Abstract:
0.05). There was considerable difference in the upper and lower position of mandibular foramen between control and experimental group. It appeared that the distance of mandibular foramen from mandibular notch is 20.66mm (average) for the normal occlusion and 17.785mm(average)for the mandibular prognathism. So we can see the distance of mandibular foramen from mandibular notch for patients is more near 2.815mm (average) than normals. For the distance of mandibular foramen from the extension line of occlusal plane, it's 0.92mm (average) lower than occlusal plane for the normal and 0.5mm (average) upper for the patient. It's located 1.42mm (average) upper part of the patient.]]>
