Comparison of the mandibular bone densitometry measurement between normal, osteopenic and osteoporotic postmenopausal women.
This study was conducted to compare the mandibular bone density between postmenopausal women with normal skeletal bone mass density (BMD) and those with low skeletal BMD using digital panoramic radiographs.One hundred fifteen postmenopausal women were divided into normal and osteoporotic/osteopenic...
