Table 3.

Comparison of frequency of anterior loop of inferior alveolar nerve between different age groups in panoramic radiography and cone beam computed tomography

Group	Visibility	Age group						Total	Chi-square	P
Group	Visibility	20–35	%	36–50	%	51–65	%	Total	Chi-square	P
Right	CBCT	47	44	39	36	21	20	107	6.64	.03
Right	Panoramic	33	66	11	22	6	12	50	6.64	.03
Left	CBCT	49	43	40	35	26	23	115	12.09	.002
Left	Panoramic	36	72	9	18	5	1	50	12.09	.002

Since the P value is greater than .05, there is no statistical significant difference between both the imaging modalities while comparing the frequency of the loop with respect to age groups and sides.
