Abstract:
Intentional coronectomy has become a commonplace procedure as an alternative to full third molar removal in order to decrease the occurrence of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury. It is well known that one of the sequelae of this procedure is superior root migration. This is usually not a significant problem as the migrated roots may erupt to a position where they are more readily removed. This report presents a case in which a curvature at the apex of the root displaced the IAN causing neurologic symptoms.
