ABSTRACT
The lateralization of the inferior alveolar nerve, or LIAN procedure, may be a surgical consideration for implant-prosthetic rehabilitation in the edentulous mandibular posterior region. This technique can be advantageous in that it does not require a donor site and allows for the immediate placement of an implant, potentially leading to reduced morbidity, healing time, and costs. Although such risks as altered sensory nerve function and weakening of the mandibular body are associated with the LIAN procedure, it is a viable alternative to various regenerative techniques to rehabilitate a patient with an implant-supported fixed prosthesis.
