Evaluation of the position variation of mandibular foramen

INTRODUCTION: Mandibular foramen is located on the internal surface of the ramus of the mandible.Through this opening mandibular nerve and vessels enter the mandibular canal.As there are no palpable landmarks that allow determining Background the position of the mandibular foramen precisely, it is helpful to use radiological imaging methods for thi
