Autotransplantation is the surgical transposition of a tooth from its original site to another, replacing a lost or a compromised tooth by another tooth, usually the third molar in the same individual. This technique is considered a viable method due to its high success rate, well-grounded treatment option, provided the case selection and the procedure followed is within the acceptable limits. Autotransplantation is considered as an alternative approach of oral rehabilitations in a conservative manner mainly in young patients with compromised financial conditions to perform a high cost treatment. It is a fast way to recover function and aesthetic properties without interfering with the orofacial growth. This report describes a successful 4-year follow-up of a case of immediately performed mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) pulpotomy in autotransplantated mandibular left immature third molar to replace the mandibular left first molar that was extracted due to extensive carious lesion.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of panoramic radiography in impacted mandibular third molars on deep learning models developed with findings obtained with cone beam computed tomography.
Oral Radiol

Department of Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Ataturk University, Erzurum, 25240, Turkey.
Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the contact relationship and position of impacted mandibular third molar teeth (IMM) with the mandibular canal (MC) in panoramic radiography (PR) images using deep learning (DL) models trained with the help of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and DL to compare the performances of the architectures.
Methods: In this study, a total of 546 IMMs from 290 patients with CBCT and PR images were included. The performances of SqueezeNet, GoogLeNet, and Inception-v3 architectures in solving four problems on two different regions of interest (RoI) were evaluated.
Piezosurgery in Third Molar Extractions: A Systematic Review.

: The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the clinical efficacy, benefits, and limitations of piezosurgery in tooth extractions compared to conventional methods. Piezosurgery has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative, promoting better preservation of soft tissues and bone structures. Understanding its impact on postoperative outcomes such as pain, swelling, trismus, and bone healing is critical for its application in oral surgery; We restricted our search to English-language articles published between 1 January 2004 and 28 August 2024, in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science.

Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai 50200, Thailand.
Background: Anesthetic irrigation is an effective treatment for postoperative pain suppression in patients after molar extraction, but exerts a short period of extraction. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of lidocaine with epinephrine irrigation on acute pain relief in healthy volunteers with inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) injection for the surgical removal of mesioangular (MA)-impacted third molars.
Methods: A total of 28 patients (56 samples) with bilateral MA-impacted third molars were recruited.
Minimizing Oxidative Stress in Oral Surgery: A Comparative Study of Laser-Assisted and Conventional Third Molar Extractions.

This study aims to compare the effects of conventional surgical techniques and laser-assisted methods on salivary oxidative stress biomarkers following third molar extraction, in order to evaluate the potential benefits of laser surgery in reducing oxidative stress and promoting faster recovery. A total of 154 patients, aged 16-30, undergoing third molar extractions were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups: conventional surgery ( = 75) and laser-assisted surgery ( = 79).

: Impacted third molar extraction with a scalpel and rotary instruments is one of the most traumatic surgeries in dentistry. Therefore, it is necessary to discover less traumatic methods and instruments to reduce the risk of postoperative complications. : This study is reported in accordance with the CONSORT guidelines.
