Oral surgery. Diagnostic, prognostic, and treatment planning considerations.

The surgical management of a patient begins at the moment of presentation for treatment and does not end until the problem is resolved and health restored. Alternatively, referral may be good management in some cases. Any procedure accomplished along the way is but one event in the course of overall surgical management. A regard for the basic requirements and principles of good surgery integrated with a careful consideration of the treatment planning and prognostic indicators for the removal of teeth completes a sequential evaluation of the total patient, his pathosis and his ability to tolerate and respond to the treatment. Guiding principles, careful procedures and continued postoperative concern form a triad of good practice.

Life-threatening infection after extraction of third molars.

Life-threatening infection after the extraction of the right maxillary and mandibular third molars, and the minimal early treatment of the ensuing complications, has been described. Perhaps, if proper incision and drainage and adequate antibiotic treatment had been instituted immediately after extraction, the ensuing complications could have been avoided. There will never be total agreement regarding the optimal time to surgically remove a tooth. The latter is based on individual preferences, past experiences, and clinical successes of the practitioner. However, if extraction is decided on, the surgeon must be able to recognize the early development of complications and institute appropriate treatment.
