Abstract | ||||
Aim: Objectives: The present study was performed to evaluate radiographically and asses the relation between impacted mandibular third molar and inferior alveolar canal .Subjects and Methods: 100 patients were divided into two groups. Group I: According to gender Group II: According to age. Digital imaging and communication in medicine (DICOM) data of the patient was imported and analysed using Romexis software. After importing the patient data, patient axis and position were modified to be in a standard position. The axial cut was modified to be at the level of alveolar crest of the lower arch then a customized arch curvature and thickness were done to have a good form of reconstructed panoramic like view .Results: there was no statistical significant different between tow group on contact and proximity between IMTM and IAC .Conclusions: There is no difference in the contact between the nearest apex of impacted mandibular third molar and superior border of inferior alveolar canal between gender and age groups. There is no difference in the distance (proximity) between the impacted mandibular third molar and inferior alveolar canal between gender and age groups. | ||||
