Objective: The Mandibular Incisive Canal (MIC) carries mandibular neurovascular bundle and it is necessary to determine the presence of MIC & its relation to adjacent anatomical landmarks to avoid any potential damage to neurovascular bundle during various surgical procedures. So, this study was planned to determine the prevalence, canal diameter and its relation with adjacent anatomic structures using CBCT and to find their associations with age, gender and laterality. Methods: CBCT scans of 61 patients (33 M, 28 F) were evaluated in sagittal sections. Results: The overall prevalence of MIC on the right side was found to be 65.6% while it was 73.8% on the left side. The MIC was more prevalent in females as compared to males between the 30-50 years of age. The mean diameter on the right and left side was found to be 0.85 Â± 0.25 mm & 0.93 Â± 0.27 mm respectively. The mean distance of MIC from buccal cortex was (3.5 Â± 1.3 & 3.6 Â± 1.8 mm), lingual cortex (4.8 Â± 1.6 & 4.8Â± 2.0 mm) & inferior border of the mandible (10.1 Â± 3.7 &10.4 Â± 3.3 mm) on right and left side respectively. Conclusions: The preoperative assessment of CBCT is advocated especially in middle age, females and left side for MIC evaluation &the findings of this study will help in identifying safe area during surgical procedures in inter-foraminal region. Periapical surgery, implants, genioplasty etc. can be planned in a better manner by avoiding potential danger areas.

“…This linguistic transformation results in the translation "mandibulaie" from Latin to English. 1 The fusion of the left and right mandibular prominences, together with the mandibular symphysis that serves as their connecting structure, results in the formation of the mandible in the growing fetus 2 . he midline articulation, similar to other symphyses in the human body, is connected by fibrocartilage.…”

Aim: The mandible fracture ranks as the second most often occurring facial fracture. The advent of high-speed automobiles has led to a significant increase in the frequency of accidents in recent times. Mandibular fractures are observed as a notable occurrence of maxillofacial trauma in the region of Multan. Purpose: To determine the Causes, types and management of fracture of dentate region of mandible fracture. Method: The present research is an observational and descriptive investigation including a sample of 52 patients diagnosed with mandible fractures. The study was done at the Nishter Institute of Dentistry in Multan, Pakistan, spanning from September 2021 to February 2023. Following the endorsement of the research by the Ethical Review Board of the hospital, patients were recruited using a non-probability sequential sampling method. This research included patients who had a history of trauma and were admitted to Nishter Institute of Dentistry in Multan, Pakistan, as well as those from the surrounding districts of Multan. The assessment of mandibular fractures included doing extra-oral and intra-oral clinical evaluations, as well as obtaining panoramic and posterior-anterior radiographs of the mandible to establish a diagnosis. The data collected was then subjected to statistical analysis. Result: Among the sample of 52 individuals diagnosed with mandibular fractures, the age group of 21-30 years had the greatest proportion, with a notable male preponderance. The leading causes of fractures were road traffic accidents and assault, with the parasymphysis being the most often affected anatomical region. The occurrence and aetiology of mandibular fracture are indicative of the prevailing trauma patterns in a given population and may serve as a valuable resource for informing the development of initiatives aimed at mitigating and managing such injuries. Conclusions: Patients in the older age (51 years and over) exhibited a higher prevalence of fracture sites in comparison to patients in the younger age. This observation might perhaps be ascribed to the presence of a larger tooth-to-bone ratio. As a result, a decrease in bone density was seen among participants in the younger age category, whereas those in the older age category exhibited an elevation in bone frailty Keywords: Dentate fracture, mandible, trauma

Background: The present study examined the potential use of computed tomography radiomorphometric mandibular indices on cone beam CT (CBCT) for the assessment of bone density in postmenopausal women with low bone mass. Methods: We included 104 postmenopausal women who received dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) using a DXA scanner and mental foramen (MF) region CBCT using a NewTom VGi EVO Cone Beam 3D system. We assessed the relationships between the following DXA parameters: lumbar, femoral neck, and total hip T-scores, bone mineral density (BMD), lumbar trabecular bone score (TBS), and mandibular inferior cortical bone thickness at 4 sites. The cross-sectional images were obtained, as follows: anterior (A)—10 mm anterior from the MF; molar (M)—10 mm posterior from the MF; posterior (P)—25 mm posterior from the MF; symphysis (S)—equidistant from the centers of the right and left MF. Results: We found that A and M indices showed statistically significant moderate positive correlations with lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip BMD, as well as TBS. The P index demonstrated moderate positive correlations with these measurements, while the S index did not show significant correlations with BMD or TBS in postmenopausal women. Conclusions: These findings support the potential usefulness of CBCT-derived radiomorphometric mandibular indices for non-invasive bone health assessment in clinical practice.
