Abstract

AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of this study is to evaluate the distance between the apices of molars & premolars to inferior nerve canal and mylohyoid line to establish a relationship between the mandibular canal and mylohyoid line. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 100 CBCT of patient’s cross-sections of 1st premolars, 2nd premolars, 1st molars, 2nd molars were extracted following the inclusion criteria. Linear dimension between mylohyoid ridge to apex of the root, apex of the root to superior border of the mandibular canal, mylohyoid ridge to the superior border of the mandibular canal were measured digitally from CBCT on the left and right-side using CS 3D imaging software version 3.8. RESULTS: In average distance between the root apex to mandibular canal in right 1st molar mesial and distal root is 5.69mm &5.87mm respectively, in left 1st molar mesial and distal root is 5.76mm & 5.80mm respectively, in right 2nd molar mesial & distal root is 4.98mm & 4.55mm respectively and in the left 2nd molar mesial & distal root is 5.02 & 4.35mm respectively. The left 2nd molar distal root was closest to the mandibular canal with mean value of 4.35mm and the right first premolar root was the most distant to the mandibular canal with mean value of 5.47mm. The risk of damage to mandibular canal in the left 2nd molar region is higher. CONCLUSION: This study could help the clinician by providing anatomical guidelines about the relative position of the mandibular canal to that of root apices and mylohyoid ridge. The coarse and position of the mylohyoid line is illustrated.
