Atraumatic tooth extraction is a medical process of removing a bad tooth with the use of specific tools while causing less trauma or damage to the surrounding gum tissues and bones. It’s all about changing the traditional painful way of tooth extraction. Through the process, a dentist can remove a tooth predictably within five minutes or less resulting in less anxiety and less tissue damage.〔 ==Procedure== Before atraumatic tooth extraction is initiated, the dentist ought to examine the structures and forces that hold the tooth in question. The dentist may anaesthetize the patient and also sever the periodontal attachment of the tooth with a soft tissue curette or any other similar instrument.〔 The next step is to choose the most suitable Physics Forceps which are actually the instruments that make the entire process simple and less traumatic.〔 In conventional tooth extraction, ordinary forceps are usually used to wobble the tooth out of its socket before utilizing horizontal forceps to extract it. This often generates a loud cracking sound alongside causing damages to the surrounding tissues of the tooth. When it comes to atraumatic tooth extraction, only vertical forceps are used in removing the tooth just as a corkscrew is used in removing the cork from a bottle of wine. This helps in preserving the socket and the bones that surround the tooth.〔The atraumatic tooth extraction technique works on any kind of bad tooth including a tooth that is broken down or has not been crowned. It also works for a tooth that has lengthy vertical fracture.〔 Meanwhile, when multi-rooted teeth are in need of removal, the first step should be to remove the crown and section the roots with a conventional high-speed handpiece and carbide fissure bur. At this point, the roots can be treated just as single-rooted teeth and be removed using the same technique. Aside from the above, there are other new methods that can be used in atraumatic tooth extraction. Dental experts are coming up with new clinical reports and studies in that regard. One of such latest approaches is the use of air-driven sonic instrument with specially designed inserts. This surgical technique provides the clinician with an efficient method for atraumatic tooth extraction and preservation of an intact labial plate. Another recent report presents ultrasonic surgery (Piezosurgery) as a modern and predictable method of carrying out atraumatic tooth extraction and subsequent implant site preparation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Atraumatic tooth extraction」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
