“…Delayed intervention may increase the risk of infection, injury to the vital carotid sheath and cranial nerves in the posterior compartment of the parapharyngeal space, migration of the tooth to deeper spaces and inducing infection of the adjacent fascial spaces even the deep cervical spaces [7,8]. The importance of prompt and appropriate management of the displaced tooth has also been emphasized in the reported cases [7][8][9][10]. mandibular was overlapped in the PNA images.…”

“…Conventional PAN radiographs could not determine the precise location of the displaced tooth and the relation between the tooth and the adjacent anatomical structures, whereas computed tomography (CT) scans could, especially the CBCT that could reconstruct the 3D images with lower x-ray dose than the conventional CT [6]. The necessity of using advanced imaging techniques to locate a displaced tooth and its relation to the adjacent anatomic structures has also been particularly pointed out, but the CBCT has not been used in the few reported cases [7][8][9][10].…”

“…The majority of case reports are for the displacement of lower wisdom teeth. 1 General dental practitioners extracting lower molar teeth should evaluate the degree of impaction, position of the roots, distal inclination, bone density and if appropriate surgical access should be planned.…”

“…Mandibular molar teeth, especially third molars, may be pushed into the sublingual space, submandibular space, pterygomandibular space 1 and cervical spaces in the neck. Open surgical techniques, application of correct force and placement of lingual retractors may help minimise this particular complication.…”

“…[12][13][14] Otros autores señalan que existen múltiples factores predisponentes que no se consideran, como: la abertura bucal, la edad del paciente, la forma facial, el uso de aparatología bucal, etc. 15 Al examen clínico, los pacientes pueden presentar disminución en la abertura bucal, edema, trismo o molestias al deglutir. 1,3,8,12 Para obtener la ubicación exacta de la pieza dentaria desplazada las radiografías periapicales, panorámicas y laterales como exámenes complementarios para este tipo de casos son inadecuados porque nos muestran imágenes en dos dimensiones.…”
