Sažetak
The bifid mandibular canal represents an anatomical variation of the lower jaw and the first case was presented in 1973. The bifid mandibular canal can be detected by panoramic radiography imaging or CBCT analysis. The most commonly used classification is the one by Langleis. Panoramic radiography imaging were analysed and the incidence of bifid mandibular canal amounted to 4.93%. In our study, the most common types were type II and V according to Langleis, which also carry the most risk for iatrogenic injury of the lower alveolar nerve during surgical procedures such as dental implant placement. In addition to the dental implant placement, the bifid mandibular canal is a potential problem and can cause possible surgical complications after orthognathic surgery, bone grafting in the angle of the mandible and alveolotomy of the lower wisdom teeth. According to the literature, the incidence of bifid mandibular canal is 3-8% (panoramic radiography imaging analysis) and 7-13% (CBCT analysis). In conclusion, detailed analysis of radiologic imaging (panoramic radiography and CBCT images) should be obligatory before every intraoral surgical treatment in order to modify surgical procedure and prevent potential complications.
