“…In retrospect, most infected teeth could probably have been repulsed in the standing horse. Similarly, Bienert et al (2008) found post extraction complications in 53% of repulsed vs. 18% of orally extracted cheek teeth.…”

“…Oral extraction should always be the first method of choice, as several studies have proven the lowest complication rates for this approach ( 2 , 6 , 7 , 10 ). However, pre-existing or exodontia-related tooth fractures can make oral extraction impossible ( 11 ) and necessitate another extraction method such as minimally invasive lateral buccotomy, intraoral sectioning with a surgical bur or repulsion.…”

The objectives of this retrospective study were to describe the prevalence and characteristics of post-operative complications that occur following equine mandibular cheek tooth extractions and to assess for possible associated risk factors. Clinically significant post-extraction complications necessitating repeat referral developed following 20/302 (6.6%) mandibular cheek tooth extractions. Horses developing complications were younger than the overall population having mandibular cheek teeth extractions and the most commonly affected teeth were the Triadan 07 s and 09 s. Alveolar sequestration was the most prevalent complication, occurring in 18/20 horses (90%), with the complete alveolus sequestering in some cases. Post-extraction mandibular fistula formation occurred in 5/20 cases (25%) and mandibular abscessation in 4/20 cases (20%). All cases were successfully treated, including sequestrectomy, and wound debridement with some cases taking up to 5 months for resolution. Anatomical features of the equine mandibular alveoli and bone appears to make them more prone to develop extensive sequestration compared to published complications on maxillary alveolar bone. This requires good pre-operative examination including diagnostic imaging to identify cases of higher risk and thorough risk disclosure toward horse owners as well as owners' compliance.

“…Oral extraction of CT (Dixon 1997; Tremaine 1997, 2004; Dixon et al . 2005) is the technique of choice and should always be attempted prior to dental repulsion, as the complication rates are much lower with the former procedure (Bienert et al . 2008; Dixon et al .…”

Summary Treatment of the different types of equine sinusitis, in particular those of chronic (>2 months' duration) sinusitis can be difficult, with many such cases not responding to more conservative measures such as rest, antibiotic therapy or sinus lavage. Such refractory cases require further clinical examinations and imaging as outlined in a companion article to achieve confirmation of the cause of the sinusitis. Many sinusitis cases will then require some form of surgical treatment that may include sinusotomy, dental extraction or intrasinus growth removal, that are increasingly being performed by less invasive techniques under standing sedation.
