- Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease that characterized by low bone mineral density. The study was aimed to determine the relationship between bone mineral density status with the severity of periodontal disease and tooth loss. The study was conducted on patients who come to RSUP.DR. Wahidin Sudiro Husodo with the sample size is 33 people. After completing dental records, each oral cavity of the sampleswas examine of by using a panoramic dental x-ray to see the level of alveolar bone resorption. A complete blood laboratory test was performed to value calcium serum. Examination of bone mineral density conducted at the lumbal spine and the femoral head by using DXA. The results show that low levels of BMD to periodontal status showed a significant result (p = 0.005). The level of bone resorption occured greater in mandible than in maxilla. However, calcium serum levels showed no significant results in the low BMD (p> 0.005). In addition, there were no statistically significant results between low bone mineral density with tooth loss (p> 0.005). In general, low bone mineral density had a significant relationship with the severity of periodontal status, while generally low bone mineral density was not significantly associated with tooth loss.
