Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı; bir grup Türk alt popülasyonunda mandibular dişlerin köklerine göre mental foramenin (MF) horizontal, vertikal konumunu ve anterior loop (AL) görülme sıklığını panoramik radyografi ve konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi (KIBT) görüntüleri üzerinden değerlendirmekti. Ayrıca her iki görüntüleme yöntemi arasında AL görülme sıklığını tespit etmede fark olup olmadığını belirlemekti.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışmaya dahil edilme/dışlama kriterini sağlayan 16 ile 80 yaşları arasında 435 hasta dahil edilmiştir. Mental foramenin horizontal konumu mandibular 1. premolar diş (PM1), mandibular 2. premolar diş (PM2) ve mandibular 1. molar dişe göre, vertikal konumu da PM1’nin ve PM2’nin apekslerini birleştiren yatay çizgiye göre belirlenmiştir. AL görülme sıklığı ise inferior alveolar sinirin üç farklı yapıda sonlanmasına göre değerlendirilmiştir. Verilerin normal dağılıma uygunluğu Kruskal Wallis ve Shapiro Wilk testi ile analiz edilmiş olup, kategorik değişkenler arasındaki farklılıkların saptanmasında ki-kare analizi kullanılmıştır. Gerekli koşullarda Yates düzeltmesi ve Fisher Exact testi kullanılmıştır. p

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the horizontal and vertical position of the mental foramen (MF) relative to the roots of the mandibular teeth and the incidence of anterior loop (AL) in a group of Turkish subpopulations on panoramic radiography and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. It was also to determine whether there was a difference in detecting the incidence of AL between both imaging methods.Methods: This study included 435 patients aged 16 to 80 years who met the inclusion/exclusion criteria. The horizontal position of the mental foramen was determined according to the mandibular 1st premolar tooth (PM1), mandibular 2nd premolar tooth (PM2) and mandibular 1st molar tooth, and its vertical position was determined according to the horizontal line connecting the apex of PM1 and PM2. The incidence of AL was evaluated according to the termination of the inferior alveolar nerve in three different structures. The suitability of the data to normal distribution was tested with the Kruskal Wallis and Shapiro Wilk test, and Chi-square analysis was used to determine the differences between categorical variables. Yates correction and Fisher Exact test were used when necessary. p
