Exodontias (tooth extraction )
Exodontias - is a minor surgical procedure in
involving taking out of tooth from its socket with
the use of instruments.
Indication for extraction
There are many reasons for which both
deciduous and permanent teeth have to be
extracted. But dental caries and periodontal
pathology account for 85%- 90% of extraction.
Indications Of Extraction:
-Esthetics ;
Stained teeth,
excessively protruded teeth,mal-alligned.
-Cracked and fractured tooth ;Tooth in
fracture line,pain, Dilaceration
infection.
Indications Of Extraction:
Systemic Local
Contraindication for extraction
These are either local or systemic factors.
a) Local factors
Acute infection with an uncontrolled cellulites
Acute pericoronitis (mandibular third molar)
extraction of maxillary premolar and first molar in acute
sinusitis
tooth embedded in a malignant growth because it leaves
non healing wound
extraction of tooth from irradiated jaw. B/c osteo radio
necrosis since there is low vascularity
b) Systemic factor
uncontrolled diabetic mellitus
cardiac problems
e.g hypertension, coronary artery disease, ischemic
heart disease, valvular and septal defects.
Pregnancy - second trimester is safe.
Bleeding disorder
Patients on steroids therapy
Renal failure
Patients with toxic goiter- problem of thyroid crisis
Position of the operator
The operator stands at right side in front of
the patient for extraction of left maxillary and
mandibular teeth as well as for anterior
tooth .
For right mandibular tooth operator stands
on the right side and behind the patient.
Basic instruments used for exodontias
For simple extraction
-Dental forceps
-Elevators
For complex extraction
-Hand piece
-Diamond bur and the above.
General steps for tooth extraction
Detached the gum from the crown part of the
tooth using elevator
Put the beaks of the forceps below cemento-
enamel junction
Fix the forceps
Luxation ( dislocation of the tooth)
Apply traction
Extraction technique
• There are two types of procedures
• Intra -alveolar
• Trance –alveolar
Intra- alveolar(forceps technique)
• Using elevators and forceps
I) For maxillary teeth
a) Central and lateral incisors- slight labial and
palatal pressure with mesial rotation followed by
slight traction.
b)Canines- these are difficult to remove. Labial
pressure then palatal pressure with mesial
rotation followed by traction.
c) First premolar- buccal pressure and palatal
pressure and extraction to buccal side .no
rotation is to be used.
d) Second premolar- buccal and palatal pressure
with slight rotation.
e) First and second molar- buccal and palatal
rocking and buccal side removal.
f) Third molar- buccal pressure along with distal
and downward movement is used to luxate
the tooth out of the socket.
II) Mandibular teeth
a) Central and lateral incisors- labial and lingual
rocking and slight mesial and distal rotation
followed by removal to labial side.
b)Canine- labial pressure with mesial rotation and
vertical pull yield the desire result.
c) First and second premolar- buccal pressure with
slight mesio-distal rotation.
d)All mandibular molars- buccal and lingual rocking
with removal to buccal side.
Complications involved in extraction
Operative complication
a) Fracture of the tooth
b) Alveolar bone fracture
c) Maxillary tuberosity fracture
d) Mucosal tear
e) Oro- antral opening
f) Injury to soft tissue
g) Hemorrhage
h) Injuries to the adjoining teeth
Post operative complication
a)Post operative hemorrhage
b)Pain and swelling
c) Dry socket(alviolitis)
d)Osteomyelitis
e)bacterimia
