HERNANDEZ ALTEMIR, F.; HERNANDEZ MONTERO, S.; MOROS PENA, M.  and  HERNANDEZ MONTERO, E.. Security device for a better control of impacted third molars during exodontia: A new technique. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2005, vol.27, n.2, pp.109-111. ISSN 2173-9161.

Accidental displacement of impacted third molars is a complication that occasionally occurs during exodontia. The retrieval of these accidentally displaced third molars may be complex due to poor visibility and limited space. We describe an easy technique for a better control of impacted third molars during exodontia based on an anchoring system.

Keywords : Impacted third molars; Anchoring system; Security device; Displacement during exodontia.
