Implant Placement in the Posterior Mandible is important to avoid injury to the IAN

Friday, March 29, 2024

LAWRENCE, Kan., March 29, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Journal of Oral Implantology – As dentistry advances, gaining a deeper understanding of the oral cavity's anatomy and the role of each nerve and bone is paramount. One area that continues to revolutionize is implantology. While dental implants can provide an elevated level of patient care, the placement of the implant carries many inherent risks that clinicians must consider before performing the procedure. A primary focus during an implant procedure is to avoid vital structures of the jaw, including the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN). The IAN is a sensory nerve found in the mandible and, if disturbed, can result in short-term or permanent paresthesia, anesthesia, or dysesthesia.

Key Points: 
  • In a recent study, published in the Journal of Oral Implantology, researchers evaluate dental implant placement in the posterior mandible to avoid injury to the inferior alveolar nerve.
