Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral Surgery

Background:

  • Minimally invasive dental procedures are increasingly preferred.
  • Retained tooth roots often necessitate surgical extraction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present two new techniques for atraumatic tooth extraction using dental forceps.
  • To provide alternatives to surgical procedures for specific tooth root removals.

Main Methods:

  • Describing two novel techniques employing conventional dental extraction forceps.
  • Applying the first technique to incisors, canines, and premolars.
  • Applying the second technique to lower first molars.

Main Results:

  • The described techniques facilitate the atraumatic removal of retained tooth roots.

  • These methods are applicable in common, well-defined clinical situations.
  • Conclusions:

    • The proposed 'surgical forceps techniques' offer a viable, less invasive alternative for specific tooth extractions.
    • These hybrid procedures can potentially avoid more complex surgical interventions.
