Figure 3

Postoperative cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan of a patient complaining of persistent numbness of the right side of the tongue two weeks after bilateral MTM surgery. Axial CBCT image reconstructions (A,B) visualize two possible iatrogenic defects of the lingual cortical bone: a spherical lesion at the level of the former crown and a linear defect distal to the level of the former cementoenamel junction of the MTM.
