    Multiple mandibular canals are common anatomical variations. These often go unrecognized in panoramic radiographs, despite being visible, indicating a need for careful review.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Anatomy
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • The mandibular canal is a critical anatomical structure in the mandible.
    • Variations in mandibular canal anatomy can impact dental procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the prevalence of multiple mandibular canals.
    • To emphasize the frequent under-recognition of these anatomical variations in panoramic radiography.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of panoramic radiographs.
    • Analysis of mandibular canal anatomy.

    Main Results:

    • Multiple mandibular canals are present in a significant portion of the population.
    • These canals are often overlooked during routine radiographic interpretation.

    Conclusions:

    • Multiple mandibular canals are common anomalies, not rare findings.
    • Radiographic interpretation requires thoroughness to identify these variations.
