Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;<span style="font-family: Andalus, serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">The position of mental foramen and its morphological variations help to localize the mental nerve and thus prevent complications during surgical procedures. My aim was t</span><span style="font-family: Andalus, serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">o study the morphological and morphometric analysis of mental foramen in adult human mandibles. </span><span style="font-family: Andalus, serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">This would help immensely in ascertaining the accurate location of the MF because of its great variability and thus avoid any unforeseen injury.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph"><span lang="EN-IN" style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Andalus&quot;,serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
