Abstract
Aim and objective: To evaluate the presence, width and the initial part of mandibular incisive canal (MIC) and its relationship with the mental foramen (MF) in 60 CBCT scans for pre-surgical implant planning. Material and methods: In this retrospective analysis, random samples of 60 mandibular CBCT scans were taken to examine the dimension of MIC and its relationship to MF. Result: The location and measurements of the MIC in a contiguous system is measured by 60 CBCT scans. MIC was identified in 71.67 percent of cases with a mean diameter of 2.56mm, i.e. 45% started before MF and 26% began extremely close to foramen. Conclusion: The results from this analysis indicates that the pre-surgical preparation of the MIC in CBCT should be performed in order to ensure a minimally invasive and optimum location of the implant.
