THE HEAD CONDYLE RESORPTION CONNECTED BY FHS LEVEL IN PATIENT OSTEOPOROSIS WITH PANORAMIC RADIOGRAPHY

Backgrounds: Osteopososis is a systemic disease in which a decline in bone quality and increased levels FSH as a detector of osteoporosis. Examination for these abnormalities does with BMD examination. Panoramic radiography is one tool to detect this disease. Head of condyle is a sign that examined the panoramic radiography.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the resorption of the head condyle associated with FHS with suspected osteoporosis.
Materials and methods: This study uses the analytic description. Samples derived from 10 panoramic radiographs. Analysis uses multiple regressions analysis, calculated by ANOVA test.
Result: The results of this study found a positive correlation between the resorption of the head with the condyle with FHS levels. Beside that there is a correlation between BMD and resorption examination condyle head.
Conclusion: In Patients suspected of osteoporosis than proved by BMD and levels FSH, panoramic radiographs especially when viewed from the head of the condyle resorption can be quite helpful.
