Oral Surgery Flashcards
Principles of surgery
Use sharp blade Firm and continuous stroke Avoid cutting vital structures Blade held perpendicular to epithelial tissues Incisions properly placed
Commonly cut vital structure
IAN
Blade for extraoral incision or skin
10
Blade for stabbing or incison and drainage
11
Blade for distal areas with hook
Commonly used in max tuberosity
12
Blade for intraoral incision
Commonly used in mandible
15
Major organ responsible for hemostasis
Liver
Common problems in hemostasis
Loss of visibilty
Hematoma
Major problem in hemostasis
Hypovolemic and hemorrhagic shock
Earliest sign of hemorrhagic shock
Tachycardia or nervousness
FBS used to
Assess good or poor wound healing
INR used to
Check the viscosity of blood
Normal INR
2 to 3
INR of px taking anticoagulant
3 to 4
Test for px with insulin-dependent DM
Glucose sensitivity test
Test for px taking aspirin
Bleeding time
Test for px taking dicumarol
Prothrombin time
Test for px undergoing heparin therapy
PTT
Ways to obtain hemostasis
Place pressure Use of heat Suturing Pressure dressing Vasoconstrictive agents
Place pressure on the area of bleeding
Small vessels
Latge vessels
20 to 30 seconds
5 to 10 minutes
Use of heat
Mosquito hemostat
Electrocautery
Best way to obtain hemostasis
Pressure dressing using surgicel
Vasoconstrictive agents for 7 minutes
Epinephrine
Thrombin
Collagen
Stages of wound healing
Inflammatory
Fibroplastic or Proliferative
Remodelling or Wound Maturation
Inflammatory stage
2 to 5 days
Fibrin
Proliferative stage
2 days to 3 weeks
Granulation tissue
Fibrinolysis
Fibronectin
Responsible for fibrinolysis
Plasmin
Fibronectin
High molecular weight glycoprotein
Stabilize fibrin
Recognize foreign materials
Chemotactic factor for fibroblast
Guides macrophages
Components of granulation tissue
Fibroblast - 3rd day after injury
Endothelial cells
Angioblast
Wound maturation
Replaced by new collagen to resist tensile force
Elastin- scar
Collagen- keloid
Highest chance to form scar
Frenum
Healing
No tissue loss
Odontectomy
Primary intention
Healing
Gap between edges
Extraction socket
Deep ulcers
Secondary intention
Healing
Uses tissue grafts
Tertiary intention
Concussion of nerve
Neuropraxia
Damaged to epineural sheath
Axonotmesis
Complete loss of nerve continuity
Neurotmesis
Disintegration of the distal part of the nerve via phagocytosis
Wallerian degeneration
Best time to remove impacted teeth
2/3 root formed because less bone reduction

White line
Amber line
Red line
Highest point of impacted in relation to adjacent tooth
White line
Portion of impacted exposed to external oblique ridge
Amber line
Refers to level of access for elevating the impacted
Red line
Pre-surgical procedures
Scrub technique
Surgical drapping
Eye patch
Surgical Procedures
Reflecting adequate flaps for accessibility
Removal of overlying bone
Sectioning the tooth
Delivery of the sectioned tooth with elevator
Debridement of wound and wound closure
MPE
Molt #9
Prying motion: pointed-end to elevate the ST
Push stroke: broad-end to slid under the flap
Pull stroke: shred the periosteum
Austin and Minnesota
Flap retractors
For removal of bone
Surgical bur 8
Chisel with mallet
Bone rongeur
Bur for sectioning the tooth
Bur 703
Objectives for sectioning the tooth
Shorten the procedure
Minimize the amount of bone removal
Minimize the exertion force necessary to remove the tooth
Principles of elevator
Lever- most common
Wedge
Wheel and axle- for multiple exo
Done by irrigating the wound during surgery and closure by forcing large volume of fluid under pressure on the wound
Decontamination
Done with careful removal from injured tissue of necrotic, foreign and severely ischemic material that would impede wound healing
Debridement
Used to mecahnically debride both the superior aspect of the socket and inferior edge of the reflected soft tissue
Periaoical curette
Used to smoothen any sharp, rough edges of bone in pulling action
Bone file
Failure to remove dental sac
Residual cyst
Used to remove any remnants of the dental follicle
Mosquito hemostat
Absorbable sutures absorb via
Proteolytic activity
Best suturing material
Vicryl
Most common intraoral non-absorbable suture
Silk
Main function of suturing
Stabilize tissue flap
Most common suturing technique
Interrupted suture
Most common suturing material
3-0 silk
Soft tissue forceps
Adsons Stillies Allis Russian Semkin-taylor Babcocks
Forceps used to hold small tissue flaps
Adson
Long adson’s forcep
Stillies
Forcep used to remove EPULIS FISSURATUM and LARGE tissue flap
Allis
Forcep used to hold cystic lining
Babcock
Forcep used to hold tissue flap during suturing
Semkin-taylor
Used to cut excessive tissues
Metzenbaum
Most common post-operative condition
Pain and edema
Most common surgical complication
Root displacement
Impacted maxillary 3rd molar displaced into
Infratemporal space
Impacted mandibular 3rd molar
Submandibular space
Caldwell-luc approach
Buccal plate of canine
To access max.sinus
2 to 6mm oroantral communication

More than 7mm oroantral communication
Pedicle or BERGER’S flap
Happens when suturing the wound under tension or too tight
Wound dehiscence- internal oblique ridge (common)
