Dislodged lower right third molar tooth into the parapharyngeal space.

UNLABELLED Lower third molar teeth can be dislodged into fascial tissue spaces when they are extracted or elevated out of their sockets. Thankfully, this rarely occurs. We present a case report on a lower right wisdom tooth dislodged into the right parapharyngeal space on its removal from the socket and the subsequent management of this rare complication. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Though a rare complication, clinicians have to be aware that lower third molars can be dislodged into tissue spaces and the importance of prompt appropriate management.
