This document outlines the principles and steps of surgical tooth extraction. It describes the indications for surgical extraction, including teeth with unusual root morphology, hypercementosis, dilacerated roots, ankylosed roots, fused teeth, retained root tips, and deciduous molars that embrace permanent teeth. Contraindications include asymptomatic root tips and situations with risk of local complications. The steps described include flap creation, bone removal, tooth extraction using forceps or elevators, and wound closure. Specific techniques are described for single-rooted, multi-rooted, ankylosed, and retained root extraction cases. Postoperative antibiotic recommendations are also provided.
Introduction to surgical extraction methods, overview of procedure and applicability by practitioners.
Indications include unusual root morphology, hypercementosis, dilaceration, ankylosis, fused roots, broken tips, roots below gumline, and risk in deciduous molars.
Reasons to avoid surgical extraction include asymptomatic fractured roots, serious complication risks, need for extensive bone removal, and significant health issues.
General steps in surgical extraction: flap creation, bone removal, tooth extraction, and postoperative care.
Detailed approach for single-rooted teeth including flap creation, bone removal, and extraction methods.
Multi-rooted extraction steps: flap creation, sectioning, and suturing for proper healing.
Techniques for specific cases like deciduous molars and ankylosed teeth including flap creation and root sectioning.
Steps for extracting retained roots of single and two-rooted teeth, including flap creation and luxation.
Techniques for two-rooted teeth and using semilunar incisions with flap stabilization methods.
Recommended antibiotics for post-operative care and their dosage for effective management.
Final remarks and thanks presented at the conclusion of the presentation.
Surgical extraction isthe method by
which a tooth is removed from its
socket, after creating a flap and
removing part of the bone that
surrounds the tooth.
This technique is relatively simple and
can be done by general Practitioner if
the basic principles of the surgical
technique are followed.
3.
INDICATIONS
1. Teeth ofthe maxilla or mandible that present
unusual root morphology.
In such cases, a surgical extraction is performed
preventively, because their removal is impossible
with the simple technique without complications
arising (e.g., root breaking, fracture of alveolar
bone, etc.).
4.
2. Teeth withhypercementosis of root and
root tip, presenting large bulbous roots.
8. Deciduous molarswhose roots embrace
the crown of the subjacent premolar.
If the simple extraction technique were to
be attempted, there is a great risk of
concurrent luxation of the premolar.
11.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Asymptomatic fracturedroot tips, whose pulp
was vital, located deep in the socket.
when there is a risk of serious local
complications, such as the dislodging of a root
tip into the maxillary sinus or injury of the
inferior alveolar nerve, mental nerve, or
lingual nerve.
A large part of the alveolar process needs to
be removed.
There are serious health problems present.
IN GENERAL
1. Creationof a flap.
2. Removal of bone and exposure of an
adequate part of the root.
3. Extraction of the tooth or root with elevators
or forceps.
4. Postoperative care of wound and suturing.

A.single-rooted tooth
AnL-shaped incision is
made and the flap is reflected.
The buccal plate covering the
surface of the root is removed,
the tooth is extracted
using forceps
1. Extraction 0f Tooth With
Hypercimintosis at the root tip
15.
B.Multi-rooted teeth
• Theenvelope flap is
reflected, part of the buccal
plate is removed,
• Extraction of the mesial
portion of the tooth, which
includes the crown and root
• and the tooth is sectioned
buccolingually at the crown
as far as the intraradicular
bone
16.
• Extraction ofthe distal portion of
the tooth using forceps after
creating a pathway for removal
• Suturing of the flap using
interrupted sutures
• Widening of the alveolus
with a round bur.
17.
2. Extraction ofDeciduous
Molar that Embraces
Crown of Permanent
Tooth.
• Envelope flap created and
bone removed as far as the
root bifurcation.
• Roots of the molar sectioned with a
perpendicular groove on the crown,
which extends as far as the
intraradicular bone.
18.
• Removal ofthe mesial portion
of the tooth, which includes the
crown and root.
• Suturing of the flap with
interrupted sutures.
• Removal of the distal
portion of the tooth, which
includes the crown and
root, using forceps.

which extends from
the lateral incisor as far as the
distal aspect of the maxillary
first premolar.
Use of a chisel to remove the
tooth, together with the ankylosed
portion of the labial plate.

• Stabilization ofthe flap in its initial position
with placement of the first suture at the
center of the semilunar incision.
