A variation in the position of the mental foramen: a case report.

Sonal Shah1, Suhas Vaze, Kriti Kinhal.   

Abstract

The most common position of mental foramen in the human mandible is apical to the second premolar. Literature reports that mental foramen lies either anterior to the first premolar or posterior to the first molar in only 1-2% of cases. A case with a rare variation in position of the mental foramen is presented here.
