Introduction
 Since the earliest period of history ,the extraction of
tooth has been considered a very formidable procedure by
the layman
 Many patients suffer from “extractionfobia” and are often
difficult to care for despite modern methods of anesthesia
 Many dentists still believe that speed is essential when
extracting teeth
Definition
The painless removal of the whole tooth, or root, with minimal trauma to the
investing tissues, so that the wound heals uneventfully and no post-operative
prosthetic problem is created
Geoffrey L Howe
Principles of Exodontia
 Expansion of bony socket
 Use of lever and fulcrum
 Insertion of wedge
Indications
 Caries in 48.8% cases (Allen 1994), abscess
 Periodontal diseases, in 40.7% cases, to prevent alveolar ridge
resorption
 Tooth with necrosed pulp and periapical lesion, not responding to
endodontic treatment
 Over retained deciduous tooth
 Orthodontic purpose
 Prosthetic purpose
Indications (contd.)
 Unrestorable tooth
 Impacted tooth
 Supernumerary tooth
 Grossly decayed 1st/2nd molar, make space for 3rd molar
 Tooth in fracture line
 Teeth directly involved by cyst and tumor
 Teeth in the area of therapeutic irradiation
 Teeth acting as foci of infection
Contraindications
Absolute
Central
haemangioma
Arteriovenous
malformation
Relative
Acute Cellulitis
Long term steroid
therapy
Liver disorders
Preoperative analysis of patient
 General disease
 Nervousness
 Previous difficulty with extraction
 Oral hygiene status of the patient
 Oral prophylaxis
 Antiseptic mouth rinse
 Clinical examination of the tooth
 Clinical examination of the oral cavity- any prosthesis
Factors complicating extractions
 Restriction by the lips and cheeks
 Movement of the tongue
 Movement of the mandible
 Communication of the mouth with the pharynx and larynx
 Flooding of the oral cavity with micro-organisms
 The related structures such as floor of mouth, tongue, hard and soft
palate may be damaged
Factors of tooth
 Abnormal number of roots
 Abnormal shape of roots
 Unfavourable root pattern
 Caries extending into root
 Ankylosis
 Resorption of root
Types of exodontia
Intraalveolar
Transalveolar
Dental Elevators
 Elevators are single bladed instruments designed to loosen or
remove roots, root fragments, or teeth , which they do by moving
them out of the sockets along a path determined by natural
curvature of the roots.
Rules of using an elevator
 Never use adjacent tooth as fulcrum
 Never use lingual plate as fulcrum
 Never use buccal plate as fulcrum except where odontectomy has
been performed
 Always use finger guards to protect the patient
Principle of Elevators :
 Lever Principle
 Wedge Principle
 Wheel and Axle
Lever Principle
Mechanical Advantage
R * ¼ =
E * ¾
R = 3E
MA=R/E
=3
 Fulcrum is located in between the input effort and the output load
 Resistance * Short Arm = Effort * Long Arm
 Long Arm = ¾ of total arm
 Short Arm = 1/4 of total arm
 Example - Straight elevator (coupland elevator)
Wedge Principle
"shoehorn’.
Mechanical Advantage
Effort * length
= resistance*
height
E*L = R*h
where L= 10
mm ; H = 4
mm
R/E = 10/4 =
2.5
 Wedge is a simple machine & consists of two movable inclined planes which
meet & form a sharp angle
 R – Resistance E – Effort L – Length H - Height R
 E.g. : Apexo Elevator , Warwick James l E
Wheel and Axle
Mechanical Advantage
Effort * radius
of wheel =
resistance *
radius of axle
E* Rw = R * ra
where Rw =
42 ; ra = 9
MA = Rw/ra =
42/9 = 4.6
 A machine made up of two circular objects of different size
 Effort applied to the wheel turns the axle or effort applied to the axle turns
the wheel
 Example : Cross bar elevator , Cryer elevator
Parts of Elevators :
The three basic types of Elevator :
Straight type
Triangle or Pennant-shaped type
Pick type
Straight elevators
Triangle or
Pennant-shaped
type:
Winter’s Crossbar
Cryer’s
Pick type : This type of elevator is used to remove roots. This
instruments is used as a lever to elevate a broken root from
the tooth socket.
Apexo elevators :
 No.302 and 303 apexo elevators are used
Chompret elevators
• a straight, and b curved
Warwick James
Sharp-tipped angled elevators suitable for removal of
root tips
Forceps
 Forceps are the
main instruments
used in the
extraction of teeth.
Forceps help in
dilation of the
alveolar socket,
luxation of tooth
and its removal.
The correct way to hold maxillary
extraction forceps
The correct way to hold mandibular
extraction forceps
Extraction movement
 Primary movement: Along longitudinal axis of
root
 Secondary movement: Main extracting movement
 Rotatory
 Buccolingual or labiolingual
 Mesiodistal
 Lifting the tooth
32
 Upper central and lateral
incisor
Rotation only
 Upper canine
Rotation initially, some labio-
lingual movement may be
needed
 Upper premolar and molar
Bucco-palatal movement
33
 Lower central and lateral
incisor
Rotatory movement
 Lower canine
Rotatory and labio-lingual
 Lower premolar
Rotatory
 Lower molar
Bucco-lingual movement

