摘要
Aging is associated with a loss of bone mass and an increased risk of oral and systemic bone loss. Systemic osteoporosis can result in bone fractures, especially of the spine and hip, with the characteristic spinal curvature and loss of height often seen in osteoporotic postmenopausal women. Loss of teeth, and ridge resorption can occur in the mouth.
