Aim: The aim of this study to evaluate the morphological investigation of differences in shape of coronoid process of adult human mandible. Material and methods: After receiving clearance from the protocol review committee and the institutional ethics committee, this prospective, randomised investigation was carried out in the Department of Anatomy. The coronoid processes of 50(100 sides) dry adult human mandibles were investigated, including 28(56 sides) men and 22(44 sides) females. Male and female bones were distinguished by observing typical morphological characteristics. Results: In the current research, the triangular form of the coronoid process was found in 50 mandibles, 67% of which were bilateral and 33% of which were unilateral. As a result, observation leads to the conclusion that the triangle form of is more typically bilateral. In the instance of unilateral surgery, 10 coronoid processes on the right side were triangular (corresponding side have 3 rounded shaped & 3 hook shaped coronoid process). It was the left side with four mandibles. It was round in 20 of the mandibles, with bilateral mandibles in 40% of the cases and unilateral mandibles in 60% of the cases. It is seen on three right and nine left sides of the mandible in unilateral occurrences. The remaining 30 mandibles were discovered to be hooked shaped, with 76.67% being bilateral and 23.33% being unilateral. 28 (56 sides) of the 50 (100 side) mandibles were male. Male mandibles were found to be triangular shaped in 9 (32.14%), rounded in 7 (25%), and hook shaped in 42.86%. While examining 22(44 sides) female mandibles, 13(59.10%) had triangular shapes, 3(13.64%) had rounded shapes, and 6(27.27%) had hook shapes. Conclusion: It was discovered via this investigation that the coronoid form most often seen in male mandibles is a hook, followed by a triangular and rounded coronoid. The most prevalent form for a woman's mandible is a triangular one, followed by a hook and a rounded one.
