%X The mental foramen is a single anatomical structure that can be seen bilaterally in the body of the mandible and generally in the lower area of the premolars. Sometimes, the mental foramen can have accessory foramina that should be considered. Clinical evaluation of the accessory mental foramina is critical because of its neurovascular fibers. Identifying the secondary mental foramen reduces the possibility of paraesthesia and pain after surgery.
