Objective: To investigate the relationship between anxiety and hemodynamic changes in patients who have undergone impacted third molar surgery under local anaesthesia.
Study Design: Observational clinical study.
Place And Duration Of Study: Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey, from January 2018 to December 2019.
Methodology: Normotensive patients aged over 18 years, not using antidepressant medicine and ASA I included. A total of 83 patients were monitored and operated on for impacted third molar surgery. Blood pressure, pulse, and oxygen saturation values of the patients were noted at eight different stages during the surgery. Only the mesioangular impacted lower third molars of the patients were removed by a surgical operation. STAI forms were given before the operation.
Results: There is a significant difference between values of blood pressure, pulse, and oxygen saturation and gender (p<0.05). However, there was found to be an increased blood pressure in male patients while an increase in pulse and oxygen saturation was observed in female patients (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Male patients were more concerned than female patients by having higher blood pressure which may cause longer postoperative bleeding.
Key Words: Anxiety, Impacted third molars, Dental surgery, Hemodynamic changes.

Background: The current study attempts to assess the impact of third molar impaction on external root resorption (ERR) of the adjacent second molars. We aimed to determine the prevalence, severity, and associated factors with ERR in a sample of panoramic radiographs.
Material And Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out at teaching hospital.
Odontogenic cutaneous fistulas are abnormal connections between the oral cavity and skin, often mistaken for skin infections. They typically result from dental infections but may also arise from salivary gland issues, tumors, or congenital anomalies. Accurate diagnosis is essential to prevent complications like infection, osteomyelitis, and discomfort.

Background: A broken bur retained in the lower jaw is an uncommon complication that occurs during the extraction of the impacted mandibular third molar. The purpose of this retrospective study was to investigate the clinical characteristics of the broken burs and review our experience with the removal of the broken burs in these cases.
Methods: All patients, who suffered the broken bur remained in the lower jaw due to the extraction of the impacted mandibular third molar and presented to our hospital from July 2019 to July 2024, were included in this retrospective study.

Introduction: This is a double clinical trial conducted to study the patient satisfaction and comfort during and after surgical removal of impacted mandibular 3rd molar using Piezo electric tips.
Material And Methods: Two groups of 25 each [14 (56 %) males and 11 (44 %) females] and [18 (72 % males and 07 (28 %) females] represented the Rotary and Piezo groups respectively with bilateral impactions. one side of the patient is operated by piezo and the other side by rotary instrument after a gap of 2-3 week between the procedures.

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze changes in anxiety and comfort levels at each perioperative stage during third molar extraction under single-agent intravenous midazolam sedation, and to clarify how these conditions at each perioperative stage affect postoperative satisfaction.
Patients And Method: 115 who requested extraction of 1 ~ 4 third molars under single-agent intravenous midazolam sedation were targeted. These patients were administered a questionnaire survey one week after surgery.
