AB  - The  alveolus  is  the  tooth-bearing  segment  of  the  mandible  and  maxilla.  Fracture  of  the  alveolar  process  tends  to  occur  most  often  in  the  thinner  maxilla.  The  anterior  alveolar  processes  are  at  greatest  risk  for  fracture  due  to  more  direct  exposure  to  trauma.  Both  subluxation  and  avulsion  of  teeth  may  be  associated  with  underlying  alveolar  fractures.  Various  degrees  of  tooth  mobility  and  gingival  bleeding  may  occur.
