Aim:
The aim of the study is to evaluate the appearance, location, course and morphology of the mandibular incisive canal using Orthopantomogram in the South Indian population based on gender and age group.
Materials and Methods: The study consisted of 2000 OPG's ranging from 18 yrs to 75 yrs at Saveetha Dental College & Dental Hospital, Chennai to evaluate the appearance and visibility of anatomical structure of mandible on Orthopantomogram - Mandibular canal, mental foramen, incisive canal, lingual foramen . OPG's with malinformation, trauma, muscoskeletal disorder were excluded from the study.
