Differences between male and female mandibles;

Men usually have a square, stronger and larger mandible than women. Spiritual prominence is more obvious in men, but it can be visualized and palpated in women. In rare cases, bilateral inferior alveolar nerves may appear. In this case, there is a second mandibular foramen, which is in a poor position.
