Cephalometric studies of the mandible, its masticatory muscles and vasculature of growing Göttingen Minipigs — A comparative anatomical study to refine experimental mandibular surgery [PDF]
Over many decades, the Göttingen Minipig has been used as a large animal model in experimental surgical research of the mandible. Recently several authors have raised concerns over the use of the Göttingen Minipig in this research area, observing ...

Stafne Bone Cyst in the Right Mandibular Angle Region: A Case Report with Literature Review
Stafne bone cysts (SBC) are rare, small, well-demarcated, and radiolucent lesions that usually occur below the mandibular canal near the mandibular angle. Despite several theories, the etiopathogenesis of SBC remains unknown. As SBCs usually show no clinical signs, radiographic evaluation is the first stage of the diagnostic process.

Do erupted third molars weaken the mandibular angle after trauma to the chin region? A 3D finite element study [PDF]
It has been suggested that third molars increase mandibular fragility because they do not contribute to its strength. For ethical reasons, a human study design that would permit the elucidation of this interference is not possible. This study evaluated the impact of the presence of erupted third molars on the mandibular angle of resistance when ...

Background: The position and angulation of mandibular third molars (M3) have been found to influence the angle and condylar fractures. Due to variation in the results of relevant studies, this relationship remains not fully understood. Objective: To identify the association between the depth and angulation of M3 and the risk of fracture of the ...

A case of odontoameloblastoma of the mandibular angle region.
Recently, we encountered a rare case of odontoameloblastoma that developed in the mandibular angle region.The patient was a 35-year-old woman who was initially brought to our department because of a swelling on the right side of the mandibular angle region. On examination her general condition was good, and there were no abnormal findings.
