59
Simple Extraction: Sever Soft Tissue Attachment
Use periostea Elevator: * loosen gingival fibers & PDL attached to tooth * confirms good anesthesia allows apical placement of forceps
60
Simple Extraction: Luxate tooth with elevator
Face of blade: * against tooth your extracting Back of Blade: * against alveolar crest Find a purchase point **Lever** * fulcrum=alveolar bone * not 100% on adjacent tooth * = EXPANSION OF BONE & TEAR PDL
61
Simple Extractoin: Deliver Tooth with Forceps
Slow and deliberate force * tooth should first be moved then removed Motions: Outward (Buccal/Labial): * initial movement for most **permanent** teeth Inward (Lingual/palatal): * initial movement of most **primary** teeth Rotary: * initial movement in conical-rooted teeth Apical: * Always used * avoid excessive pressure in maxillary molars UPPER 1st Premolar **CAUTION W?DEEP BIFURCATION** **NO Rotation** UPPER Molars: * Favor buccal pressure (palatal may push palatal root into sinus)
62
Simple Extraction: Post-Ext
Bend B-L Plates back in place * unless ortho and implants are planned in future CSI: * Curettage * Smooth bone w/bone file or rongeur * Irrigate w/syringe
63

120
Fine Need Aspiration: Pros vs Cons
Pros: * Good at differentiating Benign vs Malignant
121
Incisional Biopsy
Deep Narrow Wedge Cut
122
Incisional Biopsy: Indications

125
Biopsy Techniques
1. Form a Ddx List: Help determine type of biopsy indicated 2. Identify lesion margin w/indelible ink marker 3. use **Block Anesthesia** when you can-- Local Infiltration can distort lesion architecture 4. Dont handle tissue directly (Crush the cells)-- USE TISSUE FORCEPS 5. Sample stored in **10% Formalin (H&E Staining)** or Michaels Medium (direct immunofluorescence if pemphigoid/Pemphigus is suspected)
