Oral Surgery, Extraction of Unerupted Teeth

Oral Surgery, Extraction of Unerupted Teeth

Extraction of unerupted teeth is a common procedure in dentistry, performed by both general dentists and dental specialists. The prevalence of impacted teeth follows a pattern opposite to the typical chronological eruption sequence, with the last erupting teeth being more commonly impacted due to insufficient arch space. However, not all unerupted teeth require extraction, and a comprehensive patient evaluation is crucial to determine the necessity for this intervention. Surgeons must be skilled in recognizing and managing complications that may arise during both the intraoperative and postoperative phases of the procedure. This activity provides a comprehensive review of the evaluation and treatment of unerupted teeth through extraction, emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary healthcare team in the evaluation and management of this condition.
