--- This research was conducted in 30 postmenopausal women between 50 and 60 years old, patients attending the Dental Clinic of the Federico Villarreal National University for dental treatment. This study is cross-sectional, retrospective, analytical and comparative. The objective of this research was to radiographically determine the effect of the posmenopause in the alveolar bony ridges in women between 50 and 60 years old having as reference the distance between the boundary of the cement enamel and the alveolar ridge. For that purpose, all of the patients were grouped into two groups, the first group with less than 7 years of posmenopause and the second group of more than 7 years of posmenopause. For this determination, we used x-ray film of the same brand (Kodak) and sensitivity, to avoid bias caused by the particular radiographic sensitivity. Periapical radiographs were taken of the inferior central teeth with the point of entry guided to the interdental alveolar ridge using the parallel technique with the RINN system to avoid any distortion. The results corroborate the existence of the association between the number of years of postmenopausal osteoporosis with the resorption of the alveolar ridge, such association was demonstrated by the increasing distance between the enamel cement limited to the alveolar ridge, but statistically meaningless. Furthermore, no direct relationship was found between years of posmenopause with the amount of resorption of the alveolar ridges.
