Effect of age and gender on the condition of bone tissue of stomatognathic system.
The 240 patients, with the mean age 50.3 year for males and 54.4 years for females treated in the Department of Dental and Maxillofacial Surgery Medical University and Institute of Rural Medicine in Lublin had radiovisiographically tested premolar teeth area on the left hand body side. Digital radiovisiographical picture was developed using computer software Radiograph Workshop, and obtained factors of bone mineral density and mandible bone structure were reviewed with regard to gender and age of the treated. It was concluded that relative density, mineral density and bone mineral contents is significantly greater with male than female patients, and is deteriorating significantly with age. Age and gender of the treated in a lesser degree influences on radiological structure factors resulting from radiovisiographical picture analysis using Radiograph Workshop.
