ABSTRACT Introduction Palatal injection, in spite of many modernized injection techniques, remains a painful experience for the patient. The aim of this study was to demonstrate if maxillary third molars could be extracted using only buccal infiltration of 2% lignocaine hydrochloride (HCl) with adrenaline 1:80,000 without the need for supplemental palatal injection. Materials and methods Three hundred patients were selected randomly and divided into two groups of 150 each. In the experimental group, 2 ml of 2% lignocaine hydrochloride with 1:80000 adrenaline was injected into the buccal vestibule of the tooth to be extracted. Extraction was performed after a waiting period of 7 minutes postinjection. Equal number of 150 patients were used as control and were subjected to the same protocol, with additional palatal injection. Pain experienced during extraction of both groups were recorded using visual analog scale and faces pain scale. Mann-Whitney test was used to analyze pain between both the groups. Results Statistical analysis of the two groups, experimental and control groups do not defer with respect to visual analog and faces pain score. Conclusion Palatal injection for extraction of maxillary third molar is not mandatory. How to cite this article Pawar S, Desai RA, Padhye M, Shevale V, Khosa R, Keswani E, Thakker S, Shah V.

Third molar extraction remains one of the most common surgical procedures performed in dentistry either by intra-alveolar or trans alveolar methods; yet such a common surgical procedure sometimes results in relatively rare complications. The incidence of complications can be reduced by proper preoperative planning, knowledge of the surgical anatomy, good surgical technique and recognition of complications. Sub conjunctival haemorrhage after maxillary third molar extraction is one such complication, which till now not more than three cases of similar findings have been reported in the literature. The purpose of this article is to present a rare case of sub conjunctival haemorrhage after maxillary right third molar extraction in a 56-year-old female reported at The Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Sri Manakula Vinayagar Medical College and Hospital, Pondicherry, India.

<p><strong>Aim</strong>: To study the effect of age, gender, side and impaction types on surgical difficulty during mandibular third molar extraction through the data collected over a period of one year by single maxillofacial surgeon. All the extractions were performed under the same environment and conditions.</p><p><strong>Methods</strong>: Descriptive clinical study of 401 patients was carried out between the ages of 16 to 45years. Age, gender, impaction side and impaction types (according to the winter classification) were recorded on proforma. Duration of surgery for each patient was recorded after starting incision to the completion of suture which was divided into less than 10 minutes (mild), 11 to 20 minutes (moderate) and above 21 minutes (severe). Pearson’s Chi-square test was used for data analysis and significance level was less than or equal to 0.05.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>: Among 401 participants, 225 (56.1%) were male and 176 (43.9%) were female. Mean age was 31.5 years and mean operation time was 17.59 minutes. After statistical analysis there was a significant correlation among gender and side of impaction where <em>p </em>value is 0.043 0.048 respectively.</p><p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: There is a statistically significant correlation between gender and side of impaction with duration of surgery which is considered as the objective measure of surgical difficulty whereas age and impaction types didn’t show any significant correlation. </p>
