Abstract:
The removal of a tooth is a common clinical procedure documented in an individual's dental record. A photographic and radiographic series of healing alveolar ridges/sockets are presented. The history of a documented extraction and a concordant finding of healing alveolar bone could assist in strengthening an association between a set of unidentified remains and an individual.
