Introduction: The increased use of implants and potential endodontic misadventures can lead to nerve damage. The purpose of this study was to use cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) measurements to investigate mandibular canal (MC) location in relation to mandibular posterior teeth, the dimension of the buccal and lingual bone over the MC, the diameter of the MC, and the anterior loop location near the mental foramen.
Methods: CBCT scans from 106 patients (age, 18-69 years) were used to evaluate measurements from 636 teeth and respective MC areas.
