Coronectomy - A viable alternative to prevent inferior alveolar nerve injury
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION Impacted third molars are associated with various pathologies like cysts, tumors, dental caries and pericoronitis. Therefore, total extraction is the appropriate treatment in majority of these cases. However, the surgical procedure is not free of complications. Pain, infection, dry socket, nerve injury and disorders along with their complications are witnessed.

Coronectomy of impacted mandibular third molars: A meta-analysis and systematic review of the literature
BACKGROUND Coronectomy is an alternative to complete removal of an impacted mandibular third molar. Most authors have recommended coronectomy to prevent damage to the inferior alveolar nerve during surgical extraction of lower third molars. The present study offers a systematic review and metaanalysis of the coronectomy technique. MATERIAL AND METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was...
متن کاملCoronectomy of third molar: a reduced risk technique for inferior alveolar nerve damage.
UNLABELLED Causing damage to the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) when extracting lower third molars is due to the intimate relationship between the nerve and the roots of the teeth. When the proximity radiologic markers between the IAN and the root of the third molars are present, the technique of coronectomy can be proposed as an alternative to extraction to minimize the risk of nerve injury, wi...
متن کاملCoronectomy as a surgical approach to impacted mandibular third molars: a systematic review
The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the surgical technique of coronectomy for third molars extraction in close proximity with the inferior alveolar nerve.A literature survey carried out through PubMed, SCOPUS and the Cochrane Library from inceptions to the last access in January 31, 2014, was performed to intercept randomised clinical trials, controll...
متن کاملA randomised controlled clinical trial to compare the incidence of injury to the inferior alveolar nerve as a result of coronectomy and removal of mandibular third molars.
We randomised 128 patients who required operations on mandibular third molars and who had radiological evidence of proximity of the third molar to the canal of the inferior alveolar nerve to one of two operations: extraction [n=102], and coronectomy [n=94]. Some roots were dislodged during intended coronectomy and were therefore removed, resulting in two subgroups (successful coronectomy n=58, ...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of present study was to assess the surgical management of impacted third molar with proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve and complications associated with coronectomy in a series of patients undergoing third molar surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS The position of the mandibular canal in relation to the mandibular third molar region and mandibular foramen in the front pa...
