Evaluation of the Mental Foramen and Accessory Mental Foramen with Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Selcuk Dental Journal
Abstract Background The mental foramen (MF) is the opening through which the mental nerve leaves the mandible and is usually located between the roots of the first and second mandibular premolars. Some anatomical variations, such as accessory mental foramen (AMF), have been reported and must be considered to prevent clinical complications.
