Occurrence of Mandibular Tori in adults –A Case report
ABSTRACT Torus mandibularis is a nontender, bony outgrowth located on the lingual side of the mandible, in the canine or premolar region, above the attachment of the mylohyoid muscle 1. Most of the times tori were unnoticed up to adulthood or lifelong. Torus mandibularis is usually asymptomatic and...
