ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Alveolar cancellous bone biopsy samples were extracted during dental implant preparation for investigating microstructural changes due to menopause and relationships between these changes and bone turnover markers. STUDYDESIGN:
Subjects were 18 women receiving mandibular implants premenopausal (n = 5), early postmenopausal (≤5 years; n = 3), and late postmenopausal (>5 years; n = 10). Bone turnover markers were measured and the samples analyzed using microscopic computerized tomography and 3-dimensional bone morphometry.RESULTS:
The alveolar bone volume was significantly less in late postmenopausal women than in premenopausal ones. The trabeculae in early postmenopausal women were more separated and rod-like than in premenopausal ones (P < .05). Each alveolar bone parameter was significantly (P < .05) related to at least 1 bone turnover marker.CONCLUSIONS:
Alveolar cancellous bone structure begins changing even in early postmenopausal women, and this structure varies in close relationship to bone turnover markers.
