“…Type 2 BMC as their main finding (Kalantar Motamedi et al, 2015;Rothe et al, 2018), and another two reported that Type 4 BMC accounted for more than one third of their accessory canals (Rossi et al, 2012;Salvador et al, 2010). fifth category to Naitoh's classification, which they called the ramus canal, that is, a canal that extends from the IAC to the ramus region, which is above the mandibular foramen.…”

“…In summary, the most commonly observed BMC is Type 1 (Devito & Tamburus, ). Only two studies reported a high percentage of Type 2 BMC as their main finding (Kalantar Motamedi et al, ; Rothe et al, ), and another two reported that Type 4 BMC accounted for more than one third of their accessory canals (Rossi et al, ; Salvador et al, ).…”

The mandibular canal is a conduit that allows the inferior alveolar neurovascular bundle to transverse the mandible to supply the dentition, jawbone and soft tissue around the gingiva and the lower lip. It is not a single canal but an anatomical structure with multiple branches and variations. The branches are termed accessory, bifid or trifid canals depending on their number and configuration. A bifid mandibular canal is an anatomical variation reported more commonly than the trifid variant. Because of these variations, it is of the utmost importance to determine the exact location of the mandibular canal and to identify any branches arising from it prior to performing surgery in the mandible. This article reviews the prevalence, classification and morphometric measurements of these accessory mandibular canals, emphasizing their clinical significance.

“…Several studies have evaluated the anatomical location and morphology of the bifid MC by means of panoramic images [8][9][10]14,17,21 , but due to the limitations of two-dimensional (2D) exams, it is not always possible to diagnose such variations. However, CBCT evaluation enables the identification of variations that may not be seen in orthopantomography examinations 6,20,22 .…”

Objetivo: Este relato tem por objetivo descrever uma rara variação do canal mandibular (CM) apresentando trifurcação direita e bifurcação esquerda, por meio da Tomografia Computadorizada de Feixe Cônico (TCFC). Relato do caso: Paciente do sexo feminino, 26 anos de idade, sem comprometimento sistêmico, foi encaminhada para remoção cirúrgica dos terceiros molares inferiores devido a presença de sintomatologia dolorosa. Foi solicitada uma TCFC para avaliar a relação entre terceiros molares e o canal mandibular, para orientar o planejamento cirúrgico. O volume tomográfico foi analisado por meio do software Sidexis (Sirona Dental Systems, Bernsheim, Alemanha). Durante a análise dos cortes tomográficos, foi possível observar a presença de variações do CM bilateralmente. Observou-se bifurcação do CM direito e trifurcação do CM esquerdo. Conclusão: O presente relato destacou a importância da TCFC para o diagnóstico das alterações anatômicas, como a trifurcação do canal mandibular.

The mandibular canal bifid and trifid are variations of the mandibular canal. This variation of themandibular canal is essential to recognize in surgical procedures involving mandibles, such as extraction ofimpacted third molars, dental implant treatment, and sagittal split ramus osteotomy. The purpose of this study wasto determine the prevalence of bifid and trifid mandibular canal by panoramic radiograph at RSGM Unsyiah BandaAceh. This research method is descriptive by collecting secondary data in the form of panoramic images frompatients visiting RSGM Unsyiah Banda Aceh for April 2012-March 2017. A total of 2,478 panoramic radiographphotos collected showed the bifid mandibular canal is 1.25%. Based on sex, 21 photos (67.74%) of the bifidmandibular canal cases in women and ten photos (32.26%) in men. Based on the position of the bifid mandibularcanal, 9 images (29.03%) unilateral/ right-sided, 15 photos (48.39%) were unilateral/left side, and seven photos(22.58%) bilateral.
