“…4 No significant differences were found in the values of right and left side of parameters which is uniform with previous studies. [5][6][7][8][9][10] The mean distance between the mandibular notch and mandibular foramen was 16.29 ± 2.31 mm (right side) and 16.47 ± 2.34 mm (left side) which is consistent with the findings of an East European study on 125 mandibles with the values as 17.41 ± 3.22 mm (right) and 18.01 ± 3.44 mm. 5 However, the findings of some previous studies (B.

Mandible is the strongest bone in the face region required for the process of mastication. The inferior alveolar nerve travels inside the bone in the mandibular canal to supply the lower teeth. The measurement of various parameters of mandible allows the proper localisation of nerve for anaesthetic block. Also, the ratios between factors assists during surgeries. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 97 dry adult human mandibles. Height of symphysis menti, ramus breadth and height, and distance of mandibular foramen from mandibular notch and base of mandible of both sides are measured. Ratios between ramus height and breadth and distances of mandibular foramen from above mentioned landmarks were computed. The mean height of symphysis menti was found to be 25.52 ± 4.32 mm. The mean values of height of ramus on right side was 46.18 ± 4.43 mm and on left was 46.57 ± 4.24 mm. The mean breadth of ramus was 32.29 ± 3.57 mm (right side) and 32.59 ± 3.75 mm (left side). It was found that mandibular foramen was closer to the mandibular notch than to the base of mandible on both sides. The ratios between the right and left side showed no significant differences.Inferior alveolar nerve block is required in various dental procedures for which mandibular foramen localisation is must. Dimensions of mandible help in surgical restructuring. Similarly, it aids in understanding the evolution of the bone.

Abstract:Background: Anatomical structures of head are essential to carry out almost all of dental procedures.In this regard to study the variation of mental and mandibular foramens are prerequisite for the intervention of clinical dentistry. The study was undertaken to determine the anatomical position of the mental foramen (mF) and mandibular foramen (MF) and their relationship. Methods and Methods: Eighty-seven selected Malay patients were examined at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Dental Clinics in which 34 were male and 53 were female. The size and position of the mF in relation to tooth position were recorded. The size and position of the MF were recorded based on the horizontal and vertical dimensions consisting of reference point's namely anterior and posterior border of ascending border of ramus as well as mandibular notch and lower border of mandibular ramus, respectively. Results: The mF was found to be most in line with second premolar (49%) on both sides in both sexes. The size of mF was larger on the right side and in male (p<0.05). The size of MF on the right and left side for both male and female did not differ significantly (p>0.05). The mean distance between the MF to occlusal plane was 10mm (SD ±1.56) for both sides. There was no significant difference between mF and MF position (p>0.05). Conclusion: In the Malay population, anatomical relationship and variation between mental and mandibular foramen were not found to be significant. The information would be useful in dental intervention of the clinicians.

“…In a study of dry dentate human mandibles from the population of Bangladesh, Hoque et al (2013) [1,18] presented the following locations for the MnF: between PM1 and PM2 (42.45%), at PM2 level (35.9%), and behind PM2 (21.65%), with bilateral symmetry. These results are relatively close to those presented in this study.…”

Background: The mental foramen (MnF) is the place where the mental nerve and mental artery exit the body of the mandible, being an important landmark for dentoalveolar surgery. Materials and Methods: For the assessment of MnF topography, we performed a direct morphometric study and two morphometric imaging studies through cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans and orthopantomography (OPG). The following locations of the MnF were investigated: anterior to the first premolar, at the first premolar level, between the two premolars, at the second premolar level, between the second premolar and the 6-year molar, and at the level of the mesial root of the 6-year molar. The data obtained were statistically analyzed by chi-squared test. Results: Through direct morphometry on dentate dry human mandibles, no statistically significant differences were found for the number of MnF located between the two premolars, at the level of the second premolar and between the second premolar and the 6-year molar, depending on age and analyzed side. The number of MnF located between the second premolar and the first molar varies statistically significantly in relation to the subject's gender but does not vary statistically significantly depending on age and side. By means of imaging morphometry through OPG, we found that the number of MnF located at the first premolar level, between the two premolars, at the second premolar level and between the second premolar and the 6-year molar varies statistically significantly in relation to the age of the patients. Using imaging morphometry trough CBCT scans, we found that the number of MnF located between the two premolars, at the second premolar level and between the second premolar and the 6-year molar varies statistically significantly according to the age of the patients. Comparing the results obtained from the three studies, we found that only according to age the number of MnF located between premolars and at the level of the second premolar varies statistically significantly. Conclusions: Wide and accurate knowledge of both the MnF topography and the key anatomical landmarks used in locating it proves to be essential and clinically relevant in dentoalveolar and endodontic surgery, and for improving anesthesia techniques.
