Morphometric Predictors of Lingual Undercut Depth in the Posterior Mandible and their Relevance to Immediate Dental Implant Insertion: Recommendations for CBCT

SUMMARY: Deep lingual undercut (LU) is commonly encountered in the posterior mandible, and is considered a risk factor in dental implants. In this study we investigated the value of data extracted from OPGs in predicting LU depth. Such predictors might be valuable in reducing the chance of lingual p...
