Description Background Digital radiography uses conventional radiographic techniques, but the film is replaced with sensor that
transmits the image to a computer. These systems allow some manipulation of image to be carried out, which can
enhance the image quality. Although the equipment is expensive, this technique has grown in popularity over
recent years.
Materials and method: The study was completed by the participation of 40 individuals (postmenopausal group: 20
subjects; premenopausal group: 20 subjects). The age of the subjects (premenopausal group) was (35-40) yrs.
(Postmenopausal group) was (45-60) yrs. divided into three groups:-First age group: from (45-49), second age group:
from (50-54), third age group: from (55-60). They were collected from popular clinic in Babylon and referred to
diagnosis department of College of Dentistry/ University of Babylon, sample collection was from (2009-2010) yrs.
Results: There was highly significant difference in interproximal alveolar bone level measurements for
postmenopausal women at different age groups including in this study, and no significant difference in interproximal
alveolar bone level measurements for postmenopausal women at both jaws (upper and lower) was revealed. Also
no significant difference in interproximal alveolar bone level measurements for postmenopausal women at both
sides (right and left), but there was a significant effect for duration of menopause in interproximal alveolar bone
level according to the confidence level and highly significant difference in interproximal alveolar bone level
between premenopausal and postmenopausal c groups in all age groups.
Conclusions: There is a highly significant difference in inter-proximal alveolar bone level between premenopausal
and postmenopausal groups in age and duration parameters including in this study.
