OBJECTIVE: The present study was aimed at comparing indices obtained from dental panoramic radiographs with bone densitometry results in the identification of individuals affected by osteoporosis/osteopenia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Panoramic mandibular, mental, antegonial, gonial and mandibular cortical indices calculated with basis on dental panoramic radiographs of postmenopausal women were compared with bone densitometry results, twice by one observer and once by a second observer. RESULTS: Significant differences were not found between the two measurements performed by the same observer, except for the antegonial index on the left side. Interobserver agreement for both sides was good. The variance analysis demonstrated statistically sign...
