Abstract

Alveolar bone loss has been reported in primary teeth of healthy young children with a variable prevalence.This study aimed to review the literature on alveolar bone loss in the primary teeth of children without systemic diseases and to discuss the controversies with regard to the prevalence of this pathology in the primary dentition.
