This study was conducted to measure salivary osteonectin in relation to periodontal pocket depth among osteoporotic women and compared to control group. Materials and Methods: 60 females aged 60-65 years attending Al-Yarmook Teaching Hospital were included in the present study , The 30 patients diagnosed with osteoporosis by measuring bone density at the spine and femur with a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at T-score of >2.5, and 30 women without osteoporosis with T-score of Keywords Osteoporosis; pocket depth; salivary osteonectin --- ترقق العظام --- عمق الجيب --- أوستيونيكتين اللعابية. | ||
