Why is it important?
The possible variations of canalis sinuosus amongst Australian populations were assessed to explore potential surgical complications. Also, this will drive clinical surgical protocols and determine whether routine CBCT prescription and analysis of the anterior maxilla before surgery are justified.
Perspectives
