Misdiagnosis In Exodontia-Our Experience
نویسنده
چکیده
Exodontia is a common dental procedure which is routinely dispensed in our practice. Although the extraction of the tooth has become, in most of the cases, the last resort of treatment, dentists often consider tooth extraction as a minor and unimportant procedure. Sometimes dental surgeons attempt extraction without doing proper diagnosis, hoping that all will go well, but it can become an expensive lesson in ‘chasing without catching’. This paper is designed for general dental practitioners who desire to improve and want to obtain a wide variety of practical clinical information. In this paper, we are presenting the cases which are misdiagnosed and are negligently handled by the local dental practitioners.
