*A more virulent infection into the alveolus produces alveolar periostitis.
*Infection spreads from [[Pulp - Anatomy & Physiology|pulp]] or from gingivitis to produce the periostitis.
*This may then break out of the alveolus into the bone causing [[Bones Inflammatory - Pathology#Osteomyelitis|osteomyelitis]].
**Seen in infection of carnassial teeth in dogs as chronic sinus discharging below eye. So called 'malar' abscess.
*Only treated by removal of [[Oral Cavity - Teeth & Gingiva - Anatomy & Physiology|tooth]].
*Abscess may break through into maxillary sinus. If drained will get recovery.
**Other maxillary cheek [[Oral Cavity - Teeth & Gingiva - Anatomy & Physiology|teeth]] can be involved in pyaemic infection with sinus formation.
*Hard to evaluate on [[Skull and Facial Muscles - Anatomy & Physiology#Mandible (mandibula)|mandible]], may produce fistula that also needs [[Oral Cavity - Teeth & Gingiva - Anatomy & Physiology|tooth]] removal.
