Evaluating trabecular microstructure of mandible and axis in osteoporosis, diabetes and chronic kidney disease using cone beam computed tomography

ConclusionSystemic diseases affect bone tissue at different levels, and to evaluate these effects, cortical and trabecular bone parts must be investigated separately, and findings must be combined with patients' clinical symptoms. CBCT is suitable for microstructural evaluation of trabecular bone and the mandible carries valuable data for this purpose.
