Comparison Between Odontectomy and Coronectomy: a Systematic Review
Objectives: The purpose of this review was to conduct a systematic review regarding pre-operative precautions, possible interopertive risks, and post-operative complications.
Methods: Previous studies published in January 2015 – December 2020 were searched from Pubmed, Scopus, Science direct for randomized or non-randomized controlled trials. All studies published in English comparing outcomes of odontectomy and coronectomy with complex extraction, near the inferior alveolar nerve canal were included. This systematic review was arranged with 247 cases. After application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 15 articles were included in the study.
Results: Odontectomy is considered safe to be performed if the involvement of the inferior alveolar nerve with minimal risks of post-operative complication. Coronectomy should be performed if it presents post-surgical risk of damaging the inferior alveolar nerve.
Conclusions: Both odontectomy and coronectomy offer the benefit of minimal risks of postoperative complications. The treatment outcomes and the availability of skillfull practitioners who master this technique are recommended for future.
