Morphometric analysis of mandibular notch in dry human mandibles- A surgeon's guide to the masseteric nerve block

open access: yesCumhuriyet Dental Journal, 2022
Background: The mandibular notch allows passage of masseteric vessels and nerve to the deep aspect of the masseteric muscle. The existing data gives a fairer idea in locating the masseteric nerve but does not consider much of the various shapes and sizes

Unmyelinated Nerve Fibers of the Human Mandibular Nerve

open access: yesOkajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 2001
The aim of this research is to find and to evaluate morphometorically the unmyelinated nerve fibers in the human mandibular nerve using a light microscope. Our report demonstrates for the first time the presence of the unmyelinated nerve fibers of the human mandibular nerve stained by a special method.
