Abstract:
Abstract: Surgical interventions in the anterior region of the human mandible are associated with many complications. Some anatomical structures like the median perforating canal were discovered in mammals. Such canals may be a cause of concern that needs attention in human mandible. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the occurrence, location, and course of median perforating canal and its associated extensions in the anterior segment of the human mandible in cone beam computed tomography scans (CBCT). Data were collected from 160 CBCT scans, and evaluated. The incidence was 23.75% for median perforating canal with wide anatomical variations concerning the related lingual and labial extensions. Median perforating canal and their associated lingual and labial foramina are frequently seen in human mandible. A thorough investigation of the symphyseal region using CBCT must be taken into account when targeting surgical intervention in this area.
