| Summary: | Background: Panoramic radiography is extraoral radiographic that have been used commonly in dentistry to
obtain a complete picture of the entire maxillofacial. One of the structures seen on panoramic radiographs is the alveolar ridge. Height of the mandibular alveolar ridge can be decreased after tooth loss. Purpose: To determine value of the mandibular alveolar ridge in men with a toothless jaw on panoramic radiographic picture Methods In this study measured the height of mandibular alveolar ridge in panoramic radiograph in 23 men, divided into two groups, dentate and edentulous. Measurements were taken at three points on mandibular, the masurement obeserved by 3 observers and taken the Results: The average of height mandibular alveolar ridge in the group of edentulous men lower than the dentate men. Conclusion: The average of the height mandibular alveolar ridge in the edentulous men is 27.43 mm in the molar point, 31.18 mm in point premolars, and 32.84 mm in the incisor point. |
