Cone beam computed tomography was used for measuring the diameter of a Mandibular incisive canal. The dental practice can now visualize small bone structures with low dose and high spatial resolution due to the introduction of CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography). Therefore, it is of interest to measure the diameter of the MIC (Mandibular Incisive Canal) using the CBCT. Fifty CBCT scans obtained for implant placement preoperative planning were included in the study material. Observers carefully examined the CBCT data to determine the MIC's presence & position. The inner diameter of the MIC was measured by taking the longest distance between the inner cortical borders of the canal which was further analyzed using software CS3D software. The collected data were further subjected to statistical analysis. The average mean of the population was 1.7130±.5178. The average diameter of MIC in males was 1.735±.5406 and in females was 1.6800±.4934. Complications from implant surgery in the anterior mandible may be prevented by utilizing CBCT scans to analyze the smallest diameter of the MIC.
锥形束计算机断层扫描用于测量下颌切牙管的直径。由于锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)的引入,牙科诊所现在可以用低剂量和高空间分辨率可视化小的骨结构。因此,使用CBCT测量下颌切牙管(MIC)的直径是有意义的。该研究材料包括50例用于种植术前规划的CBCT扫描。观察者仔细检查CBCT数据以确定MIC的存在和位置。通过测量管内皮质边界之间的最长距离来测量MIC的内径,并使用CS3D软件进一步分析。收集的数据进一步进行统计分析。总体的平均均值为1.7130±0.5178。男性MIC的平均直径为1.735±0.5406,女性为1.6800±0.4934。通过利用CBCT扫描分析MIC的最小直径,可以预防下颌前部种植手术的并发症。
