Abstract :
The human mandible has been a fascinating subject of study and extensive research in the realm of human anatomy because of its intricate structure and remarkable variation. One important mandibular anatomical component with clinical significance is the mental foramen. An uncommon anatomical variant is accessory mental foramen. Nevertheless, after mandibular surgery, special attention should be given to the potential existence of one or more auxiliary mental foramen in order to prevent neurovascular problems. In this instance, we describe a variant that was perceived as an incidental radiologic finding: bilateral accessory mental foramen.
