Abstract:Objective: Canalis sinuosus (CS) is a bony canal separated from the infraorbital nerve containing the anterior superior alveolar vessel-nerve bundle. This study aimed to assess the anatomical variations of the canalis sinuosus from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images.
Methods: CBCT images of 568 patients (328 females and 240 males; aged between 18 and 81 years old) were evaluated retrospectively. Axial, sagittal, coronal, and cross-sectional images with 0.5 mm slice thicknesses were used to evaluate t… Show more
