Popis:	ntroduction Mental Foramen is a small foramen situated in anterolateral aspect of the body of the mandible. Normally, Mental Foramen is located below the interval between the premolars [1]. It transmits mental nerve, artery and vein. Mental nerve is a branch of inferior alveolar nerve which supplies sensation to lower lip and the labial mucosa and lower canines and premolars. The most useful injection for anaesthetizing the mandibular teeth is the inferior alveolar nerve block [2]. To anaesthetize the anterior teeth, including the premolars and canines, it is possible to avoid giving inferior alveolar nerve block by injecting anesthetic solution adjacent to the Mental Foramen.
