Safety of coronectomy versus excision of wisdom teeth: A randomized controlled trial

Evaluation of lip sensory disturbance using somatosensory evoked magnetic fields

“…For example, previous reports have documented that the incident rate of IAN injury by third molar extraction varied from 2 to 17% (Renton et al, 2005;Hatano et al, 2009;Leung and Cheung, 2009;Cilasun et al, 2011;Long et al, 2012). However, precise evaluation and management of lip sensory abnormality is difficult because there is no quantitative testing battery.…”

Percepção dos cirurgiões bucomaxilofaciais do estado do Rio Grande do Sul sobre a técnica da coronectomia

“…A indicação desta técnica é justificada pelos riscos em potencial que uma extração pode gerar, tais como lesão ao nervo, infecção, dor e alveolite (RENTON, et al, 2005;HATANO et al, 2009;CHEUNG, 2009;CILASUN et al, 2011).…”

“…Tais critérios são indicativos de que há um alto risco de lesão ao nervo alveolar inferior. CHEUNG, 2009CHEUNG, , 2011CHEUNG, , 2012. A tomografia computadorizada é o método de diagnóstico de eleição; no entanto, é mais dispendioso e expõe o paciente a uma quantidade de radiação muito superior aos métodos supramencionados.…”

Notes on coronectomy

“…6 The patient must also be aware that there is a risk of early and late infection that will necessitate the removal of the roots, which in most cases occurs once control study and one retrospective study. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Three of the six articles investigate the fate of third molars deemed at high risk on a DPT radiograph that have been coronected. [7][8][9] The remaining three articles compare the techniques of coronectomy versus complete removal of the high risk third molar tooth.…”

“…[7][8][9] The remaining three articles compare the techniques of coronectomy versus complete removal of the high risk third molar tooth. 6,10,11 Interestingly, Dolanmaz et al 11 did not have a high risk control group for comparison as they deemed this unethical. All six articles suggested that the technique of coronectomy had merit and many practitioners regularly use the coronectomy approach in order to minimise IANIs.…”
