Özet

It was aimed to evaluate the frequency of accessory mental foramen (AMF) and accessory infraorbital foramen (AIOF) and analyse the correlation between these two foramina using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The retrospective study reviewed the CBCT images of 1020 patients. The rates of AMF and AIOF were evaluated according to sex and age distributions. Correlations between the localizations of AMF and AIOF in the right and left jaws and the correlations between the occurrences of these foramina were evaluated. In the CBCT images of the 1020 patients, AMFs were detected in 48 patients, among which 14 were in the right half jaw, and 34 were in the left half jaw. AIOFs were detected in 143 patients, among which 65 were in the right half jaw, and 78 were in the left half jaw. Recognising and detecting AMF and AIOF with CBCT is important in terms of preventing complications that may occur in surgical procedures.
