View clinical trials related to Tooth, Impacted.
Filter by:Acute toothache is a problem that often occurs in the oral cavity. Toothache can be caused by an impacted tooth, in which the tooth cannot or will not erupt into its normal position. The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMFS) states that 9 out of 10 people have at least one impacted tooth, and impacted mandibular third molars have the greatest prevalence. Laser acupuncture is an acupuncture modality that has the benefit of reducing pain after third molar extraction. The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the group that received a combination of laser acupuncture and standard medication compared to the group that received the combination of sham laser acupuncture and standard medication alone, in management of post-mandibular odontectomy patients. The main objective of this study is to analyze the combination of laser acupuncture and medication significantly improving the patient's pain intensity, interincisal distance and post-odontectomy swelling compared to the combination group of sham laser acupuncture and medication.
An Evaluation of the Effect of Using Irrigations at Different Temperatures on Pain, Edema, and Trismus During the Extraction of Bilateral Impacted Mandibular Third Molars: A Randomized Split-Mouth Clinical Trial
Distal surfaces of second molars adjacent to wisdom teeth are always at risk for caries and external root resorption. The incidence of caries is high, especially in partially impacted third molars in mesioangular and horizontal positions. In this study, investigators aimed to examine the caries correlation in the distal second molar with the age, gender, side and DMFT scores of the participants.
This is a study about the dynamics and effects of different types of blocks (intraoral conduction anesthesia of the alveolar nerve and extraoral US block of the mandibular nerve) for extraction of lower third molars.
This research assesses removal of mandibular third molars by the lingual split technique with using Walter's lingual retractor for retracting lingual flap, and evaluates the lingual nerve injury that may result after applying this technique. The research sample included 20 patients and their age under 25 years where the grain is clear. The lingual nerve is assessed by sensory neurological tests on a graphic map that divides the tongue into sextants.
Preoperative radiograph will be taken to assess the type of impaction either mesioangular, horizontal, distoangular and check mouth opening. Two groups involve in my study. After taking consent from all patients in first group is control group open extraction of impacted mandibular third molar prepared concentrated growth factor placed in fresh socket closure done with silk 3.0. In second case group open extraction of impacted mandibular third molar is closure with silk 3.0 without placement of concentrated growth factor. Bone density will assessed using cone beam computed tomography 3 month and 6month postoperatively.
Many factors cause third molars to stay impacted in the jaws, hence the extraction of impacted wisdom teeth occurs often in dental clinics. Pain, trismus, and edema are typical postoperative complications following third molar surgery. Various strategies have been developed to prevent or reduce these postoperative complications, Among these is the use of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), which demonstrates numerous benefits in lowering pain, trismus, and edema by managing inflammation. The precise biological mechanism of action remains unknown. There seems to be evidence that it may have neuro-pharmacological impacts on the production, metabolism, and release of a number of biological compounds, the other option is use of ozone which has antimicrobial effectiveness (viricidal, bactericidal, and fungicidal). Additional well-known advantages include immunological modulatory and stimulating actions, including anti-inflammatory, biosynthetic, anti-hypoxic, and bioenergetic characteristics. Ozone can interact with blood components in the right amounts to positively impact oxygen metabolism and cell energy while also triggering antioxidant defense mechanisms
The first choice therapy in case of palatally impacted canines is their exposure and orthodontic eruption to improve facial esthetics and prevent pathologies associated with impacted teeth and Temporomandibular Joint Disorders. Current solutions in digital dentistry allow the registration of three dimensional imaging datasets such as cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and digital impression of the dentition and soft tissues obtained via intraoral scanning using orthodontic planning software. This allows the surgeon to visualize the position of the impacted canine prior to surgery and to design and manufacture a surgical guide to aid in the localization of the impacted tooth during surgery. The aim of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the feasibility of surgical exposure of palatally impacted upper canines with open-eruption technique using a surgical template. The secondary purpose of this study is to compare this method with the conventional free-hand surgical exposure. Patients included in this study are randomly assigned to two study groups. In Group 1 surgical exposure for open eruption of palatally impacted canines is performed following virtual planning using a surgical template. In Group 2 surgical exposure for open-eruption of palatally impacted canines is carried out using the conventional free-hand method. We hypothesize that guided exposure of the impacted canines will be as successful as the conventional method with shorter surgical intervention and higher associated costs.
The time required for orthodontic traction of impacted canines after surgical exposure is a particularly troubling clinical problem because it prolongs the orthodontic treatment duration. During traction process, several complications could result in alveolar bone loss, root resorption of the adjacent teeth, ankylosis, discoloration, loss or vitality and gingival recession. Accordingly, and due to the lack of studies concerned with accelerating the traction movement of the impacted canines, we conducted this study to evaluate the effectiveness of some surgical interventions (corticotomy and Piezocision) in increasing the rate of orthodontic traction movement. We also aimed to evaluate dentoalveolar changes associated with the use of such accelerating procedures compared with the conventional traction method.
Surgical extraction of impacted wisdom teeth creates a high level of anxiety on patients. Anxiety in patients can affect the difficulty of tooth extraction, prolong the duration of surgery and increase post-operative pain. With the increasing internet usage in recent years; patients can access different information about surgical procedures by watching videos on various social media platforms in an uncontrolled manner. In the literature, the effects of impacted tooth extraction videos, which are watched by physicians before the operation, on anxiety have been examined. However, studies on the evaluation of the effect of the surgery videos watched by the patients before the surgery on their own will on anxiety and pain perception have been limited.
