Abstract

Objectives

To assess the panoramic radiomorphometric indices and fractal dimension in women with celiac disease.

Methods

The sample consisted of 20 women with celiac disease and 20 healthy women (control group). The mandibular cortical index classification, panoramic mandibular index, mental index, and fractal dimension were evaluated on panoramic radiographs. One-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey test was used for comparison of the linear measurements and fractal dimension between the celiac and control groups, adopting a significance level of 5%

Results

There was no significant difference in panoramic radiomorphometric indices or fractal dimension between the celiac and control groups.

Conclusions

Panoramic radiomorphometric indices and fractal dimension revealed no significant bone changes in women with celiac disease.
