Surgical emphysema of the mediastinum as a consequence of attempted extraction of a third molar tooth using an air turbine drill.

P G Guest1, S Henderson.   

Abstract

The use of air turbines for the removal of bone or the division of teeth is to be deprecated. Surgical emphysema of the neck and mediastinum as a direct result of the inappropriate use of an air turbine drill to remove an impacted third molar tooth may result in potentially life threatening complications.
