Gangnam Station Wisdom Tooth Extraction Case
― Vietnamese Patient, Emergency Impacted Wisdom Tooth Extraction (Sectioned Extraction Completed Within 10 Minutes)
Hello.
I am Dr. Ha-seong Kim, the director of Yonsei Luminous Dental Clinic.
Today, I would like to introduce an emergency wisdom tooth extraction case involving a foreign patient from Vietnam.
The patient suddenly developed
extreme pain around the lower left molar
and visited us for emergency treatment.ㅠㅠ

The panoramic X-ray showed that
the lower-left wisdom tooth was completely impacted,
and what was even more unusual was that
the roots were severely curved...ㅠㅠ
In cases like this, the more complex the root shape,
the higher the difficulty of the extraction becomes.
If approached incorrectly, the roots may fracture and remain in place,
or the surrounding tissues may be damaged,
so the treatment plan for the Gangnam Station wisdom tooth extraction
must be carefully established.

After determining the approach direction for the wisdom tooth,
we chose to section it into four parts
rather than attempting to remove it whole.
The more force is applied in an attempt to remove an impacted wisdom tooth all at once,
the greater the strain on the surrounding bone and nerves.
By dividing the tooth into several pieces and removing them one by one,
we can extract it with considerably less force and greater safety.
Because the roots were curved,
this method was especially important!!

During the Gangnam Station wisdom tooth extraction,
we took X-rays at intervals
to check at each stage that no roots had been left behind.
One of the main concerns in an impacted wisdom tooth extraction
is whether any root fragments remain.
Since areas that are difficult to see with the naked eye
were carefully checked with X-rays,
we were able to proceed with the extraction with confidence.

As a result, despite being a complex case,
we were able to complete the extraction cleanly within 10 minutes.
After the Gangnam Station wisdom tooth extraction,
the patient, who had been struggling with pain, felt much more comfortable,
and I was also pleased that we could quickly resolve the emergency situation~^^ㅎㅎ
We also examined the upper #28 wisdom tooth,
and since it had the potential to cause problems in the future,
we extracted it on the same day as well.
This is a KakaoTalk message my colleague sent meㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I feel proud.
