The Study of Inferior Alveolar Canal at the Lower Third Molar Apical Region With Cone Beam Computed Tomography.

Background: The aim of this study was to determine the distance between the impacted mandibular third molar (IMTM) and the inferior alveolar canal (IAC) at different reference points through panoramic radiographs and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Methods: A total of 45 male and 45 female patients with bilateral IMTM at a mean age of 27 years were recruited for this study. With the aid of panaromic radiographs and CBCT, the mandible width, the buccal bone width, IAC width, the lingual bone width, IAC height, the alveolar bone height, and the distance from the lowest part of the IMTM to the superior border of the canal were measured.
