Resumen
Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica sobre Pericoronaritis, donde se exponen los criterios más actuales en cuanto al diagnóstico clínico, radiológico y microbiológico de dicha patología. Se ha identificado la Pericoronaritis como un proceso infeccioso agudo que está relacionado con los tejidos blandos que rodean la corona de un diente retenido (terceros molares inferiores, que tienen una posición vertical, con inclinación hacia distal y que estén cerca o en el plano de la oclusión, con mayor frecuencia). Es el más frecuente de los accidentes mucosos, aparece generalmente en la segunda y tercera décadas de la vida. La etiología más aceptada en la actualidad es la invasión de microrganismos al saco pericoronario que rodea la corona del diente retenido, donde hay condiciones ideales para el crecimiento bacteriano, que puede estar favorecido por la irritación traumática de este. La Pericoronaritis puede desarrollarse por diferentes formas de presentación: Pericoronaritis aguda congestiva o serosa, Pericoronaritis aguda supurada y Pericoronaritis crónica; esta afección puede ocasionarle graves complicaciones al paciente que la padece si no es correctamente atendida, la recidiva de esta puede ocurrir hasta que la corona del diente retenido sea totalmente liberada. El pronóstico, una vez establecido el tratamiento, ya sea quirúrgico o medicamentoso, es favorable para el paciente.
A literature review on Pericoronitis , where the current criteria are discussed in terms of clinical , radiological and microbiological diagnosis of this pathology. Pericoronitis has been identified as an acute infectious process that is related to the soft tissue surrounding the crown of an impacted tooth ( third molars , which have a vertical position with distal tipping and are at or near the plane of the occlusion , most often ) . It is most prevalent in the mucosal accidents, usually appears in the second and third decades of life. The most accepted etiology is currently invading microorganisms to pericoronal sac surrounding the crown of the impacted tooth , where ideal conditions for bacterial growth , which may be favored by this traumatic irritation . The Pericoronitis can develop different styles: Pericoronitis acute congestive or serous Pericoronitis Pericoronitis chronic and acute suppurative , this condition can cause serious complications to patient suffering , if not properly cared for, the recurrence of this can happen until the crown the impacted tooth is fully released. The forecast , once established treatment , whether surgical or medication , it is favorable for the patient.
