“…In a study, it was showed a widening of the mandibular angle in edentulous older women suggesting possible systemic effects, such as metabolic bone loss, on the size of the mandibular angle (14). But several other studies showed discrepant results (12,13,15). It was mentioned that males had significantly smaller antegonial angle values than females, irrespective of the dental status which might be due to gender hormonal differences affecting bone metabolism (4).…”

Objectives: Osteoporosis induces the reduction of bone mass and screening for low bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has been the current gold standard test to determine osteoporosis. Panoramic radiography is widely used in dentistry for routine examination of jaws. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between the mandibular angle (MA) values and the vertebral bone mineral density (v-BMD) in 20 osteoporotic men. Study design: In panoramic radiograms of osteoporotic men, the means were calculated for the mandibular angle values measured in the right and left mandible. v-BMD values were also calculated by manual analysis of DXA scans. The correlation between these variables was assessed. Results: A negatively significant correlation was found between the MA and v-BMD. Conclusions: The size of the mandibular angle decreases when osteoporosis increases. It is suggested that the mandibular angle may be useful in clinical dental practice to identify osteoporotic men with previously undetected low bone mineral density.

“…In the literature, most authors who have studied mandibular remodeling have used panoramic radiographs for morphometric evaluations (3)(4)(5)9,11,(22)(23)(24)(25). In the present study, it was used to obtain these measurements, too.…”

“…However, as compared with LCR, PR is not yet reliable enough to provide sufficiently accurate additional information (4). In addition, no reports have specified a detailed method for drawing the inferior border of the mandible (9,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20). Thus, the important points for tracing on film were reviewed in this report.…”

“…Many studies have evaluated the GA on PR, but no previous report described how to produce accurate, detailed images of the GA (9,11,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20). It is essential to develop a detailed method for drawing the inferior border of the mandible-in which only one line is made on the inferior border of the mandible-so as to not change the condition of the GA. Additionally, if the GA on PR is anatomically similar to the GA on LCR or has a characteristic structure, PR may prove to be more useful and could become a high-value-added dental examination.…”

We measured the gonial angle (GA)on panoramic radiography (PR) and analyzed the correlation between the GA on PR and lateral cephalometric radiography (LCR). In total, 49 PR films and LCR films from dentate young adults were evaluated. Orthodontists plotted four points (articulare, menton, posterior gonion, and lower gonion) on the PR and carefully traced them. Using a protractor, two radiologists measured the GA on LCR images. A simultaneous experimental study of two dry skulls was performed to compare the GA on LCR and PR. The GA was slightly smaller on the PR of the dry mandible than on the LCR and tended to decrease continuously with magnitude toward the Frankfort horizontal plane. The mean GA was 115.1 ± 5.2° on PR and 122.2 ± 6.4° on the LCR. The values were highly correlated (Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, 0.801). The GA on PR was nonsignificantly smaller than that measured on LCR. The difference may be due to head position, the inclination angle of the mandibular body, and/or the direction of the incident X-ray beam. (J Oral Sci 57, 373-378, 2015)
