Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	panoramic mandibular index	ratio between the thickness of the mandible at the mental foramen area and the distance measured from the inferior border of the mental foramen to the inferior border of the mandible. The value of 0.3 will be considered as normal value while the lower value indicate abnormal inferior border thickness	2018-2020
