“…The results of our study suggests that, mean Gonial angles becomes more obtuse in all three groups and were comparable with Kasat V et al, [2] and Shendakar AT et al, [6] who opine that as age advances, there is change in angle of the mandible from more obtuse to less obtuse and again to more obtuse [2].…”

“…Mean value of the distance between Mental foramen and tangent drawn to base of mandible had no statistically differences between the analysed age groups, was consistent with Amorin M et al, [12], Kasat V et al, [2] and Shendarkar et al, [6]. The mean values were more for males which can be compared to Enlow DH et al, [11] and Amorin M et al, [12].…”

“…The long-standing mandibular edentulous ridge undergoes accelerated bone loss especially at the labial side of canine areas which significantly reduce the ridge width 44) . There is a general consensus that the minimum thickness of bone should be 6 mm to permit positioning of implants with a diameter of 3.75 mm and to maintain at least 1 mm of bone at buccal and lingual walls for a predictable outcome 45) .…”

This study evaluated the effect of implant diameter on strain around implants retaining mandibular overdentures with Locator attachments. Three mandibular acrylic resin models were constructed with 2 implants inserted in canine areas and classified according to implant diameter into 3 groups: large (4.2 mm), medium (3.7 mm), and small (3.3 mm) diameter implants. Duplicate dentures were connected to the implants with Locator attachments. Four strain gauges were bonded to the acrylic resin at mesial, distal, buccal and lingual surfaces of each implant and strain was measured at loading and non-loading sides during 1st premolar and 1st molar loading. Small and large diameter implants recorded the highest and the lowest strain, respectively. Buccal and lingual sites recorded the highest strain, and mesial site recorded the lowest. First premolar loading recorded significant higher strain than first molar loading. The largest possible implant diameter is recommended to minimize strains around implants retaining mandibular overdentures with Locator attachments.

“…During an individual's life, the morphological changes undergone by the mandible are thought to be influenced by dental status and the age of the patient (1). The various remodeling fields in the mandible which undergo changes include the gonial region, antegonial region, condyle and ramus.…”

Objectives: This study analyzed changes in the antegonial region in relation to age, gender, and dental status. Study design: A total of one thousand patients (five hundred males and five hundred females), who were prescribed panoramic radiograph for various purposes were included in the study. The patients were categorized according to age, gender and dentition status. Panoramic radiographs were traced and antegonial angles and depths were measured. Results: A trend of decrease in the antegonial angle and increase in antegonial depth with age was observed in both males and females. Furthermore there were differences between right and left side antegonial angle and depth, with left side angle more than right and right side depth more than left. There was a significant decrease in the values of antegonial angle and significant increase in the values of antegonial depth as the dentition status changed from completely dentulous to partially dentulous and from partially dentulous to completely edentulous state. Conclusions: The antegonial angle decreases with the advancing age and thereby increases the antegonial depth. Similar trends are seen when teeth are lost. Furthermore there is an inherent asymmetry in the antegonial region in right and left side.
