Abstract

Background: The #alveolar process which is bearing of the teeth, #tooth extraction is the common cause of #alveolar ridge resorption, #occlusal radiographical technique of the mandibular arch has the ability to determine the size of the outer and inner cortical bone of the mandible.

Aim of the Study: The aim of this study is to assist the bucco-lingual width of mandibular bone at molar area in relation to dental status in occlusal film.

Material and Method: 30 patients (15 dentulous and 15 #edentulous) 18-25 years old, they were collected from popular clinic in Baghdad and referred to diagnosis department of Collage of Dentistry/ University of Baghdad. An occlusal film is placed into patient mouth, so that it is centered over molar area on the side to be #radiographed. After exposure and film processing, a Varnier caliper is used to measure the width of bone.
