Abstract :In this study, Hemshin sheep of both sexes were examined on mandible. The topographic and morphometric structure of the mental foramen was examined. In this study, a total of 15 adult Hemshin sheep mandible of both sexes of different age and body weight were used. Materials were obtained from the municipal slaughterhouse of Ardanuç district of Artvin province. Mandible were separated from the head and skin, muscle and ligaments were cleaned and allowed to dry by standard technique. In the light of the literature, various measurements were made from the mandible using an electronic caliper. Shape in Hamsin sheep. the mentale was round and oval. There was no difference between the bilateral sides of the mandible. FR. the mentale was quite deep. The distance of the foramen mentale from the ventral edge of the mandible was 0.69 ± 0.13 cm in the sheep sheep. 1. Premolar teeth with. The distance between the mentale was 1.98 ± 0.21 cm. Hams for sheep. The distance between the mental and lateral incisive teeth was 2.40 ± 0.37 cm. In the sheep sheep, the caudal edge of the mandible of the ramus with for. the distance between the mentale was measured as 13.49 ± 1.35 cm.
