Outline
•Review surgical tray/ instruments
•Flap reflection
•Single rooted teeth extraction:
–Proximators/ apical retention
forceps
•Multi‐rooted teeth: premolars
–Sectioning with handpiece
–Elevators/ Cryer elevators
Outline- continued
•Root tip retrieval
– Root tip pick
– 701 bur/ troughing
•Impacted teeth
– Flap
– Bony exposure
– Sectioning

Outline- continued
•Alveoloplasty
•Suturing
–Closure of 3rd molar flap
–Transposed papilla closure over
alveoloplasty area
•Biopsy
–Excision with margin
–Primary closure w/ undermining
flaps
Strategy
• Mentally visualize the
procedure from start to
finish
• Anticipate what
instruments will be
needed, and have them
ready/ readily available
• Anticipate complications
• Headlight, loupes
• “Measure twice, cut
once”
• Local •Curette
• Retractor(s) •Hemostat(s)
• Mouth prop •Suction tip(s)
• Scalpel •Needle holder/
• Periosteal elevator suture
• Tooth elevator(s) •Scissors
• Universal forcep •Gauze

Exodontia Surgical Setup
Extraction Instruments
•Elevators
•Periotomes/ Proximators
•Forceps
Elevators
•Used to
–Luxate teeth
• Try to luxate
against bone
• Avoid
excessive
pressure on
adjacent
crowns
–Elevate roots

Forceps Extraction
TOOTH LUXATION
• Max. Anterior MOVEMENT
• Max. Premolar ¾B‐L, Rotation
• Max. Molar ¾B‐L
• Mand. Incisor ¾B
• Mand. Canine/PM ¾B‐L
• Mand Molar ¾B‐L, Rotation
¾B‐L
Surgical Handpiece
•Allow sectioning of tooth and
removal of bone
•Does not allow air to vent into the
surgical field
•Subcutaneous emphysema
4
Pig Jaw Anatomy
Incisors: 3
Canine: 1
Premolars: 4
Molars: 3
•Purpose of flap is to gain access to
surgical site, to obtain adequate
visualization of field and avoid
trauma to soft tissues.
• Should be based on anatomy, blood
supply
• Base broader than apex
•Releasing incision
5
Flap Reflection
Surgical Extractions
•Single‐Rooted Teeth
•Multi‐Rooted Teeth
Single-Rooted Teeth
Maxillary/ Mandibular Anteriors
•Atraumatic extraction
desireable
•Want to minimize flap
reflection and bone removal
•Proximators are ideally suited
for this task
6
Atraumatic Flapless Extraction
Multi-Rooted Teeth
• Bicuspid/
Premolar
• Molars
7
Root Retrieval
•Root tip
elevators
–Trough with 701
Impactions
• Visualize
procedure from
start to finish
• Have instruments
available
• Adequate flap to
visualize target
and minimize soft
tissue trauma
8
Bony Exposure
• Sweep away bone
• The tooth crown is
harder than bone
• Light pressure
• Let the bur “drive”
itself
• Fully expose
furcation to facilitate
sectioning
Impacted Teeth
• Expose crown
• Bisect crown/
roots
• Deliver
sections
Alveoloplasty
•Multiple adjacent teeth
•Removal of interdental bone, and
contouring of ridge
•Eliminate sharp edges, sore spots
9
Alveoloplasty
Premolar Sites
•Rongeur
•Bone File
•Rotary instruments
Rongeur
Rotary Instrument
10
Suturing
• To reapproximate
surgical flaps
• To hold packing in
place
• A suture alone does
not hold the blood
clot in place.
Suture
• Size
3-0: basic
4-0: finer
• Type
Silk
Gut
Plain
Chromic
Vicryl (PGA)
Transposed
Papillae
Closure
11
Transposed Papillae Closure
• Optimizes the
amount of bone
present at
extraction site
• Reduces early (1st 6
months) ridge
resorbtion by about
75%
•After extraction socket is
debrided and irrigated, graft
material is packed into socket
•Barrier membrane is placed over
graft
•Sutured in place
12
Biopsy Technique
• Excise down to
connective tissue
layer
• If ulcerative, biopsy
near edge
• If suspect
malignancy, biopsy
“worst” area
• If excising, excise
completely,
consider closure
