The measurements on digital radiography are quite acceptable and reliable for clinical use as long as the structures do not traverse the midline. Repeated measurements lead to a reduction in the systematic error and magnification to a loss of accuracy. The study was planned on the Department of Dentistry Anugrah Narayan Magadh Medical College and Hospital, Gaya.on 30 implants in the posterior mandibular regions. The digital panoramic radiographic images were taken using implants in the posterior mandibular regions. The digital panoramic radiographic equipment used. All digital panoramic radiographs were taken by technicians according to standard protocol provided by the manufacturer. This study is aimed to determine the accuracy of the vertical and horizontal measurements on digital panoramic radiographic images using implants in the posterior mandibular regions.

Their incidence varies among different populations and they constitute an anthropo- logical marker. Precise mechanism of formation is unknown and being under the control of genetic background and environmental factors. The aim of the current study is to investigate the incidence of WBs presence, number and topographical distribution according to gender and side in Greek adult dry skulls. Materials and methods: All sutures and fontanelles of 166 Greek adult dry skulls were examined for the presence, topography and number of WBs. One hundred and nineteen intact and 47 horizontally craniotomised skulls were examined for WBs presence on either side of the cranium, both exocranially and intracranially. Results: One hundred and twenty-four (74.7%) skulls had WBs.

  • Chapter 2 Implants and Oral Anatomy
    Chapter 2 Implants and oral anatomy Associate Professor of Maxillofacial Anatomy Section, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Tokyo Medical and Dental University Tatsuo Terashima In recent years, the development of new materials and improvements in the operative methods used for implants have led to remarkable progress in the field of dental surgery. These methods have been applied widely in clinical practice. The development of computerized medical imaging technologies such as X-ray computed tomography have allowed detailed 3D-analysis of medical conditions, resulting in a dramatic improvement in the success rates of operative intervention. For treatment with a dental implant to be successful, it is however critical to have full knowledge and understanding of the fundamental anatomical structures of the oral and maxillofacial regions. In addition, it is necessary to understand variations in the topographic and anatomical structures among individuals, with age, and with pathological conditions. This chapter will discuss the basic structure of the oral cavity in relation to implant treatment. I. Osteology of the oral area The oral cavity is composed of the maxilla that is in contact with the cranial bone, palatine bone, the mobile mandible, and the hyoid bone. The maxilla and the palatine bones articulate with the cranial bone. The mandible articulates with the temporal bone through the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The hyoid bone is suspended from the cranium and the mandible by the suprahyoid and infrahyoid muscles. The formation of the basis of the oral cavity by these bones and the associated muscles makes it possible for the oral cavity to perform its various functions.

  • Lab Manual Axial Skeleton Atla
    1 PRE-LAB EXERCISES When studying the skeletal system, the bones are often sorted into two broad categories: the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. This lab focuses on the axial skeleton, which consists of the bones that form the axis of the body. The axial skeleton includes bones in the skull, vertebrae, and thoracic cage, as well as the auditory ossicles and hyoid bone. In addition to learning about all the bones of the axial skeleton, it is also important to identify some significant bone markings. Bone markings can have many shapes, including holes, round or sharp projections, and shallow or deep valleys, among others. These markings on the bones serve many purposes, including forming attachments to other bones or muscles and allowing passage of a blood vessel or nerve. It is helpful to understand the meanings of some of the more common bone marking terms. Before we get started, look up the definitions of these common bone marking terms: Canal: Condyle: Facet: Fissure: Foramen: (see Module 10.18 Foramina of Skull) Fossa: Margin: Process: Throughout this exercise, you will notice bold terms. This is meant to focus your attention on these important words. Make sure you pay attention to any bold words and know how to explain their definitions and/or where they are located. Use the following modules to guide your exploration of the axial skeleton. As you explore these bones in Visible Body’s app, also locate the bones and bone markings on any available charts, models, or specimens. You may also find it helpful to palpate bones on yourself or make drawings of the bones with the bone markings labeled.

Special Issue Vol 13 No 8 2020 Pp-104-107 Morphometric Analysis of Chin Shape in Inverted Mandible and Mid Symphysis Menti Angle Sachin Aditya B1 and Yuvaraj Babu K2* 1Saveetha Dental college and Hospitals, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences, Saveetha University, Chennai - 600077, India 2Assistant professor, Department of Anatomy, Saveetha Dental college and Hospitals, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences, Saveetha University, Chennai - 600077, India ABSTRACT In human anatomy, the skull 's facial skeleton, the outer surface of the mandible, is distinguished by a slight ridge in the median line, suggesting the mandibular symphysis or junction line in which the two lateral halves of the mandible usually unite at an early life (1-2 years). This is not a true symphysis, since there is no cartilage between the mandible's two hands. The main aim of the study is to measure the mid symphysis menti angle in the inverted aspect. 30 unsexed dry human skulls were taken from the Department of Anatomy, Saveetha Dental College and Hospital. Protractor was used to measure the mid symphysis menti angle in the inverted aspect of the mandible. The average measurement of mid symphysis menti angle was 76.16° and the shape of the mental protuberance for most of the samples were oval shaped. Our study has tried to analyse the mid symphysis menti angle and chin shape in the inverted aspect of mandibles, this data may be useful for surgeons in planning their surgery in the mandibular region.

  • Atlas of the Facial Nerve and Related Structures
    Rhoton Yoshioka Atlas of the Facial Nerve Unique Atlas Opens Window and Related Structures Into Facial Nerve Anatomy… Atlas of the Facial Nerve and Related Structures and Related Nerve Facial of the Atlas “His meticulous methods of anatomical dissection and microsurgical techniques helped transform the primitive specialty of neurosurgery into the magnificent surgical discipline that it is today.”— Nobutaka Yoshioka American Association of Neurological Surgeons. Albert L. Rhoton, Jr. Nobutaka Yoshioka, MD, PhD and Albert L. Rhoton, Jr., MD have created an anatomical atlas of astounding precision. An unparalleled teaching tool, this atlas opens a unique window into the anatomical intricacies of complex facial nerves and related structures. An internationally renowned author, educator, brain anatomist, and neurosurgeon, Dr. Rhoton is regarded by colleagues as one of the fathers of modern microscopic neurosurgery. Dr. Yoshioka, an esteemed craniofacial reconstructive surgeon in Japan, mastered this precise dissection technique while undertaking a fellowship at Dr. Rhoton’s microanatomy lab, writing in the preface that within such precision images lies potential for surgical innovation. Special Features • Exquisite color photographs, prepared from carefully dissected latex injected cadavers, reveal anatomy layer by layer with remarkable detail and clarity • An added highlight, 3-D versions of these extraordinary images, are available online in the Thieme MediaCenter • Major sections include intracranial region and skull, upper facial and midfacial region, and lower facial and posterolateral neck region Organized by region, each layered dissection elucidates specific nerves and structures with pinpoint accuracy, providing the clinician with in-depth anatomical insights. Precise clinical explanations accompany each photograph. In tandem, the images and text provide an excellent foundation for understanding the nerves and structures impacted by neurosurgical-related pathologies as well as other conditions and injuries.
