AbstractIt was aimed to evaluate the frequency of accessory mental foramen (AMF) and accessory infraorbital foramen (AIOF) and analyse the correlation between these two foramina using cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT). The retrospective study reviewed the CBCT images of 1020 patients. The rates of AMF and AIOF were evaluated according to sex and age

Lingual accessory mental foramen: a report of an extremely rare anatomical variation
The presence of accessory foramina and canals in the mandible is frequently overlooked in clinical procedures. It is important to note that these anatomical variations may only be pre-surgically detected on imaging exams, and such detection may directly influence therapeutic success.

Accessory Mental Foramen and Maxillofacial Surgery
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2018Abstract Accessory mental foramens should be considered in surgical procedures performed in mandibular body and symphysis. Location and content of these foramina has significant impact on the result of surgery. Lip numbness is the catastrophic result if these foramina are violated while their content is nerves that ...

Accessory mental foramen: an anatomical study on dry mandibles and review of the literature
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2014Since numerous surgical procedures in oral and maxillofacial surgery as well as several aspects of dental practice involve the mental region, the knowledge of its anatomical variations is essential for the clinician. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the incidence and the anatomical features of the accessory mental foramen, which ...

RADIOGRAPHIC IDENTIFICATION OF UNILATERAL ACCESSORY MENTAL FORAMEN - ANATOMICAL VARIATION
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, 2023The importance of detecting anatomical variations plays an important role in avoiding certain inadvertent complications, minor/major. The occurrence of multiple mental foramens is not uncommon, but is unusual. It is very important to recognise these anatomical alterations while performing surgical interventions, or anesthetising the mental nerve ...

Variation in accessory mental foramen frequency and number in extant hominoids
The Anatomical Record, 2019AbstractNerves providing sensation to the lower face and jaw exit the mandibular canal via the mental foramen. In humans, there are many documented occurrences of additional foramina (accessory mental foramina, AMFs) on the lateral mandibular surface that may also contain nervous structures. There are large discrepancies in the literature regarding how

Accessory lingual mental foramen: A case report of a rare anatomic variation
Oral RadiologyThe mandibular nerve and the mental foramen have occasionally shown variations in its anatomy. This report aims to present a case of lingual mental foramen recognised on three-dimensional cone beam computed tomographic imaging (CBCT).Routine Orthopantomogram (OPG) and CBCT images were evaluated to assess the status of impact third molars in a 31-year ...
