OBJECTIVE Evaluate the position of mental foramen by measuring the vertical bone height from digital panoramic radiograph and also the variation of resorption pattern by gender and extraction time frame. Materials and methods/study design: Digital panoramic radiographs of 500 patients were reviewed. The study population was divided into four age groups aged 30 to 70 years as (30-39, 40-49, 50-5...

Descriptive skull anatomy and morphological variations occurring in its important foramina have a profound effect on the development of modern neurosurgery. Variations in skull foramina usually occur in the form of duplication, multiplication and partial or complete absence. This case report describes two extremely rare foramen variations occurring simultaneously in a dry human skull; presence ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine and compare the reliability to accomplish of common mandibular landmarks and to determine the incidence of incisive canals, anterior looping, and lingual foramina in children from panoramic and CBCT images. DESIGN Panoramic and CBCT images from 100 children and adolescent patients were randomly selected. In order to grade the visibility of mand...

Objective: This research was aimed at telling the anatomical characteristics of accessory supraorbital foramen (ASOF) in relation to main (SOF), which is necessary clinical situations that require regional surgical procedures.
 Methods: A total dedicated presence and location 72 dry Indian adults unknown age sex were investigated. In each skull, ASOF measured on both sides with a Vernier c...

This work investigated and analysed some morphometrical measurements of mandibles and maxillofacial regions of ten adult Kuri cattle (above 5 years) skulls that were apparently free from musculoskeletal deformity. A total of 19 (13 mandibular and 6 maxillofacial) parameters were taken. The mean mandibular length and height were found to be 41.3 ± 2.35 cm and 22.6 ± 1.40 cm, while the mean menta...
