ABSTRACT
Objective:
Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic disease of the bone decreasing bone mineral density [BMD] particularly in postmenopausal women. On the other hand, panoramic radiography has several applications in dentistry. It appears that by calculating some indices on panoramic radiographs, we may be able to predict the risk of osteoporosis in high-risk individuals. The present study was conducted to determine the correlation of skeletal pattern of bone and the morphology of the mandible in osteoporotic patients presenting to the Osteoporosis Clinic of Khatamolanbia Hospital and Imam Khomeini Dental Clinic in Yazd
