Introduction: Implant placement requires an understanding of regional anatomy and a precise knowledge of the location of important anatomic structures such as the inferior alveolar nerve and maxillary sinus. At its anterior exit the inferior nerve creates a loop before exiting through the mental foramen. The dimensions of the anterior loop of inferior alveolar nerve are variable among individuals. This study was undertaken to assess the variability in the dimensions of this loop, so as to achieve predictable implant placement in the area of mental foramen.