Exodontia instruments
Transalveolar
extractions
Transalveolar extractions
 Involves the removal of a full thickness mucoperiosteal flap
 Bone obstructing the removal of tooth is cut
 Sectioning of the roots is done
 Entire tooth removed in successive sections
Incision
• Tissue should be handled gently
• Sharp dissection should be used
• Careful hemostasis should be attained
• Tension should be avoided
# 11 Scalpel # 15C Scalpel
# 12 Scalpel
Most endodontic surgery problems can be avoided
by using the following incision rules
 Firm continuous incision
 An incision should not cross an underlying bony defect
 The vertical incision should be in the concavities between bone eminences
 The vertical incision should not extend into the muccobuccal fold
 The termination of the vertical incision at the gingival crest must be at the
mesial or distal line angle of the tooth
 The base of the flap must be at least equal to the width of its free end
An incision should not cross an underlying
bony defect
An incision should not cross an
underlying bony defect
An incision should not cross an
underlying bony defect
An incision should not cross an
underlying bony defect
The vertical incision should be in the
concavities between bone eminences
The vertical incision should not extend
into the muccobuccal fold
The termination of the vertical incision
at the gingival crest must be at the
mesial or distal line angle of the tooth
The base of the flap must be at least
equal to the width of its free end
Goals of flap design
 To allow for complete access and visualization of the
surgical field
 To allow for bone removal and tooth sectioning
 To prevent unnecessary trauma to soft tissue and bony
structures
Principles of flap design
 The flap should offer adequate access and have an
adequate blood supply
 The flap must be of adequate size and fully reflected
 The edges must lie on the sound bone
 Can be maintained with sutures and is expected to
heal

Editor's Notes

  1. Indications for the use of Elevators To reflect mucoperiosteum Elevators can be used to luxate the tooth before applying the forceps for extraction To luxate and remove the tooth from its socket which might fracture when engaged with forceps. To remove a fracture or carious tooth which might fracture when engaged with beaks. To remove inter-radicular bone. To remove a fracture root when the fracture line is below the cervical line.
  2. Lever Principle: The lever principle has three basic components : Fulcrum, effort, and load. In a Lever of first order, the position of fulcrum is between the effort and the load. In this principle, to gain a mechanical advantages the effort arm on one side of the fulcrum should be longer than the effort arm on other side of fulcrum. The force is transmitted at the long effort arm and mechanical advantage is gained at the short load arm. Applied to Elevators : this principle is used in elevators wherein the handle of the elevator represents the effort, and the working end engages the tooth represents load.
