This study was undertaken to determine the correlation between the presence of nutrient canals in the mandibular anterior region and sex, age, edentulous mandible, periodontal disease, and high blood pressure. The periapical roentgenograms taken from the mandibular anterior region of 1040 patients were examined. According to the data obtained from the present study, the occurrence of nutrient canals in the mandibular anterior region seemed related to age, edentulous mandible, periodontal problems, and high blood pressure. However, no relation to sex was found.
