The patients were divided into 2 groups based on the use of antidepressants: Group 1 included 68 patients as the control group, and Group 2 consisted of 68 patients that used antidepressants. Radiomorphometric measurements were performed on DVT data: DVT-Mandibular Index (DVT-MI), DVT-Cortical Index (DVT-CI), Hounsfıeld Unit (HU) CORTICAL, and HU SPONGIOSIS values were calculated.Results: The group of patients that used antidepressants exhibited a significant increase in DVT CI and a significant decrease in HU CORTICAL, HU SPONGIOSIS and DVT MI values. These findings were suggestive of osteoporosis.Conclusion: Long-term use of antidepressants should be taken into consideration as a risk factor for osteoporosis in men.Keywords: antidepressant, bone density, dental tomographyhttps://www.dovepress.com/evaluation-of-the-effect-of-long-term-use-of-antidepressants-in-the-ss-peer-reviewed-article-DDDTAntidepressantbone densitydental tomography.
