What is Age-Related Changes in Mandible Structure about?

The mandible changes significantly over the course of a lifetime. In childhood, the bone density of the mandible is lowest and it contains more cancellous bone. During adulthood, the bone density increases as compact bone replaces cancellous bone. In old age, the bone density reaches its maximum. As a person ages, the body of the mandible reduces in size with tooth loss, the alveolar process absorbs, and the mandibular angle becomes more obtuse.
