Reconstruction of lost, damaged or distorted mandibular bone presents a challenge from the functional side, as well as from the esthetic point of view. The aim of this study was to determinate potential differences between values of the basic linear moprhometric parameters (LMPs) obtained by direct and indirect manual measurement of the same humane mandibles, with accuracy testing of indirect measurement, which are routinely used in every-day clinical practice. The results are essential for defining of parametric model of the "standard mandible" and virtual modeling of the humane mandible in future researches as well as in clinical medicine.
