  Introduction: Bone healing, a fundamental process in oral surgery, varies from one anatomical site to another. The alveolar bone and the mandibular symphysis, although both involved in masticatory function, differ in embryological origin, vascularization and structure. This review aims to compare bone healing processes in these two sites, based on histological studies in animals, in order to identify similarities and differences, as well as factors influencing healing. Materials and methods: A literature search was conducted in the PubMed, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar databases, using the keywords ?bone healing?, ?dental socket?, ?mandibular symphysis?, ?histology? and ?animal?. Selected studies had to include histological analysis of alveolar and symphyseal bone healing in animals, allowing direct comparison of the two sites. .. Read More»
