Treatment of the impacted and retained teeth is a multidisciplinary approach involving close cooperation between periodontist and orthodontist. Clinical and radiographic examination leading subsequently to diagnosis, remain the most important prerequisites permitting appropriate treatment. Several surgical techniques are available to uncover impacted/retained tooth according to their position within the osseous and dental environment. Moreover, to access to the tooth and to bond an orthodontic anchorage, the surgical techniques used during the surgical exposure must preserve the periodontium integrity. These surgical techniques are based on tissue manipulations derived from periodontal plastic surgery, permitting to establish and maintain long-term periodontal health.
Le traitement des dents incluses et retenues est une démarche pluridisciplinaire impliquant une coopération étroite entre parodontiste et orthodontiste. Le temps le plus important de la gestion de ces cas reste le diagnostic et par conséquent l’examen clinique et radiologique qui le permettent. En fonction de la position de la dent, au sein des structures osseuses et dentaires environnantes, diverses techniques chirurgicales permettront le dégagement. Outre l’accès à la dent et la possibilité de coller un ancrage orthodontique, les techniques opératoires mises en place lors du dégagement chirurgical doivent respecter l’intégrité du parodonte de la dent dégagée, ainsi que le parodonte des dents adjacentes. L’ensemble de ces techniques fait référence à la chirurgie plastique parodontale pour favoriser le maintien de la santé parodontale à long terme.
