A total of 75 CBCT images were obtained from the Department of Oral Radiology, and BMD in HUs was calculated in a standardized implant area superimposed on the images. Bone density was also subjectively calculated by 2 independent observers. The calculation of sample size was done to obtain a power of 90% with 0.5 alpha error and 0.2 effect size, as per a previous study.[1]
