For mandibular denture impression, the muscle determining the form of the lingual flange in the molar region is?

Masseter
Mylohyoid
Medial pterygoid
Lateral pterygoid

The correct answer is: Mylohyoid

The mylohyoid muscle is located in the floor of the mouth and plays a crucial role in determining the form of the lingual flange in the molar region for a mandibular denture impression. The other muscles listed are not directly involved in creating the form of the lingual flange and therefore would not be the most suitable option for this question.
