Clinical Research Progress on Extraction Techniques and Methods for Impacted Lower Third Molars
Journal: Journal of Clinical Medicine Research DOI: 10.32629/jcmr.v6i1.3670
Abstract
With the evolution of humans, as well as changes in diet and living conditions, impacted lower third molars (ILTM) have become increasingly common. The presence of ILTM can bring many potential risks to the human body, such as deep distal periodontal pockets, osteomyelitis, and other conditions that affect the patient’s health and quality of life. Therefore, early extraction treatment is necessary for ILTM patients to reduce these adverse effects. However, due to the special positioning of the molar, the surgical difficulty is high, the risks are greater, and complications are more frequent, which must be given due attention. Thus, there is a continuous need to explore new extraction techniques and methods to promote bone tissue healing. In light of this, the author summarizes the extraction techniques and methods for impacted lower third molars as studied by various scholars in recent years and provides the following review.
