Mandibular canal or inferior alveolar canal is an important anatomical landmark in mandible which contains neurovascular bundles. Mandibular canal is considered as reference anatomical landmark in maxillofacial surgeries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the course and visibility of the mandibular canal in Darbhanga (Bihar) population on digital panoramic radiographs, and the objective was to assess the normal variation of mandibular canal on panoramic radiographs Material and Methods: A total of 500 panoramic radiographs were selected from the archives of our department as soft copies. The course of mandibular canal was evaluated on panoramic radiographs. The collected data were subsequently processed and analyzed using SPSS statistical package version 17. Results: We found that elliptic curve is most common curve. Visibility of mandibular canal is more in the third molar region compared to first molar region. Conclusion: In the present study, most common curve was elliptic curve (64.8%) followed by linear curve (22.2%). Visibility of mandibular canal in third molar region was 98.1%. In both gender, elliptic curve was most common curve.
