    Study Notes

    Impacted Tooth Radiography and Classification Summary

    • Preoperative dental procedures include the use of radiographs such as periapical, occlusal, and lateral films, as well as orthopantomogram for an overall view of the dentition and surrounding structures.
    • The Frank shift technique is used to localize the mandibular canal in relation to the apices of the lower third molar, while the Clark shift technique is used to determine the position of impacted cuspids.
    • Impacted teeth are classified based on their relation to the second molar, depth in the bone, Winter’s classification, and the position of the long axis in relation to the second molar.
    • Impacted maxillary third molars are classified based on the relative depth and position of the long axis in relation to the second molar, as well as their relation to the sinus.
    • Impacted maxillary canines are classified into five classes based on their location in the oral cavity.
    • Factors that may complicate the removal of impacted teeth include abnormal root curvature, hypercementosis, proximity to the mandibular canal, extreme bone density, and ankylosis.
    • Ankylosis occurs frequently after traumatic injury or periapical inflammation, making the use of a chisel ineffective for splitting ankylosed teeth.
    • Difficult access to the operative field may be due to a small orbicularis oris, inability to open the mouth wide enough due to trismus, or a large uncontrollable tongue.
