Clinical Effect Analysis of the Cruciform Tooth Division Method in the Mandibular Level and Low Impacted Tooth Extraction
Objective To analyze the effect of using the cruciform tooth division method in the Mandibular Level and Low Impacted Tooth Extraction.Methods A total of 65 Mandibular Level and Low Impacted Tooth Extraction patients treated at the Department of Stomatology,The Second People's Hospital of Jiaozuo,from June 2021 to June 2022 were randomly selected and divided into groups according to the extraction method.Group A(31 cases)received conventional minimally invasive tooth extraction,while Group B(34 cases)received the cruciform tooth division method.The Dental Fear Survey(DFS)scores,postoperative complication rates,blood pressure and heart rate,mouth opening limitation and swelling degree,and SF-36 quality of life scores were compared between the two groups.Results The DFS scores and postoperative complication rates in Group B were lower than those in Group A,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in heart rate between the two groups 5 minutes before surgery and 10 minutes after surgery(P>0.05).However,the heart rate during tooth extraction in Group B was lower than that in Group A,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in blood pressure between the two groups 5 minutes before surgery,during tooth extraction,and 10 minutes after surgery(P>0.05).The proportion of patients with no mouth opening limitation in Group B was higher than that in Group A,and the proportion of patients with grade III limitation was lower than that in Group A,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of patients with grade I and grade II limitations between the two groups(P>0.05).The proportion of patients with no swelling in Group B was higher than that in Group A,and the proportion of patients with severe swelling was lower than that in Group A,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of patients with mild and moderate swelling between the two groups(P>0.05).One month after surgery,the SF-36 scores in Group B were higher than those in Group A,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Conclusion The use of the cruciform tooth division method in the extraction of Mandibular Level and Low Impacted Tooth Extraction can reduce patients'fear of treatment,has a smaller impact on blood pressure and heart rate,is highly safe,results in less postoperative mouth opening limitation and swelling,and allows for a quick recovery of quality of life.
