Key Points

The study found a prevalence of accessory mental foramen at 9.4%, highlighting its clinical relevance.
Overall, the diameters of the mental foramen on the right and left sides were recorded as 2.06 mm and 1.91 mm, respectively.
244 cone beam computed tomography images were analyzed, measuring several distances related to the mental and accessory mental foramina.
The findings suggest that the measurements vary by gender, indicating a need for tailored clinical approaches in dental practices.
