Resumen
En la actualidad, los terceros molares representan un reto para el
odontólogo, dado que este debe reconocer si las mismas erupcionarán
dentro de la cavidad bucal, o si se quedaran retenidas dentro del hueso.
El diagnostico y plan de tratamiento en Odontología se basa en el
examen clínico y se complementa con el uso de exámenes auxiliares
como la radiografía.1
Las radiografías son una herramienta importante en el diagnostico de
lesiones patológicas que no son evidentes en el examen clínico.
De aquí que es indispensable que el odontólogo, como profesional de la
salud familiarizado con el uso de la radiografía para la identificación y
reconocimiento de factores que indiquen que el tercer molar va hacer
erupción en la cavidad bucal o va a quedar retenido.2
En este estudio, el examen clínico y radiográfico, se utilizo como método
de diagnóstico para evaluar la posición del tercer molar inferior y
establecer su ubicación en relación al segundo molar y el borde anterior
de la rama del maxilar inferior y así poder determinar si hay necesidad de
hacer extracción quirúrgica o exodoncia convencional de la misma.
