BASIC PRINCIPLES OF EXODONTIA  MEDICINE EXTRACTION SURGERY PHYSICAL MECHANICS  PRINCIPLE #1 Know your pt PRESURGICAL MEDICAL ASSESSMENT  AGE, MEDICAL HISTORY AND MEDICATIONS - AGE quality of bone and systems. bone is more dense - WHAT CONDITIONS AND MEDICATIONS ? (BLOOD THINNERS?) also why are taking it the more medication - ANY CHANGES TO MEDICATIONS , ANY SURGERIES the more uncontrolled is - RECENT VISITS TO PHYSICIAN / ER / HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS - ANY RECENT LAB WORK - PHYSIOLOGICAL STATES THAT MAY LEAD US TO MODIFY OUR APPROACH IMPORTANT TO DETERMINE THE SEVERITY AND STABILITY OF THE MEDICAL CONDITION DO YOU NEED TO SPEAK TO PHYSICIAN ? CONCEPT OF OPTIMIZING THE PATIENT AS OPPOSED TO “GETTING A CLEARANCE” optimize better than clearance  WORK UP FOR - DIABETIC PATIENT NEEDING AN EXTRACTION ? - PATIENT HAS CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE ? - PATIENT WITH RECENT MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION  PRINCIPLE #2 PAIN AND ANXIETY CONTROL Local anesthesia Removal of tooth is associated with pain and anxiety Profound local anesthesia is the “key” Despite local anesthesia, discomfort from pressure placed on adjacent teeth, surrounding tissues and TMJ Inferior alveolar nerve block in mandible supplemented by buccal and /or lingual nerve block is important Infiltration anesthesia works well in maxilla Most common solution used Lidocaine 2% with 1:100000 epinephrine Others include Articaine 4% with 1:100000 epinephrine 3% Mepivicaine (no epinephrine) Bupivicaine 0.5% with 1:100000 epinephrine(long acting) Local anesthesia may be challenging in Teeth with acute symptoms / “hot tooth” (discuss options for anesthetizing “hot tooth”) Teeth in midline or where nerves cross  Principle 3 Focused oral examination Extra oral Exam Any obvious neck swelling / node enlargement / TMJ exam Evaluate mouth opening or presence of trismus Any extra oral sinus tracts / fistula / condition of overlying skin Intraoral Exam Tooth / teeth in question - mobility, pain? Large restorations / crowns or implants on adjacent teeth Any obvious pathology on clinical and radiographic exam IMAGING  INDICATIONS OF EXTRACTIONS PERIODONTAL CARIES DISEASE  INDICATIONS OF EXTRACTIONS TEETH ASSOCIATED WITH PATHOLOGY ORTHODONTIC REASONS - PREMOLARS \(MOST COMMON WRONG TEETH EXTRACTED! PATIENT IS BEING PLANNED FOR RADIOTHERAPY TO HEAD AND NECK REGION / BISPHOSPHONATE THERAPY - EXTRACT QUESTIONABLE TEETH?  What patient factors may make extractions difficult ? AGE - DENSER BONE SIGNIFICANT GAG REFLEX PATIENTS UNABLE TO COOPERATE - AGE / MEDICAL CONDITIONS  TOOTH FACTORS ENDODONTICALLY TREATED TEETH THERE IS MINIMAL PDL SPACE, THE ROOTS ARE CLOSE TO ADJACENT TEETH LONG, DIVERGENT ROOTS TOOTH IS ADJACENT TO A LARGE CROWN OR RESTORATION TEETH WITH MINIMAL CORONAL STRUCTURE SHORT CROWN-LONG ROOTS? TOOTH IS CLOSE TO VITAL STRUCTURES? IMPACTED TEETH CURVED, DILACERATED ROOTS, MORE THAN EXPECTED NUMBER OF ROOTS, HYPERCEMENTOSIS  ANESTHESIA FACTORS FAILURE TO ACHIEVE ANESTHESIA INFECTED / HOT TOOTH? LANDMARKS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO REACH - THINK EDENTULOUS PATIENTS WHEN LOCAL ANESTHESIA MAY NOT BE THE BEST OPTION EXTRACTIONS ARE MORE DIFFICULT THAN EXPECTED MULTIPLE EXTRACTIONS ARE REQUIRED PATIENT IS EXTREMELY ANXIOUS, UNABLE TO COOPERATE, MEDICAL NECESSITY  CONTRAINDICATIONS OF EXTRACTIONS SEVERE UNCONTROLLED METABOLIC DISEASE - DIABETES END STAGE RENAL/LIVER DISEASE? PREGNANCY - POSTPONE ELECTIVE EXTRACTIONS OTHERWISE 2ND TRIMESTER IS SAFE, IF PATIENT IS IN PAIN THEN EXTRACTIONS CAN BE DONE IN ANY TRIMESTER UNCONTROLLED LEUKEMIAS , LYMPHOMAS - RISK OF INFECTION, BLEEDING  Contraindication to extractions contd.. Patients with history of radiation to maxilla / mandible Patients who have taken bisphosphonates for osteoporosis / metastatic bone disease LET’S TAKE A BREAK ! #4.PRINCIPLE- ASEPSIS, ACCESS AND VISIBILITY EXAMINING THE ORAL CAVITY, TOOTH IN QUESTION AND RETRACTING CHEEK AND TISSUES TONGUE BLADES MINNESOTA RETRACTOR SELDIN RETRACTOR  CONSENT DISCUSSION OF RISKS, COMPLICATIONS, ALTERNATIVES DOES THE PATIENT REALLY UNDERSTAND?
