The state of mineral density of osteal tissues at disfunction of temporomandibular joint

Quantitative estimation of skeleton osteal tissue mineral density was made by bienergetic X-ray absorpciometry in patients with temoro-mandibular joint disfunction syndrome. Female patients with neuroendocrinic disbalance were established to have osteal tissue density reduction (osteopenia) according to Z-criterion in all regions under study but female patients without neuroendocrinic disbalance had a normal level of osteal tissue mineral density.
