Assessment of the submandibular fossa depth and diameter of the mandibular canal via cone beam computed tomography: a comparative study
CBCT provides valuable insights into mandibular anatomy. Although certain anatomical differences were observed between sexes, particularly in MC diameter, not all findings reached statistical significance. These results suggest the importance of individualized radiographic assessment during surgical planning.
