Inferior alveolar nerve bypass is a technique in which implants are placed bypassing the nerve, lingually or buccally. The objectives are to assess the bone around the mandibular canal on buccal and lingual sides and place implants in the posterior region of the atrophic mandible using the inferior alveolar nerve bypass technique.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The bone with respect to IAC in 60 sites from 10 patients was assessed on both sides of the atrophic mandible. Measurements were taken at 10 mm, 20 mm, and 30 mm from the mesial aspect of the retromolar pad. After assessment, 20 implants were placed bypassing IAC in five patients, and postoperatively, neurosensitivity test was performed. Descriptive analysis was used to compare the different measurements from the retromolar pad on the right and left sides. Unpaired \u2018t\u2019 test was used.

IAC is placed more lingually toward the medial border of the retromolar pad and then becomes buccally in the premolar region.
