“…These same studies also reported that the incidence and number of nutrient canals increases in edentulous patients. 5,6,8,9 In our study, it was observed that the incidence of nutrient canals was 71.2% for the total combined sample of normotensive and hypertensive edentulous patients, and this finding is in agreement with the incidences reported in similar normotensive and hypertensive populations. A possible correlation between the radiographic appearance of nutrient canals and systemic disease has been identified.…”

“…An increased prevalence of nutrient canals was observed in completely edentulous patients when compared to partially edentulous patients. This was in agreement with studies carried out by Bilge OM et al 10 and Kishi et al 9 . Wood NK et al 11 reported that nutrient canals appear much more pronounced on intra oral periapical radiographs when the teeth are missing.…”

“…The results of this study are in accordance with the study by Kishi et al [13] who stated that the incidence of nutrient canals was high in edentulous patients and this could be associated with resorption of the alveolar bone following alveolar tooth loss and the thickness of the remaining alveolar bone.…”

“…This was in accordance with studies done by Kishi et al [13], Britt [10] and Ryder [17]. The presence of nutrient canals appeared to be associated with the presence of periodontal disease which leads to sclerotic changes in trabecular bone patterns and also nutrient canals appear more pronounced due to the ability of radiographs to record the thinner bony structures more clearly.…”
