🦷 Surgical extraction of an impacted third molar with severe root curvature in close proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve 🚨. Pre-operative assessment revealed a dilacerated root directly adjacent to the inferior alveolar canal 📍. Patient was advised for a CBCT scan 📸 but patient was not willing and refused 🙅♂️. Although consent was taken from the patient 📝.
Conservative surgical approach was chosen to protect the nerve 💡: crown sectioning followed by careful root removal ensured a safe and predictable outcome 🌟, with no postoperative complications 🙏. Precision 💪, planning , and respect for the anatomy 💯 are key in such cases 🦷.
