Özet
Objectives: To assess the effects of a gluten-free diet on bone the normal reference range. No statistically significant difference structure in children with celiac disease using fractal analysis on was determined between right and left condyle fractal dimen- panoramic radiographs. Method and materials: A total of sionsvalues in the three groups examined. Intermsof both right 49 patients with celiac disease aged 6 to 13years, separated into and left condyle fractal dimensions values, there was a statis- two groups as previously and newly diagnosed, and a control tically significant difference between groups. The highest fractal group of 32 healthy individuals were evaluated. In previously and dimensions values were determined in the previously diagnosed newly diagnosed patients with celiac disease, body mass index group.Conclusions: Differencesinfractaldimensionsvalueswere Z-scores were calculated, calcium, alkaline phosphatase, vitamin observed among patients with celiac disease following the glu- D3, and parathormone levels were measured, and bone mineral ten-free diet. Utilizing fractal analysis on panoramic radiographs density Z-scores were obtained from dual energy x-ray absorption-can prove valuable for dental practitioners in evaluating bone min- ometry. In all patients, the fractal dimensions of the rightand lefteral density due to its cost-effectiveness, easy accessibility, and temporomandibular condyles were evaluated with the fractal reduced radiationexposureforpatients.enablingthemtoprovide analysis method on panoramic radiographs. Results: The mean comprehensive oral health care and potential early interventions values of serum biomarker levels and the body mass index and for patients with celiac disease.
