Alveolar process
The alveolar process (alveolar bone) is the thickened ridge of bone that contains the tooth sockets (dental alveoli) on bones that hold teeth. In humans, the tooth-bearing bones are the maxillae and the mandible.Ten Cate's Oral Histology, Nanci, Elsevier, 2013, page 219.

Anterior superior alveolar nerve
The anterior superior alveolar branch (anterior superior dental branch), of considerable size, is given off from the maxillary nerve (the second branch of the trigeminal nerve or cranial nerve V, abbreviated V2) just before its exit from the infraorbital foramen; it descends in a canal in the anterior wall of the maxillary sinus, and divides into branches which supply the incisor and canine teeth.
