Alveolar duct

The alveolar ducts are located in the structure of the teeth and are narrow canals leading from the root of the tooth to the enamel. Each tooth has two alveolar canals - the maxillary and mandibular canals. They are connected to the dental pulp and contain sensory nerve endings responsible for sensations of pressure, temperature and pain.

The alveolar canals play an important role in the health of teeth and gums. One of their main functions is to prevent the formation of dental plaque (plaque) on the enamel, as well as pathogenic bacteria and other microorganisms. Thanks to this, the alveolar tubules
