alveolar bone loss

Sažetak
Alveolar bone loss (RRR) is a continuous process following tooth extraction, more pronounced during the first few month after the tooth extraction. The RRR in the mandible is twice that of the maxilla during a 1-year period and the mandibular:maxillary resorption ratio increases further to 4:1 after 7 years. The RRR stops after ten years in the upper jaw, while it is continous in the mandible.
