Analysis of the sublingual artery using contrast‐enhanced computed tomography

Introduction This in vivo study aimed to clarify the position of the sublingual artery (SLA) relative to the mandibular bone and to infer the potential risk for injury during dental implant surgery. Methods Contrast‐enhanced computed tomography images of the mouth of 50 edentulous patients (100 side...

description Introduction This in vivo study aimed to clarify the position of the sublingual artery (SLA) relative to the mandibular bone and to infer the potential risk for injury during dental implant surgery. Methods Contrast‐enhanced computed tomography images of the mouth of 50 edentulous patients (100 sides) treated at Tokushima University Hospital were reviewed. Curved planar reconstructed images perpendicular to the alveolar ridge were processed and classified into molar, premolar, canine, and incisor regions. The SLA and its branches were identified, and the distance from the mandible to the SLA was measured. Results The SLA was located close to the mandible (

Curved planar reconstructed images perpendicular to the alveolar ridge were processed and classified into molar, premolar, canine, and incisor regions. The SLA and its branches were identified, and the distance from the mandible to the SLA was measured. Results The SLA was located close to the mandible (&lt;2 mm) in the molar, premolar, canine, and incisor segments in 12.0% (95% confidence interval 5.6%–18.4%), 20.6% (12.6%–28.7%), 30.5% (21.3%–39.8%), and 41.8% (28.8%–54.9%) cases, respectively. The SLA was located within ±3 mm craniocaudally to the upper wall of the mandibular canal in the molar and premolar regions in 50% of cases and within ±5 mm craniocaudally to the mylohyoid ridge in the canine and incisor regions in the other cases, with no sex or age‐related differences. The vertical distance from the alveolar ridge to the SLA was influenced by sex and age owing to alveolar resorption, indicating that the alveolar ridge is not a reliable reference for predicting SLA position.
