Detection of Inferior Alveolar Nerve Canal by Feature based Machine Learning Approach

Inferior alveolar nerve hemangioma.

A 14-year-old male presented with lower lip numbness and a slowly enlarging mandibular mass. Computed tomography demonstrated an expansile lesion centered in the marrow space of the left mandibular body, extending along the course of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), and expanding the mental foramen. Preoperative diagnosis was consistent with an IAN schwannoma. Surgical planning was performed ...

Inferior Alveolar Nerve

Dental Update – September 2003 3 7 5 Abstract: The surgical removal of lower third molars endangers both the lingual and inferior alveolar nerves. Patients sustaining an injury to either of these nerves must be managed correctly, and this requires a diagnosis of the injury type and regular monitoring of the recovery of sensation. Surgical intervention for a damaged inferior alveolar nerve is no...

Inferior Alveolar Nerve Damage Related to Mandibular Advancement by Sagittal Split Osteotomy

Background and Objectives: Split sagittal osteotomy is a common operation that may induce inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) damage, potentially leading to sensory deficit, numbness, and pain. Investigations in Iran to evaluate the adverse effects of sagittal split osteotomy surgery are rare so questions have been raised about the success rate of operatio...

Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block Revisited.

Mandibular third molar and inferior alveolar canal.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of Inferior Alveolar Nerve (IAN) damage after surgical removal of lower third molars, to identify the cause and to construct a predictive model to assess the risk of IAN injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were selected from the out patient department after proper clinical and radiological evaluation of mandibular third molar...
