ABSTRACT:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Background:<\/strong> Inferior alveolar nerve block is mostly given during dental procedures. Inferior alveolar Nerve is the branch of posterior division of Mandibular Nerve.<\/p>\n

Method:<\/strong> A Cadaveric case study was performed in the dissection Hall of the anatomy department in 10 cadavers.<\/span>\u00a0Two unusual findings in infratemporal regions of two cadavers were observed unilaterally.<\/p>\n

Result & Discussion:<\/strong> The Inferior alveolar nerve was found to arise from dual roots, which joined after a certain distance to split again.<\/span>\u00a0In another case, it was communicating with other branches of mandibular nerve. Knowledge of such unusual observations are important for maxillofacial surgeons, dentists & Radiologists.<\/p>\n

Keywords:<\/strong> Inferior Alveolar Nerve, Mandibular Nerve, Nerve Compression Syndromes.<\/p>\n
