چکیده

Background: One of the anatomic structures in the mental interforaminal area is the mandibular incisive canal (MIC). Using various manipulation tools in the digital system may affect the visibility of MIC. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of inversion filter (IF) on the visibility of mandibular incisive canal in panoramic radiographs. Results: There was no significant differences between IF and conventional mode regarding visibility of MIC (P > 0.05). Conclusion: Although using IF caused improved visibility of MIC, the difference with conventional mode was not statistically different.
