Article Abstract
Background: This paper investigates the relationship betweendifferent types of impactions with postoperativeinflammatory tissue reaction.
Materials & Methods: Consecutive patients with only mandibular third molar impactions were included in our study. They were classified by winter's classification. The disimpactions were performed under local anaesthesia. Time for surgery was noted for each surgical procedure. Postoperative inflammatory complication in terms of pain, swelling and trismus were noted.
Results: 150 male patients in the age groupof 18-40 years were studied. Inflammatory tissue reactions were increasing with more operative time. Distoangular and Horizontal impactions were associated with more pain on first 3 days of surgery along with more swelling and trismus. Vertically impacted teeth were associated with least complications.
Conclusion: Post operative morbidity was increasing along with moreoperating time and increase in the depth of mandibular third molar impaction.

Hemangiomas in the head and neck region, especially those that may impact the airway, require special attention perioperatively because of the potential for difficulties with airway management and bleeding control. This case report describes the management of a 31-year-old male with a large hemangioma of the tongue and pharynx undergoing surgical extraction of mandibular third molars under intubated general anesthesia. Despite taking precautions and avoiding traumatizing the hemangioma while securing the airway, massive bleeding occurred during the surgical extractions, which prompted emergent transfer for angiographic embolization and a stay in the intensive care unit until extubation.
This study aimed to apply finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate the oral environment of a patient with an implant-supported overdenture prosthesis. A 3D mandibular model was created for a 45-year-old female patient from CT images, with mucosal thickness measured at 3 mm on average using ultrasonography. The overdenture prosthesis was scanned with an intraoral scanner and placed onto the 3D mandibular model.
The Aim Of The Study: To determine the type of electric current with the greatest diagnostic value used to study the electrical sensitivity of teeth in inferior alveolar nerve neuritis.
Materials And Methods: We examined 32 patients aged from 22 to 57 years, in whom neuritis of the inferior alveolar nerve developed due to traumatic removal of the lower third molar. There were 14 females and 18 males.
The correlation between anatomy features of impacted mandibular third molars (M3Ms) and prevalence of pericoronitis was only interpreted using univariate analysis. This study investigated this correlation using multivariable analysis to determine the relationship between pericoronitis prevalence and the M3Ms' anatomical features. This cross-sectional study recruited 245 patients with 338 impacted M3Ms.
Introduction: Impacted mandibular third molars are frequently encountered in dentistry. As extraction is often the treatment of choice, knowledge of the proximity and relationship of the inferior alveolar canal (IAC) with the tooth is essential. This study was designed to determine the course of the IAC in cases of impacted lower third molars.
