| Abstract | ||
| Background: The less common postoperative morbidity following third molar surgery such as inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia, lingual nerve paresthesia, adjacent tooth injury and post-perative bleeding is affected by a number of risk factors. Material and methods: In this prospective randomized study 159 consecutive cases in which removal of impacted lower third molars in 107outpatients were evaluated. Five groups of variables have been studied which are regarded as a potential factor for one or more than one complication after mandibular third removal Results: The incidence of inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia, lingual nerve paresthesia, adjacent tooth injury and post-operative bleeding is addressed with location of the most significant risk factors. Conclusions: It was found that the difficulty of surgical extraction and the operation time are the main high significant risk factors; sex and smoking aren’t significant factors for any complication. The oldest age group has a little statistics significant differences.
