“…The injury of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) and the lingual nerve (LN) are typical risks and most frequent severe complications in the lower third molar (M3) removal; likewise, M3 extraction is the most frequent reason for IAN and LN injury [8][9][10][11]. The incidence reported in the literature is ranging from 0.35% [12] to 8% [13] for temporary and from 0% [14,15] to 1% [16] for permanent IAN injury and from 0% [17] to 11% [18] for temporary and from 0% [15,19] to 1.1% [20] for permanent LN injury [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32].…”

“…Despite the belief of some authors that 3D diagnostic is able to reduce operating time and therefore postoperative complications, such as neurosensory disturbances, swelling, or alveolitis [52,53], there is only low-level scientific evidence on the actual usefulness of different preoperative imaging techniques for n number of cases, t temporary, p permanent the operative removal of wisdom teeth [49,54]. In contrary, one study found no significant differences for postoperative complications between 3D and 2D presurgical diagnostics [11]. In intraoral radiography, the parallax technique is able to determine a lingual or buccal position of the IAN in relation to M3 [55,56], as well as the PA cephalomatric radiography [57].…”

“…Orthopantomography (OPT) is indispensable for this purpose, but in some situations, it may prove inadequate, in which case computed tomography (CT) may be warranted [1,4,8,[11][12][13][14]. The advisability of prescribing CT for lower third-molar extraction is controversial, however, because the dose-benefit and cost-benefit ratios might be unfavourable [15,16].…”

“…I maggiori fattori di rischio per le lesioni del NAI durante l'estrazione del terzo molare includono: la profondità d'inclusione del dente, la sua angolazione, l'uso di osteotomia o odontotomia, l'età del paziente, e l'osservazione di particolari segni radiografici [4, 5]. Quest'ultimo fattore di rischio dimostra l'importanza di accertare il rapporto anatomico tra le radici del dente del giudizio e il canale mandibolare [6][7][8][9][10].A tale scopo l'ortopantomografia (OPT) è indispensabile, ma in alcune situazioni in cui risulta inadeguata è consigliato eseguire la tomografia computerizzata (TC) [1, 4, 8,[11][12][13][14]. L'appropriatezza della prescrizione della TC ai fini dell'estrazione del terzo molare inferiore può essere discutibile, poiché i rapporti dose/beneficio e costo/ beneficio potrebbero non essere favorevoli [15, 16].…”
