Spatial Relationship between Mandibular Third Molars and Inferior Alveolar Nerve using a Volume Rendering Software
Authors
Abstract:
Precise localization of the third molars in relation to the inferior alveolar nerve canal is critical from a clinical point of view and strongly affects the surgical treatment outcome. Recently, by using three-dimensional modeling software, the relationship of third molar root apices and inferior alveolar nerve canal can be better understood. In this study, the spatial relationship of two surgical sites of 19 impacted third molars with close relationship to the inferior alveolar nerve canal is described by using imaging data from a cone beam computed tomography system. This study aimed to investigate the ability of three-dimensional modeling of tooth-nerve relationship using the data imported to Amira 5.2.2 imaging software

BACKGROUND Before extracting impacted lower third molars, dentists must first identify the spatial relationship between the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) and an impacted lower third molar to prevent nerve injury from the extraction. Nevertheless, the current method for describing the spatial relationship between the IAN and an impacted lower third molar is deficient. Therefore, the objectives o...

PURPOSE The aim of this review was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of panoramic radiographic markers in the detection of the relationship between the mandibular canal and third molar roots. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search of electronic databases, Cochrane Oral Health Group's Trials Register, National Research Register, conference proceedings, and abstracts was performed to iden...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of Inferior Alveolar Nerve (IAN) damage after surgical removal of lower third molars, to identify the cause and to construct a predictive model to assess the risk of IAN injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were selected from the out patient department after proper clinical and radiological evaluation of mandibular third molar...

INTRODUCTION Iatrogenic damage to Inferior Alveolar Nerve (IAN) is a significant risk factor following prophylactic or therapeutic removal of impacted mandibular third molar. The risk to IAN injury increases many fold, when the third molar root overlaps the nerve canal as identified by the radiographic imaging. Various methods like orthodontic assisted extraction, staged removal of tooth or cor...
