| ABSTRACTBackground Digital radiography uses conventional radiographic techniques, but the film is replaced with sensor thattransmits the image to a computer. These systems allow some manipulation of image to be carried out, which canenhance the image quality. Although the equipment is expensive, this technique has grown in popularity overrecent years.Materials and method: The study was completed by the participation of 40 individuals (postmenopausal group: 20subjects; premenopausal group: 20 subjects). The age of the subjects (premenopausal group) was (35-40) yrs.(Postmenopausal group) was (45-60) yrs. divided into three groups:-First age group: from (45-49), second age group:from (50-54), third age group: from (55-60). They were collected from popular clinic in Babylon and referred todiagnosis department of College of Dentistry/ University of Babylon, sample collection was from (2009-2010) yrs.Results: There was highly significant difference in interproximal alveolar bone level measurements forpostmenopausal women at different age groups including in this study, and no significant difference in interproximalalveolar bone level measurements for postmenopausal women at both jaws (upper and lower) was revealed. Alsono significant difference in interproximal alveolar bone level measurements for postmenopausal women at bothsides (right and left), but there was a significant effect for duration of menopause in interproximal alveolar bonelevel according to the confidence level and highly significant difference in interproximal alveolar bone levelbetween premenopausal and postmenopausal c groups in all age groups.Conclusions: There is a highly significant difference in inter-proximal alveolar bone level between premenopausaland postmenopausal groups in age and duration parameters including in this study.Key words: Inter-proximal bone level, menopause, bitewing x-ray.
