Abstract
An histological examination of inferior alveolar arteries removed at post-mortem, from 16 human subjects failed to show significant age-related changes in luminal patency which would lead to narrowing and eventual obliteration of this structure. It is suggested that the artery continues, throughout life, to provide the major internal blood supply to the mandible.Entities:
