| Abstrakt: | Aim: To determine the correlation between body mass index (BMI), bone mineral density (BMD), and residual ridge resorption (RRR) in postmenopausal females and the effect of osteoporosis on RRR. Materials and Methods: A study was conducted with 60 postmenopausal female individuals. BMI was calculated using the weight and height of the patient using a formula. BMD was assessed and graded using a T-score. RRR was determined using the Tallgren method. Results: Most individuals showed a higher BMI (63.33%), which is in the overweight or obese category. BMD was lower in approximately 68.33% of patients, and RRR was significantly higher in about 60% of total patients. Conclusion: The higher the BMI values, the lesser the BMD and the higher the RRR. Competing Interests: Human subjects: Consent was obtained or waived by all participants in this study. Animal subjects: All authors have confirmed that this study did not involve animal subjects or tissue. Conflicts of interest: In compliance with the ICMJE uniform disclosure form, all authors declare the following: Payment/services info: All authors have declared that no financial support was received from any organization for the submitted work.
