The anterior loop of the inferior alveolar nerve is the portion of the nerve that is located anterior to the mental foramen before it exits the canal.
The objective of the research was to assess anterior loop in the Odisha population.
For this study, a random selection of 100 CBCT scans representing 200 hemi-mandibles was made. Descriptive statistics were used to compute the distribution of the mental nerve pattern according to gender, age, and the presence or absence of dysplastic features. Frequency and percentages were then used to show the results.
There was significant difference among male and female on left and right side for anterior loop. 28% of studied population had loop and 72% without loop out of 100 participants. Pattern III was common type followed by patter I. Right side had slightly more loop than left side. Loop length distribution was significant.
It was concluded that loop is a common finding; hence it must be evaluated before doing any surgical procedure in that anatomical location.
下牙槽神经前袢是该神经在穿出管腔之前位于颏孔前方的部分。
本研究的目的是评估奥里萨邦人群中的前袢情况。
在本研究中，随机选取了代表200个半侧下颌骨的100份CBCT扫描图像。采用描述性统计方法，根据性别、年龄以及发育异常特征的有无，计算颏神经形态的分布情况。然后用频率和百分比来展示结果。
前袢在男性和女性的左右两侧存在显著差异。在100名参与者中，28%的研究对象有袢，72%没有袢。III型是常见类型，其次是I型。右侧的袢略多于左侧。袢长度分布具有显著性。
得出的结论是，袢是常见的发现；因此，在该解剖部位进行任何外科手术之前，都必须对其进行评估。
