ABSTRACT
Objectives:
radiomorphometric indices measured on simple radiographic images can be used for qualitative and quantitative assessment of bone. Panoramic radiographic imaging can therefore assist dentists in early detection of osteoporosis in patients. Considering the effect of ethnic and environmental factors on development of osteoporosis and absence of normal values of radiomorphometric indices for the Iranian population, which results in use of normal values of other ethnicities for determining the presence or absence of osteoporosis in patients, the present study was conducted to evaluate radiomorphometric indices in patients presenting to a private oral and maxillofacial radiology clinic in Rafsanjan, Iran
