Abstract:
Aim: The aim of this study was to see the improvement of mandibular bone mass (MABM) in postmenopausal osteoporotic patients treated with bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid). Materials and Methods: A total of 150 postmenopausal osteoporotic patients were divided into two groups under the condition of treated and non-treated. All patients had been evaluated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, radiovesiography. Result: Pixel intensity value of mandibular alveolar bone was significantly different between osteoporosis and treated osteoporosis group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: There are significant improvements of MABM in postmenopausal osteoporotic patient treated with zoledronic acid.
