Résumé

L'étude a eu lieu en trois centres. 717 molaires inférieures enclavées ont été arrachées de 517 malades. 69,1 % des extractions étaient faites pour les malades de 25 ans et en dessous.
Un total de 96,1 % extractions ont été faites sous anesthésie locale alors que 3,9 % ont été faites sous anesthésie générale. La technique de la division des os véhiculaires a été utilisée pour 2,5 % extractions alors que le système de crampon a été utilisé pour 699 extractions.
Le choix d'anesthésie était basé sur la préférence du malade, le nombre de dents à arracher et la profondeur de l'enclave. La plupart des molaires inférieures ayant une profondeur de 5 mm ou plus peuvent être arrachées à travers l'anesthésie locale. Lorsque les extractions sont faites à partir du système de crampon sous l'anesthésie locale, la paresthésie du nerf dental inférieur et les alvéolites dentaires sont plus fréquentes alors que la paresthésie du nerf lingual était plus fréquent quand les extractions sont faites en utilisant la technique de l'alvéolectomie linguale sous anesthésie générale.

Abstract
Impacted mandibular third molars : septh of impaction and surgical methods of extraction among nigerians

This study was conducted in three centres. 717 impacted mandibular third molars were extracted from 517 patients. 69,1 % of the extractions were in patients aged 25 years and below. A total of 96,1 % extractions were done under local anaesthesia while 3,9 % were under general anaesthesia. The lingual bone split technique was used in 2,5 % extractions while the bur was used in 97,5 % extraction.
The patient’s preference, the number of teeth to be extracted, and the depth of impaction were the main predicators in the choice of anaesthesia. Majority of third molars with a depth of 5 mm or more were extracted under local anaesthesia. Paraesthesia of the inferior dental nerve and alveolar osteitis were more frequent when extractions were done using the bur technique under local anaesthesia, while paraesthesia of the lingual nerve was more when extractions were performed using the lingual bone split technique under general anaesthesia.
