Abstract:

The prevention of complications after exodontia has drawn increasing attention from oral surgeons. Malfunction of the inferior alveolar nerve, including paresthesia, following the extraction of the mandibular third molar extensively affects the quality of patients’ lives. At the end of the 20th century, coronectomy or intentional partial odontectomy was introduced into the oral surgical field from prosthodontics. This procedure has been proven to be effective in terms of safety, practicality, and complication rate after years of research and clinical application. This article aims to provide new insights into the practice of exodontia of the mandibular third molar by making a comprehensive review of coronectomy.

Key words: mandibular third molar, coronectomy, inferior alveolar nerve, residual root
