This document provides an overview of the management of impacted third molars and maxillary canines. It discusses the causes and prevalence of impacted teeth, classifications of impactions, indications and contraindications for extraction, surgical procedures, and complications. Impacted third molars are the most common impacted teeth, with mandibular molars more prevalent than maxillary. Classification systems describe angulation, depth of impaction, and root morphology. Extraction is indicated for pathology but not for asymptomatic teeth. Surgical procedures involve exposure, bone removal if needed, tooth sectioning or elevation, and closure. Post-operative issues may include pain, swelling, and nerve injury.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

3. Impacted vs. Unerupted
An impacted tooth is one that fails to erupt into the dental arch within the
usual range of expected time.
The term unerupted teeth includes impacted teeth and teeth that are in the
process of erupting.
4. Causes of impaction
Adjacent teeth
Dense overlying bone
Excessive soft tissue
Genetic abnormality
Most commonly: inadequate space in the dental arch.
5. Prevalence
Maxillary and mandibular third molars are the most commonly impacted
teeth, the Mandibular ones are more common] [reason? Age of eruption?]
Followed by Maxillary canine and mandibular premolars
6. Normal development
The lower third molar begins in a horizontal angulation, then angulation
changes from horizontal to mesioangular to vertical.
Failure of rotation from the mesioangular to the vertical direction is the
most common cause of lower third molars becoming impacted.
The second major factor is space
7. Indications for removal of impacted teeth
Prevention of caries
Prevention of periodontal disease
Prevention of Pericoronitis
Prevention of root resorption
Prevention of odontogenic cysts and tumors

8. General rule
all impacted teeth should be removed
unless removal is contraindicated.
The practice of prophylactic removal of
pathology-free impacted third molars
should be discontinued in the NHS. [NICE
GUIDELINES 2015]
9. NICE GUIDELINES 2015
Surgical removal of impacted third molars should be limited to patients with
evidence of pathology:
Unrestorable caries
Non-treatable pulpal and/or periapical pathology
Cellulitis
Abscess and osteomyelitis
Internal/external resorption of the tooth or adjacent teeth
Fracture of tooth
Disease of follicle including cyst/tumor
