The use of mandibular anatomic indicators on panoramic radiographs, i.e. the number of lost teeth, mandibular cortical width at the mental region (MCW), panoramic mandibular index (PMI), alveolar crest resorption degree (M/M ratio) and morphologic classification of the mandibular inferior cortex (MIC grade) can be useful in the evaluation of bone resorption in different age groups of women to determine the presence of osteoporosis. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity of mandibular radiomorphometric measurements and to determine the frequency of tooth loss in postmenopausal women.
