title: The measurements of some anthropometric landmarks of the mandible; a preliminary anatomical study.
abstract: In this study, the morphometric measurements were done on human cadaver mandibles including ramus height and width, angle between ramus and corpus, the relation between foramen mentale and teeth. The aim of this study was to establish some standards with the achieved results in order to expand these studies in some reconstructive surgical areas. As a result, the standard measurements were established under the heads of short and long ramus, acute and obtuse angle mandibles.
