Summary
Surgical extrusion using an atraumatic extraction system (AES) offers a successful method for saving nonrestorable teeth. This technique shows a high success rate and minimal complications, regardless of patient age.
Area of Science:
- Oral Surgery
- Restorative Dentistry
- Periodontology
Background:
- Limited clinical data exists on the feasibility of surgically extruding nonrestorable teeth with subgingival caries.
- Novel techniques for tooth extrusion are emerging to address this gap.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the success rate of tooth extrusion using an atraumatic extraction system (AES).
- To determine the incidence of biological and technical complications associated with AES-assisted tooth extrusion.
Main Methods:
- Fifty-one patients underwent surgical extrusion with AES, followed by endodontic treatment and restoration.
- Clinical and radiographic evaluations were performed on participants with a mean follow-up of 3.1 years.
Main Results:
- A high success rate of 92.2% was observed for extruded teeth.
- Complications included transient resorption (9.8%), bone loss (15.7%), periapical periodontitis (7.8%), and root perforation (5.9%).
- The overall technical complication rate was 9.7%.
Conclusions:
- The atraumatic extraction system (AES) is a viable option for the surgical extrusion of nonrestorable teeth.
- This method is effective across all patient age groups.
- AES facilitates the preservation of teeth that would otherwise be deemed unsalvageable.

Thoracic, aortic arch and abdominal aneurysms are significant vascular conditions that can present with various clinical manifestations and lead to serious complications. Understanding these manifestations and the appropriate diagnostic studies is essential for effective management and treatment.Thoracic Aortic AneurysmsThoracic aortic aneurysms often remain asymptomatic until they reach a size that impinges on adjacent structures. They typically cause deep, diffuse chest pain that radiates to...

585
Hypertension is asymptomatic and also referred to as the "silent killer" until it progresses to a severe stage or causes target organ disease. Patients may experience symptoms stemming from the strain on blood vessels and tissues in various organs or the heart's increased workload.Physical exams might show no abnormalities other than high blood pressure. Signs of vascular damage, when present, correspond to the organs supplied by the affected vessels, leading to target organ damage. For...

The key difference between Superficial Vein Thrombosis (SVT) and Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) lies in their location and severity.Clinical ManifestationsSVT typically presents with localized pain, tenderness, and redness along the course of a superficial vein, often accompanied by a palpable, cord-like structure under the skin. This condition is usually less dangerous than DVT but can be uncomfortable and may lead to complications such as cellulitis or, rarely, a clot extension into the deep...

The key clinical manifestations of Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) include several distinct cardiac symptoms.Carditis, a hallmark of acute rheumatic fever, involves inflammation of the heart's endocardium, myocardium, and pericardium. Chronic RHD often results from recurrent episodes of carditis. Its symptoms include the following:Murmurs are caused by valvular damage, especially to the mitral and aortic valves. Mitral stenosis or regurgitation is common, with characteristic heart murmurs...

Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) presents with diverse symptoms depending on the location and severity of the ulcer. Clinical manifestations of peptic ulcer include dull pain and a burning sensation in the mid-epigastric region.
Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.
