For centuries mandibular canal (MC) has been a paramount topic of discussion and with the invention of CBCT we can finally decipher the canal in great detail. In OMFS, routinely IOPAs, OPG, MRI, CT form the mainstream of diagnostic tools. CBCT machine which produces superior image quality with 1:1 measurement 3D display has added further dimension to the diagnosis and treatment planning. CBCT acts as a guide to prevent damage to the neurovascular bundle as the canal traverses it¿s course and sometimes with certain variations. Identification of the detailed anatomy of the inferior alveolar canal with its content (inferior alveolar nerve, inferior alveolar artery and inferior alveolar vein) including the position, course and morphology is extremely important for management of various surgical procedures including dental implant placement, third molar surgery, dental anesthesia, mandibular osteotomy, bone harvesting procedure from the ramus and body of mandible, bone plating in angle and body region of mandible or any other surgical procedure involving the mandible.
