The Effects of Relationship Between the Mixed Typed of Lingula and Coronoid Process of the Mandible

ABSTRACT Introduction: This study aimed to identify the variational types of lingula (LM) and coronoid process of the mandible (CPM) in order to determine their relationship and its effect on ethnicity and surgery. Methods: A total of 100 Turkish dry mandibles were measured bilaterally to determine the LM and CPM types. Two-way mixed ANOVA test was used to analyze the relationship between LM and PCM types on both sides, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical variables. Results: The occurrence of Type 4 CPM was 5.5% and type 5 LM was 1.5%. There was a significant difference between the types of LM and CPM (X2= 48.02, p
