Özet
Background: The mandible is a very important bone for forensic medicine, anthropology, anatomy and odontology sciences. This bone has many functions such as speaking, chewing and swallowing. This study was carried out to examine the relationship between morphometric parameters ob-tained from the head of the mandible and other parameters of the mandible.Materials and Methods: In our study, 45 dry mandible bones were used. These bones were photo-graphed and measured in the Image J program. These measurements were the distance of the head of the mandible to mental foramen (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to angle of the mandible (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to gnathion (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to coronoid process (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to the mandibular notch (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to alveolar juga (right, left) and the distance between right and left head of the mandible.Results: While no difference was found in terms of direction in dry mandibles with correlation anal-ysis (p>0.05), a high significant correlation was found in 18 parameters (p≤0.05).Conclusions: In our study, correlations were found between parameters obtained from the head of the mandible and other parameters of the mandible.
