“…For the M/M ratio, the total alveolar ridge height was measured and then divided by the height from the center of the mental foramen to the inferior border of the mandible (Hirai et al, 1993;Klemetti and Vainio, 1993) (Fig. 3).…”

“…Studies by Ortman et al 79 found a statistically significantly higher percentage of women with severe alveolar ridge resorption than men. Recently, Hirai et al 80 found that the presence of skeletal osteoporosis strongly affects the reduction of the residual ridge in edentulous patients.…”

“…It has been reported that in ovariectomized rats bone loss may occur in the mandibular body and the mandibular condyle (12,43,44,45). A positive correlation has been found between osteoporosis and some jaw conditions, such as low mineral density of the mandible (31,35), severe residual ridge resorption (21,48), and excessive tooth loss (5,35,47). Some clinical trials have suggested a strong link between tooth loss and estrogen deficiency based on observations that postmenopausal women on estrogen supplement therapy suffered from less severe tooth loss as compared to those who did not receive estrogen (18,30,37).…”
