Does the addition of cone-beam CT to panoral imaging reduce inferior dental nerve injuries resulting from third molar surgery? A systematic review Ischaemic injury due to entrapment within a bony canal (IAN) with continued bleeding or scar formation.

Neurosensory Deficits of Inferior Alveolar Nerve Following Impacted Mandibular Third Molar Extraction: Comparison of One-Stage Complete Extraction with Two-Stage Partial Coronectomy Surgical Technique If complete neural transection or severe nerve injury is suspected, the patient should be informed of the situation and the lingual or inferior alveolar nerves require immediate exploration and or nerve repair by an experienced surgeon. Surgical exploration of damaged nerves usually involves an intraoral approach and decompressions (removal of surrounding scar tissue) with gentle debridement and occasionally excision of a neuroma with good apposition of the nerve endings. Essentially we cannot 'fix' the effects of nerve injury and as with many medical conditions, the apparent normal appearance of a damaged or repaired nerve is not reflected by normal function or indeed a symptom free patient. One recent study has shown that significant improvement in nerve function can be achieved by specialist surgical investigation and repair when undertaken within three months of the injury and therefore recommends early surgical intervention. No improvement of symptoms by three months indicates that a return to normal function is unlikely and that consideration should be given to referral of the patient to a clinician with specialist interest for management of the patient usually using reassurance, education, non-surgical managements (medical pain management, counselling techniques) and rarely surgery. Inferior alveolar nerve However, the larger the changes that need to be made, the more time it takes. Longer treatment means more office visits, more aligners, and any additional costs related to imaging and attachments. As a result, more complex cases usually mean a bigger price tag. 2.
