Piezoelectric surgery of impacted teeth


Book Description

The extraction of impacted dental elements is often referred to maxillofacial surgeons. However, it can be handled as routinely as any other type of extraction. Piezoelectric surgery of impacted teeth, which involves reproducible procedures using a step-by-step approach in all types of cases, also allows dentists who approach the extraction of impacted elements less frequently to carefully prepare for the procedure and perform it, thereby minimizing possible postsurgical issues for the patient, such as biological risks. Using the most innovative techniques, including the application of ultrasound in oral surgery and piezoelectric surgery, the author provides an indispensable tool to train and update dentists who intend to perform all types of extractions. Strengths •This manual presents a protocol—unique in its kind—for the extraction of impacted teeth with the use of a piezoelectric instrument. •This is the first manual to examine piezoelectric surgery of all impacted dental elements (not only wisdom teeth); in other volumes, the patient is treated only in individual chapters. •The clarity of the text is enhanced with images and surgical photographs that illustrate every step of the cases presented.

The Impacted Lower Wisdom Tooth


Book Description

There has been in the last 20 years a marked expansion in clinical research in all branches of surgery. Oral surgery journals now regularly contain highly sophisticated trials of drugs used in third molar surgery. Many of the fundamental problems of health, whether normal or pathological, have been tackled using the third molar wound as the experimental model. Intelligent young surgeons need to know and understand these new developments. They need to know how to carry out investigations for themselves and to have critical insight into those of others. There is too a move in the profession not to compartmentalize knowledge. Medical and dental education is notorious for having been a matter of hurdling over obstacles of about the same height and forgetting them as soon as they are passed. The mood now is towards making a synthesis. Increasingly it is expected that knowledge of the basic sciences should be brought into the clinic. In this new book the author considers many of the basic scientific aspects of wisdom teeth management, as well as operative procedures and aftercare.
