CROSS-SPECIES ANATOMY - ANNOTATIONS

The Basic subset of the UBERON integrated, cross-species anatomy ontology is downloaded weekly from http://berkeleybop.org/ontologies/uberon/basic.obo. For more information about this ontology see the "About" page on the UBERON website at http://uberon.github.io/about.html.

Definition:The thickened ridge of bone that contains the tooth sockets on the maxilla.
Comment:[taxon-note] "In humans, the tooth-bearing bones are the maxilla and the mandible. The mineral content of alveolar bone is mostly hydroxyapatite, which is also found in enamel as the main inorganic substance" xsd:string {source="WP"}
Synonyms:exact_synonym: alveolar margin of maxilla;   alveolar part of maxilla;   alveolar ridge of maxilla;   lower alveolar ridge;   maxilla alveolar process;   pars dentalis of maxilla;   posterior alveolar ridge;   processus alveolaris (maxilla);   processus alveolaris maxillae
