Abstract
Objectives: This current study was aimed to evaluate visibility of inferior dental canal at various regions of mandible on CBCT cross sectional films. Methods: This Cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Oral and Maxillofacial surgery de’Montmorency College of Dentistry/Punjab dental hospital Lahore, March 2023 to January 2024. CBCT cross sectional films of 36 cases (72 hemi mandibles) and 108 slices were evaluated by a qualified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and a certified Radiologist. The visibility of IDC was denoted by not visible, partially visible and completely visible. Results: The IDC was completely visible in 77.7% of the hemi-mandibles. Partially visible were noted in 20.37% of the hemi-mandibles and 1.85% of hemi mandibles IDC was noted not visible. The visibility of the IDC on distal areas of mandible was comparatively clearer than anterior part of mandible. Visibility of IDC was unaffected by presence or absence of teeth. Conclusion: CBCT provides a quite good source to visualize Inferior Dental Canal in majority of cases. However, IDC is difficult to visualize coming near the mental foramen. Overall CBCT films are satisfactory to visualize IDC in mandible.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
