Abstract

Introduction: Bones are the primary structural components of the human body that

have the ability to grow and develop. Loss of bone mass increases the risk of bone

health disorders such as osteopenia and osteoporosis. One method for diagnosing

osteoporosis is through panoramic radiography using radiometric measurements such

as the Antegonial Index (AI). The measurement of the Antegonial Index can be

conducted using the SmarTimu application. Objective: This study aimed to compare

the Antegonial Index values between males and females. Methods: This research

employed a cross-sectional design with purposive sampling, using panoramic

radiographs from RSIGMP Universitas Muslim Indonesia that meet the inclusion

criteria. Results: The right-side Antegonial Index in males was found to be 2.973,

while the left-side index was 2.964. In females, the right-side Antegonial Index was

3.300, and the left-side index was 3.264. Conclusion: There is no significant difference

in the Antegonial Index values between males and females based on panoramic

radiography.
