Assessment of Mandibular Alveolar Bone Density in Osteoporotic Adults in Syria
2014
Open Journal of Dentistry and Oral Medicine
Objectives: Many studies indicated that reduction of skeletal bone mineral density (BMD) may lead to loss of the mandibular alveolar bone mass (MABM). Since osteoporosis is characterized with low bone mineral density, it may affect both maxilla and mandible. This study aims to evaluate the correlation between mandibular alveolar bone density (MABD) and bone mineral density (BMD), and to assess the use of intra-oral periapical radiographs in osteoporosis detection. Methods: Participants were
