Abstract
Among 47.1% of cone beam computerized scans, Inferior alveolar nerve was present buccal to the mandibular 3rd molar with
27% having direct contact. 17.1% scans had Inferior alveolar nerve present lingual to the mandibular third molar with 41.6% having
direct contact. Inferior alveolar nerve in 27.1% of scans was placed inferior to the mandibular 3rd molar with 57.8% having direct
contact. In the remaining 8.6% of scans, Inferior alveolar nerve were present in the interradicular position with 100 percent having
direct contact. P- value of buccal and interradicular position was found to be significant(p<0.05)
