Localization of Broken Surgical Bur in the Third Molar Socket and Its Retrieval
Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Oral and Dental Research - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Abstract:Surgical removal of a broken instrument tip in the mandibular posterior region can be a difficult procedure due to proximity of vital anatomical structures of the region. Moreover, accessibility in that area is another factor that adds onto the difficulty. Thus localization of that foreign object is key in its successful surgical retrieval. Here we present such a case, with its complete management and a careful technique of retrieval. Keywords: surgical burr, foreign body, retrieval.
