A total of 243 patients (116 males, 127 females) aged 16\u201383 years for whom previous CBCT scans were available were enrolled in this study. The patients were subcategorized by sex and age (Group I, &lt;21 years; Group II, 21\u201340 years; and Group III, &gt;40 years). The distances between the mandibular canal and the molars and premolars were measured. The mandibular canal was significantly closer to the root apices of the second and third molars than to the apices of other evaluated teeth (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). All measurements were significantly higher in male than in female subjects (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). Group I subjects exhibited significantly shorter distances between the mandibular canal and root apices of the first and second premolars, and the molars, than those of Group II and III subjects (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). Direct contact relationships were found in 1.6%, 3.3%, 3.3%, 16%, and 32.2% of teeth (running from the first premolar to the third molar, respectively). Age and sex influenced the anatomical relationships between mandibular teeth and the mandibular canal, and these should be considered when planning endodontic and surgical procedures to avoid potential nerve injury.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jemt.22980","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,29]],"date-time":"2017-12-29T03:53:31Z","timestamp":1514519611000},"page":"308-314","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":39,"title":["A cone\u2010beam computed tomography study of the anatomical relationships between mandibular teeth and the mandibular canal, with a review of the current literature"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"81","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7281-508X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Umut","family":"Aksoy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endodontics, Faculty of Dentistry Near East University Dikmen, Lefkosa, Mersin 10, 99138 Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Se\u00e7il","family":"Aksoy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dentomaxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry Near East University Dikmen, Lefkosa, Mersin 10, 99138 Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6768-0176","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kaan","family":"Orhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dentomaxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry Ankara University Besevler, Ankara, 06500 Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,29]]},"reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e1103","DOI":"10.4317\/medoral.18190","article-title":"Patient\u2010specific factors in the proximity of the inferior alveolar nerve to the tooth apex","volume":"17","author":"Adig\u00fczel \u00d6.","year":"2012","journal-title":"Medicina Oral Patologia Oral y Cirugia Bucal"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"321","DOI":"10.1007\/s12663-015-0843-9","article-title":"Neuropathy of trigeminal nerve branches after oral and maxillofacial treatment","volume":"15","author":"Agbaje J.
