1. Introduction
The inferior alveolar nerve, together with the lingual nerve, are the
terminal branches of the posterior trunk of the mandibular nerve, which
constitutes the third branch of the fth cranial nerve (trigeminal nerve).
The inferior alveolar nerve is purely sensory, providing sensitivity through
its branches to all lower teeth, adjacent bone tissue, the vestibular gingiva,
and soft tissues of the mental area (1,2,3).
Injury to the inferior alveolar nerve has a prevalence ranging
from 0.53 to 8.4% (4). Considering the importance of understanding the
course and branches of this nerve in preventing injury in various dental
and maxillofacial procedures, it is therefore pertinent to conduct this
literature review to analyze the most relevant aspects of the anatomy of
the inferior alveolar nerve and its main clinical implications.
2. Methodology
A narrative description was made regarding the anatomical
considerations of the internal dental nerve and its clinical implications.
The search strategy took into account criteria such as: relevance and
origin of the data, objective development of the content, and scope of
the research. Based on these parameters, 19 publications were selected,
including: review articles, original articles, textbooks, and clinical cases
related to the subject of study, in English and Spanish. The information
was collected from databases, platforms, and/or virtual libraries such as
SCOPUS, PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, as well as the human
anatomy book, between July 2024 and December 2024.

3. Development
3.1. Common anatomical presentation of the inferior alveolar nerve
The inferior alveolar nerve begins about 5 millimeters inferior to
the foramen ovale in the zygomatic fossa and descends anterior to the
dental artery, relating medially to the internal pterygoid muscle and the
interpterygoid aponeurosis . It is also related laterally to the ascending
branch of the mandible and the external pterygoid muscle as far as the
mandibular foramen (2,5,6).
It gives off the mylohyoid nerve before entering the inferior dental
canal or mandibular canal. It runs in the inferior dental canal, gives off
an internal branch, known as the incisive branch, and an external branch,
which emerges through the mental foramen, called the mental nerve ( 5,6).
In histological studies of the inferior dental nerve, a single trunk has
frequently been described that divides at the level of the molars into two
extensive nerves that extend in a spiral: the incisive nerve and the mental
nerve (7).
The mental nerve supplies branches to the skin and mucosa of the
lower lip, as well as the skin of the chin. The incisive nerve, meanwhile,
continues anteriorly through the mandibular canal and gives off branches
to the incisors, canine, and adjacent gingiva (2,5-7).
Most radiological and cadaveric ndings have reported that the
inferior alveolar nerve has a plexiform conguration, receiving bony
perforating branches from neurovascular bundles that emit adjacent
muscular structures. These accessory alveolar nerves are especially
visible in a lateral plane of each mandibular third molar and constitute a
relatively frequent cause of incomplete inhibition of local pain after the
application of anesthesia for inferior alveolar nerve block (2,6,8).

3.2. Anatomy of the mandibular canal
The mandibular canal, also known as the inferior dental canal or
inferior alveolar canal, begins with the mandibular foramen, located
on the inner surface of the mandible. The mandibular canal is located
anterior to a bony eminence called the lingula. The mandibular canal
passes through part of the body of the mandible and ends at each mental
foramen (6,9). (See Figure 1)

of the mandibular canal, from the mandibular foramen to the mental
foramen, between which the inferior alveolar nerve runs. Source: Image

521-528
3.3. Anatomical variations of the inferior alveolar nerve
The injuries of the alveolar nerve can be of great magnitude according
to the scale of the pain to such an extent that they can compromise the
quality of life of the patient in such a way that the adequate identication
and perception of the anatomy of the inferior dental nerve is essential for
any oral surgery intervention in the mandibular region. Therefore, it is
important to know the variations in terms of morphology, course and its
various relationships with the adjacent structures and the behavior of
the nerve in its intraosseous mandibular course in order to make a good
diagnosis, as well as to avoid injuries to the nerve in any dental procedure
(1-4).
The inferior dental nerve mainly runs, in cadaveric dissections,
with three presentations of anatomical variants: a) constituted by a single
trunk that is distributed throughout all the apices of the lower teeth; b)
fragmented into small branches; c) this type is initially divided into two
branches, an upper one responsible for innervating the second and third
molars, and a branch located apically that provides innervation to the
remaining lower teeth (10,11).
Nortj e & Farman (12) described four anatomical variants in relation
to the mandibular canal, according to the ndings detected in panoramic
radiographs: a) a single bilateral and simple canal; b) a single bilateral
canal, but with a radiologically intermittent path; c) several small-caliber
canals; d) mandibular canal not visible or with a double shape .
Among the most common variations we can nd the double or
bid inferior alveolar nerve, described in the study carried out by the
aforementioned authors, who indicate that up to 0.9% of individuals had
a bid nerve displayed in the x-rays taken, of which 20% were bilateral
and 13% were unilateral. Therefore, within the contextual study of the
mandibular area, these variations in the anatomy that can be detected
from the radiological level are considered together and that may be
subject to variations in age, taking into account that, the older the patient,

