Patients\u2019 demographics, year and source of LCs, interval between the procedure that resulted in a neurosensory deficiency and the LC, qualifications of the surgeon, preoperative imaging modality, DI length, available alveolar bone for DI placement, placement site, timing of DI placement (immediately after tooth extraction or after socket healing), and treatment after the diagnosis of neurosensory deficiency were recorded and analyzed.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> There were 21 cases during the first 5 years of the study (mean 4.2\/year) and 63 cases (mean 12.6\/year) over the following 5 years.

Most LCs (76%) involved procedures that were planned and performed according to radiographs and 24% after computed tomography. Sixty\u2010five percent of the LCs were performed by general dental practitioners and 35% by specialists.
