts and endothelial cells undergo coordinated morphogenesis to generate epithelial folds (secondary

Investigating the suitability of high content image analysis as a tool to assess the reversibility of foamy alveolar macrophage phenotypes in vitro. [PDF]
, 2020 Many potential inhaled medicines fail during development due to the induction of a highly vacuolated or “foamy” alveolar macrophage phenotype response in pre-clinical studies.

Maxillary expansion in an animal model with light, continuous force [PDF]
, 2018 Objectives: Maxillary constriction is routinely addressed with rapid maxillary expansion (RME). However, the heavy forces delivered by most RME appliances to expand the palate may lead to deleterious effects on the teeth and supporting tissues.

Thickness of the buccal bone wall and root angulation in the maxilla and mandible: an approach to cone beam computed tomography [PDF]
, 2018 Background: The objective of this paper is to anatomically describe the bone morphology in the maxillary and mandibular tooth areas, which might help in planning post-extraction implants.