522-528
the mandibular canal through which the inferior alveolar nerve runs is
usually located in a higher position (12).
3.4. Clinical implications of the inferior alveolar nerve.
In dental practice there are numerous procedures performed
on the jaw, to mention a few examples: placement of dental implants,
extractions of third molars, teeth in the lower posterior sector, retained
teeth, endodontic treatments, peri-radicular surgeries, orthognathic
surgeries, osteogenic distractions, mandibular trauma, among others, and
despite the fact that the anatomy of the inferior alveolar nerve is known,
iatrogenic injuries of the inferior alveolar nerve are well documented (13).
Among the most frequent injuries of the inferior alveolar nerve due
to lack of knowledge of its anatomy are: lacerations, neurosensory injuries
such as neurapraxia, axonotmesis and neurotmesis that can occur due to
compression or stretching. In the rst, the nerve is anatomically intact,
but is unable to conduct the nerve impulse. This can be caused by any
type of external pressure (14) .
The Axonotmesis is a more severe injury because it involves axonal
degeneration. The main clinical implication is that it requires a longer
recovery period compared to neurapraxia. On the other hand, axonal
degeneration requires a longer recovery period. In neurotmesis, there
is a complete disruption of the axon and the myelin sheath. Complete
deterioration of nerve function is evident, in which case surgical
intervention is indicated (14).
Neurosensory lesions can cause chronic pain and complete
anesthesia of the areas innervated by the affected nerve. Chemical
damage may also occur from components used in endodontic treatments
such as formaldehyde, corticosteroids, eugenol, and sodium hypochlorite.
Thermal damage may occur due to bone overheating during procedures
(15).

523-528
The technique for procedures on third molars that are anatomically
related to the inferior alveolar nerve consists of anesthesia, incision,
osteotomy, odontosection, and extraction. An intentional coronectomy
has been proposed to allow mesial migration of the tooth and avoid injury
to the inferior alveolar nerve (4).
3.5. Damage to the inferior alveolar nerve
Damage to the inferior alveolar nerve is a signicant complication
in dentistry and oral surgery. The inferior alveolar nerve is responsible
for sensation in the jaw, lower teeth, and lip, so injury to it can result in
partial or complete loss of sensation in these areas, as well as neuropathic
pain. The most common causes of damage to the inferior alveolar nerve
include the extraction of third molars (wisdom teeth), dental implants,
orthognathic surgery, endodontic procedures, lateralization of the nerve,
and mandibular fractures. Inammatory diseases, such as osteomyelitis,
can also affect this nerve (16).
Symptoms of inferior alveolar nerve damage vary depending on
the severity of the injury and include paresthesia (tingling), anesthesia
(complete loss of sensation), and neuropathic pain (pain caused by the
nerve injury). Diagnosis of inferior alveolar nerve damage is made by a
combination of clinical evaluation and imaging tests, such as X-rays and
computed tomography (CT). Sensory testing is also useful in assessing the
degree of nerve injury (17).
Treatment for damage to the inferior alveolar nerve depends on the
severity of the injury. Options include: a) Conservative treatment: Pain
medication, anti-inammatory drugs, and regular follow-up to observe
the nerve’s natural recovery; b) Surgical interventions: In severe cases,
procedures such as nerve decompression and microsurgery may be
considered to repair the nerve; c) Physical therapies: Electrical stimulation
and low-level laser therapy can aid in nerve regeneration and functional
recovery; d) Prognosis: The prognosis for recovery from damage to the

DOI: https://doi.org/10.58995/redlic.rmic.v3.n2.a98
524-528
inferior alveolar nerve varies widely. Factors such as the patient’s age,
the extent of the damage, and the promptness of treatment inuence the
results. Most patients experience some improvement over time, although
some may have permanent after-effects (18).
Proper management of inferior alveolar nerve damage is crucial
to minimize complications and improve the patient’s quality of life.
A combination of accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment is
essential to optimize nerve recovery outcomes.
3.6. Recovery of the inferior alveolar nerve
The recovery of the inferior alveolar nerve is a topic of great
relevance in dentistry due to its involvement in the sensory function of
the mandible. Injuries to the inferior alveolar nerve can occur for various
reasons, including dental surgical procedures, mandibular fractures
and inammatory diseases. Some therapies have been proposed for the
recovery of the nerve, being some minimally invasive alternatives, such as
pharmacotherapy and other more invasive ones such as decompression
surgical interventions, each of these having its success rate (19).
Pharmacological therapies, including anti-inammatory and
neuroprotective agents, have been shown to be useful in reducing
inammation and promoting nerve regeneration. Surgical interventions,
such as nerve decompression and microsurgical repair, are used in cases of
severe injuries with varying results. On the other hand, physical therapies,
including electrical stimulation and low-level laser therapy, have shown
promising results in accelerating nerve recovery. Nerve recovery time can
vary, ranging from 6 months to 1 year, or even in cases where the damage is
already permanent. To verify the recovery of nerve sensitivity, a mapping
of the affected area is chosen (19).
It is concluded that recovery from damage to the inferior alveolar
nerve is a complex process dependent on multiple factors, and that a
combination of different therapeutic approaches can offer the best results.

An individualized evaluation of each case is recommended to determine
the most appropriate treatment.
5. Conclusions
The alveolar nerve is an anatomical structure of special importance
in various dental procedures, such as the placement of dental implants,
third molar extractions, mandibular posterior teeth, impacted teeth,
endodontic treatments, peri-radicular surgery, orthognathic surgery, as
well as distraction osteogenesis and mandibular trauma. Therefore, it is
essential to understand the typical anatomy of the inferior alveolar nerve
and its main anatomical variants.
