Risk factor analysis for perioperative complications in impacted third molar surgery – a single center experience

ConclusionNext to the risk factors from above, the present study is one of the first showing that patients who were primarily operated on by an oral surgeon (DMD) and not a maxillofacial surgeon (MD, DMD) showed higher rates of OAC and IAN hypesthesia in impacted third molar extraction. The results of this study can serve as a baseline for further studies to investigate complication patterns in impacted third molar surgery.
