The anterior maxillary area carries utmost importance as it is the aesthetic zone of the patient. Extraction of supernumerary teeth, enucleation of cysts, implant placement, and periodontal surgeries are some of the surgical procedures carried out in this area.1The incisive canal, also known as the nasopalatine canal is an important anatomic structure present in the anterior maxilla. It is a long slender passage present in the midline of the anterior maxilla that connects the palate to the floor of the nasal cavity. The canal continues in the oral cavity as a single incisive foramen posterior to the central incisor teeth and in the nasal cavity as foramina of Stenson’s which two in number are usually. 2 Through each of them passes the terminal branch of the descending palatine artery and the nasopalatine nerve to communicate with a posterior septal branch of the sphenopalatine artery and greater palatine nerve respectively. 3
