Dental Extraction Case: Lower Left Wisdom Tooth
Patient History:
The patient presented for extraction of a symptomatic lower left third molar with curved roots.

Medically free, with no contraindications for dental surgery.
Anesthesia:
Local anesthesia was achieved using Articaine 4% with epinephrine 1:100,000 to ensure effective pain control.
Soft Tissue Management:
The gingiva was carefully retracted using a periosteal elevator to fully expose the tooth and surrounding structures.
Luxation and Removal:
Tooth luxation was performed using a variety of elevator, facilitating gentle mobilization and minimizing trauma to the alveolar bone.
Socket Management:
Following extraction, the socket was thoroughly debrided using a bone curette and irrigated with sterile saline to remove debris and promote optimal healing.
