Due to the impaction of the third molars, the oral and maxillofacial surgeons often extract the third molars by a surgical procedure. A planned surgical procedure is to be followed by the surgeons to minimize any complications related to the third molar extraction. The primary goal of this research was to review the literature related to complications after the third molar surgery. Data was extracted from the online databases like Medline and Pub Med Central, and tabulated using the pre-designed data extraction forms. Commonly the extractions are done by the general dentists using the forceps and elevator. In case of the tooth that is near a major nerve, with large or curved roots, in fusion with the jawbone or if it’s nearby a crown or fillings the Dento alveolar surgery is recommended. These complications can affect the quality of life of the patient. In present time the knowledge and awareness about oral health and its impact on the quality of life is understood and maintained. The patient should be made aware about all the possible complications before the surgery. Keywords: Third Molar Surgery, Dento Alveolar Surgery, Wisdom Tooth Surgery, Complications, impacted teeth.

Kröner1, Benedikt D. Spielberger1, Ekaterini Paschos4, Gregor Dückers5, Tim Niehues5, Ronny Hesse2† and Ellen D. Renner3*† Abstract Background: STAT3 hyper-IgE syndrome (STAT3-HIES) is a rare primary immunodeficiency that clinically overlaps with atopic dermatitis. In addition to eczema, elevated serum-IgE, and recurrent infections, STAT3-HIES patients suffer from characteristic facies, midline defects, and retained primary teeth. To optimize dental management we assessed the development of dentition and the long-term outcomes of dental treatment in 13 molecularly defined STAT3-HIES patients using questionnaires, radiographs, and dental investigations. Results: Primary tooth eruption was unremarkable in all STAT3-HIES patients evaluated. Primary tooth exfoliation and permanent tooth eruption was delayed in 83% of patients due to unresorbed tooth roots. A complex orthodontic treatment was needed for one patient receiving delayed extraction of primary molars and canines. Permanent teeth erupted spontaneously in all patients receiving primary teeth extraction of retained primary teeth during average physiologic exfoliation time. Conclusions: The association of STAT3-HIES with retained primary teeth is important knowledge for dentists and physicians as timely extraction of retained primary teeth prevents dental complications. To enable spontaneous eruption of permanent teeth in children with STAT3-HIES, we recommend extracting retained primary incisors when the patient is not older than 9 years of age and retained primary canines and molars when the patient is not older than 13 years of age, after having confirmed the presence of the permanent successor teeth by radiograph.

  • Complications Following Surgery of Impacted Teeth and Their Management
    Chapter 1 Complications Following Surgery of Impacted Teeth and Their Management Çetin Kasapoğlu, Amila Brkić, Banu Gürkan-Köseoğlu and Hülya Koçak-Berberoğlu Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/53400 1. Introduction One of the most performed procedures in the specialty of oral and maxillofacial surgery is removal of impacted teeth, especially third molars. Impaction is defined as failure of teeth to erupt into the dental arch within the expected time [1,2]. The reasons for tooth impaction include several factors subdivided into a local and general factors such as position and size of adjacent teeth, dense overlying bone, excessive soft tissue or a genetic abnormality including abnormal eruption path, dental arch length and space in which to erupt [1-3]. Clinically and radiographically, there are two types of impactions namely complete and partial. Complete impaction means that the tooth is covered by bone and mucosa and is prevented from erupting into a normal functional position; partial impaction means that the tooth is partially visible or in communication with oral cavity, but it has failed to erupt fully into a normal position [1]. The most common impacted teeeth are mandibular and maxillary third molars, followed by the maxillary canines and mandibular premolars. New data suggests that 72,2% of the world population has at least one impacted tooth (usually lower third molar) [3,4]. From the last 40 years, the incidence of impacted teeth has grown through different populations, due to living habits such as soft food diet and lower intensity of the use of the masticatory apparatus [3].

The third molar is said to be the most commonly impacted tooth in the oral cavity and accounts for 98% of all impactions and mandibular third molars are the most frequently impacted. Aim: The purpose of this study was to review 10 years pattern of presentation of mandibular the third molar impaction seen at the University College Hospital in Ibadan. Material and Methods: A total of 597 impacted third molar teeth were reviewed. The angulations of impacted third molar teeth according to Winter’s classifications were recorded as documented in the patient’s case note. The cause of extraction such as pericoronitis, caries, other pathology, and orthodontic reason and second molar pathology were noted and recorded for every patient. Distributions of obtained values were compared using the Pearson χ2 test. Results: The mean age of the subjects was 27.7 (range: 19-50); in a review of the 597 impacted third molar teeth, the most common angulation of impaction was mesioangular (320;53.6%) and pericoronitis (514;86.2%) was found to be the most common reason for disimpaction. Among 597 patients (244 males, 353 females), pericoronitis was more prevalent in females (101;30%).

  • Cross-Sectional Imaging of Third Molar–Related Abnormalities
    Published September 10, 2020 as 10.3174/ajnr.A6747 REVIEW ARTICLE Cross-Sectional Imaging of Third Molar–Related Abnormalities R.M. Loureiro, D.V. Sumi, H.L.V.C. Tames, S.P.P. Ribeiro, C.R. Soares, R.L.E. Gomes, and M.M. Daniel ABSTRACT SUMMARY: Third molars may be associated with a wide range of pathologic conditions, including mechanical, inflammatory, infectious, cystic, neoplastic, and iatrogenic. Diagnosis of third molar–related conditions can be challenging for radiologists who lack experience in dental imaging. Appropriate imaging evaluation can help practicing radiologists arrive at correct diagnoses, thus improving patient care. This review discusses the imaging findings of various conditions related to third molars, highlighting relevant anatomy and cross-sectional imaging techniques. In addition, key imaging findings of complications of third molar extraction are presented.

Abstract: Dental injury to the second molar (SM) caused by the surgical extraction of the impacted third molar tends to be underestimated. The necessity of assessment of the impact of the removal of the wisdom tooth in the mandible on the second molar arose. The study group (n = 60) was the one with the second molar on the surgical side, and the control group (n = 60) was the one with the tooth on the opposite side of the alveolar arch. Before the surgery, the difficulty level was assessed according to the Pederson scale. The periodontal status of the SM was assessed by probing depth (PD), gingival index (GI), tooth mobility (TM) examination by the percussion method and resonance frequency. Measurements were taken before and after the surgery, 7 days and 8 weeks after the Citation: Aniko-Włodarczyk, M.; surgery.

Aim of the Study: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of impacted wis- dom associated with pathologies in relation to angulation of impaction in an adult Saudi population in Mecca area, Materials and Methods: This is a cross sectional study in which records of 4000 patient’s panoramic radiographs between 2017 -2018 from OPG & CEPH X-Ray Department. Umm Al- Qura University-Dental College and Hospital were reviewed. Finally, 411 out of 4000 patient’s radiographs which showed impacted wisdom were selected. Data related to the type of impaction in both jaws and associated pathologies were then collected, tabulated and analyzed. Results: Panoramic radiographs of 4000 patients aged 25-60 years were examined. A total of 411 (10.27%) demonstrate the presence of at least one impacted third molar. The study demon- strates that the highest number of impactions related to mandibular arch followed by maxillary arch then the least common cases with impaction related to both jaws.
