Abstract :
This study aimed to measure some clinically important landmarks useful for regional anesthesia in the mandibular regions of Mehraban sheep. The distance between the lateral ends of the alveolus of the incisor tooth to the mental foramen was 2.07±0.45 cm. The length and maximum height of the mandibles were 15.76±2.25 cm and 9.57±2.71 cm, respectively. The distance from caudal border of mandible to beneath of mandibular foramen was 1.74±0.33 cm, while the distance from the mandibular foramen to the base of the mandible and caudal border of mandible to the level of mandibular foramen were 4.14±0.47 cm and 1.35±0.29 cm, respectively and the length of diastema was measured 3.98±0.48 cm.
