dc.description.abstractBackground/Objective: This study aimed to determine the position of the mylohyoid ridge (MR) and lingual concavity (LC) in the mandible and their relationship with the mandibular canal (MC) and submandibular fossa, to provide anatomical guidance for surgical procedures in this region. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans from 200 adult patients who had undergone imaging for dental treatment. On cross-sectional images at the level between the first and second molar roots, the following measurements were obtained: LC horizontal depth, LC height, LC depth, MR height, MR depth, and the distances from MR to MC (MR–MC) and LC to MC (LC–MC). Results: Mean values were: LC horizontal depth: 3.72 ± 0.90 mm, LC height: 11.74 ± 2.01 mm, LC depth: 12.54 ± 3.03 mm, MR height: 17.66 ± 2.60 mm, MR depth: 6.87 ± 2.38 mm, MR-MC: 8.30 ± 2.00 mm, and LC-MC: 3.72 ± 0.87 mm. All parameters were symmetrical between the right and left sides of the mandible, with no significant sex differences. The positions of the MR and LC were related to each other, and the position of the MC was related to the positions of the LC and MR. There was no correlation between the horizontal depth of the LC and the position of the MR, LC and MC. Conclusions: The vertical positions of the MR and LC are related to each other and MC. Therefore, it can be used as a landmark in implant surgery.
