Mandibular incisor root remnants in rabbits: one of the most delicate and frustrating procedures in exotic animal oral surgery.
In this video, I show an extraoral ventral approach for the extraction of retained mandibular incisor roots performed using a piezoelectric surgical technique.
The real revolution of this approach is that it is not based on force.
There is no need for traumatic movements with elevators or luxators, nor for aggressive bone removal with rotary burs.
Piezoelectric micro-vibrations allow us to:
• perform micrometric and highly precise osteotomies
• create a controlled cleavage plane around the root
• preserve as much mandibular bone as possible
• dramatically reduce the risk of iatrogenic mandibular fractures
• work in an extremely clean surgical field with outstanding visibility
All of this results in a more predictable, more ergonomic, and far less traumatic surgery for the patient.
In rabbits, where just a few millimeters can make the difference between surgical success and major complications, precision changes everything.
No Force, Technology.
