Abstract

Introduction:P Avulsion of the lower wisdom tooth is the most common procedure performed in oral surgery. The close anatomical relationship between the roots and the mandibular canal increases the incidence of damage to the inferior alveolar nerve during extraction. These lesions can have serious consequences on oral function as well as psychological repercussions on the well-being of the patient.

Material and Method: PThis is a systematic review of the literature carried out according to the criteria published by the international PRISMA recommendations: A systematic literature search was performed from database PubMed and Cochrane Library during a period from 2015 to 2021

Discussion and Conclusion: PCoronectomy of wisdom teeth is a surgical technique that minimizes the risk of nerve damage by removing the crown of the tooth, leaving the roots intact in situ. This technique is mainly indicated when the roots are closely linked to the nerve and the extraction of the tooth could result in damage or severing of the inferior alveolar nerve.

This work aims to develop the latest news regarding the extraction of wisdom teeth as well as to compare the results of each technique allowing the practitioner to make prudent decisions.
