Mechanical adaptation of trabecular bone morphology in the mammalian mandible
Abstract Alveolar bone, together with the underlying trabecular bone, fulfils an important role in providing structural support against masticatory forces. Diseases such as osteoporosis or periodontitis cause alveolar bone resorption which weakens this structural support and is a major cause of toot...
