Tokyo, Dec. 12 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000060057) titled 'A Multicenter Retrospective Observational Study on the Utility of Apex Position Evaluation for Predicting Sensory Numbness Following Lower Wisdom Tooth Extraction' on Dec. 11.
Study Type:
Observational
Primary Sponsor:
Institute - Nagasaki University
Condition:
Condition - third molar
Classification by malignancy - Others
Genomic information - NO
Objective:
Narrative objectives1 - This study examines the incidence of postoperative sensory numbness, cumulative recovery rate, and risk factors for sensory numbness occurrence by classification based on Ap evaluation. We believe this research enables the assessment of postoperative sensory numbness risk using panoramic radiographs and will contribute to future oral and maxillofacial surgical practice.
Basic objectives2 - Efficacy
Eligibility:
Age-lower limit - 20
years-old
<=
Age-upper limit - Not applicable
Gender - Male and Female

Cases where a panoramic X-ray was taken.
Key exclusion criteria - Cases where the medical record is insufficient and adequate information cannot be obtained.
Cases where a cyst or tumor is present alongside the wisdom tooth and is in contact with the mandibular canal.
Cases where sensory numbness has developed prior to wisdom tooth extraction.
Cases where crown sectioning or a two-stage approach has been selected.
