Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the usage of maxillary miniscrew and cross-arch elastics for the orthodontic traction of the impacted mandibular third molar in close proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve to decrease the chance of nerve injury

Detailed description

To investigate the traction of the impacted mandibular third molar away from the inferior alveolar nerve by using the orthodontic miniscrew in the maxillary bone and cross-arch elastic power chain as a temporary anchorage device before extraction to avoid injury of the nerve and neurosensory complications.

Conditions

• Inferior Alveolar Nerve Injuries
